Upon opening I was quite surprised at how well this mobile was presented, I do have to say it is most certainly up there along with the major branded ones.
The mobile seems very good quality in the hand and very robust.
I would say it would be a very good work mobile phone as it looks like it would take some beating for it to break but I wouldn’t like to try it, just in case.
The camera quality on the mobile is ok, that being it is not in the same league as the main branded ones but it does indeed do the job and takes simple pictures / videos.
In regards to processing speed, it is a tad slow for me personally and the response rate is not there straight away but if this is being used for work with simply texting and receiving / making calls then it’s ideal.
The battery life is very good and acceptable, in fact I dare say in some cases it is better, as when you have a smart phone that simply delivers its functionality rather to all singing and dancing, well that tends to drain the battery more, but with this it’s solid and reliable, I can say that.
I can receive my emails and have access to all my online accounts and the internet perfectly.
Making calls are loud and clear and same for the other end, so the microphone and speaker function is excellent.
After putting this smart phone through it’s paces I have come to the conclusion that it is fantastic for its cost and reliability.
I can use this easily and it just works without any issues, the build quality the internal components, all work.
It is definitely a brand to watch out for in the future as I reckon with some more hardware upgrades and small improvements, I reckon it will most definitely be up there in line with the likes of Samsung and others!
Very happy and yes, I would very happy purchase this device again.
It has all the flagship features you’d expect in a newly released phone but it also comes with brilliant built-in features that encourages a long-lasting and easy-to-use experience. The phone he’d had before was an android and this has the same interface so was an easy transfer. It’s quick, clear and straightforward to set up. Took some time to transfer all the data from one phone to another but was smooth sailing from there.
The biggest surprise about this phone was it’s strength – it’s very chunky and I’m sure I can throw it across a room with zero damage (it’s definitely had its fair share of being dropped but still looks brand new!). You can use it in extreme weathers or settings without worrying about it getting damaged. The charger port is covered, the screen comes protected and the phone case is built in and very tough. The charge is fantastic too! The price is reasonable, especially when compared to other phones on the market that do the exact same thing but priced 300-400+ more.
My dad’s a hands-on person that needs a reliable phone and doesn’t care for aesthetically pleasing phones with sleek and shiny exteriors – just something that does what it says it does so this has been absolutely perfect. Would definitely recommend for more active/outdoorsy people or just those who prioritise the function of a phone.
The Mediatek G95 processor using Android 12 is a good one dealing with daily tasks without slacking and the storage should be fine for most users with 8GB of RAM and 256 ROM. You also get wireless charging which will be a major boon to many potential buyers. The camera package uses Sony gear and offers very good results if the conditions are favourable with sharp outlines and decent colour repro and the night vision infra red sensors allow you to take some very acceptable night images if that’s something you need.
However, there are some some negatives as well and one stands out above all others-this is not a 5G compatible device which may be a fatal flaw for many. The other issue that concerns me given that the phone is really aimed at the ‘adventure’ market normal use battery life is only 48/72 hours rather than a week as some rivals can offer. The other caveat concern playback of streamed videos and other content where the resolution of the images seems really lacks sharpness and intensity.
I cannot comment on the value money angle as no price is currently advertised, but this phone has the build quality and some premium camera features which you usually find on more expensive models, so if priced competitively it is worth considering if you need a rugged phone and crucially you don’t need 5G.
The phone came very nicely packed in a box. The box not only contains the phone but also some accessories such as a wrist rope, anti explosion film, charger and charging cable. Everything you need to start using phone straightway.
I usually first order screen protector and a case for my new phones before using them but this phone doesn’t even need a phone case because it’s always designed like this.
So the phone is quite big and heavy , especially due to the body design it looks big. The phone is very tough and strongly made, which is ideally for someone who uses a phone outside or mainly for work such as builders, etc because its waterproof, dust proof, shock proof etc. It won’t break even if you drop it.
The phone is easy to set up and easy to use just like other android phones. It has all the functions and app store to add the apps of your choice.
The camera quality is also good, 12mp. Takes nice photos and videos.
The best thing is that it has dual sim option. Soo ideally one sim for work and another personal number.
I don’t need a phone for work currently so use this phone for my toddler to watch youtube . Great for kids because no need to worry about dropping and spilling water and the screen size is quite big too.
overall great phone and definitely recommend it.
This phone is a bit of a beast but I really like it. It is heavy but feels really well made. I think it will be a great phone for anyone working outdoors or who needs a phone designed to take a beating.
The phone is easy enough to work and has a button on the right to turn it on and off. There is a customisable button on the left which I have set 1 click to Google help, and double click for wallet which is useful.
To screen shot you have to press the bottom volume down button and power on at the same time which I find a bit clunky.
I am disappointed with the main cameras, they are ok in good lighting conditions but aren’t great in low light. After coming from am iPhone that is the major let down (however it is cheaper than than one of those).
It also has an IR sensitive monochrome camera which is low resolution but will provide an image even in pitch black conditions.
Overall I am happy with the phone. The sound quality is good, the speaker is decent but the main thing for me is that the battery is amazing. At the end of the day I still have around 50% battery which is incredible when I have been playing music and using other apps.
The wedge shape of the phone makes it more difficult to hold in a conventional in-car mobile phone holder. Having wireless charging is useful as the charge port is hidden away under a rubber stopper at the bottom so it can be waterproof. You have to find the right spot to charge it though with it being so large.
This is a very tough phone, ideal for anyone that does manual work and or needs to use a phone while working outdoors or just clumsy.
It’s specification for the price is really very good.
4gb ram, 64gb storage, 12 mega pixel camera, android 12 out the box.
It also has dual SIM you have your personal number and a work number on the same phone.
The 5180mAh battery will last some people well over a week but even heavy users will get all day everyday from this phone.
It is not a pretty elegant phone and it is not meant be, it is designed for rough and tough user, everyone has dropped there phone and prayed, with this one no praying necessary.
Excellent phone for the price point.
Compared to my regular android phone, It has all the bells and whistles i would expect from an up-to-date android phone, And i noticed it had minimal apps with little to no spyware already installed. This is a relief, As it annoyingly usually takes me hours to remove all the unnecessary apps from other phones i have owned in the past.
This does have some downsides, Such as no 5G connectivity, But it does pick up a good 4G signal, Which allows me to browse on my phone as per normal, But i tend to find 5G signal in most areas quite sketchy at best, So this really does not affect my outlook on this phone.
The camera is decent, Not the best, But has a lot of features such as pro photo mode and endless video options to mess around and finish off pictures with. The best part is the battery life, As it can last triple the time of a normal phone on standby, And when in use, Still holds a decent amount of juice.
This definitely stands out from the crowd as a hard wearing and easy to use phone with all the features i want.
