What are rugged phones key features?

Understanding rugged phones key features can be tricky. This article will highlist the best features when purchasing a tough phone.

Rugged mobile phones are not just beneficial for those working in heavy industry. Whatever your profession, using a rugged phone gives you peace of mind that it won’t suffer from any unexpected accidents.

Whether you are looking for a tough phone that offers basic functions. These simple functions can be such as sending messages and holding calls, or an advanced Smartphone with NFC and 4G, there is a tough phone for you. Additionally, common issue customers have when buying a rugged phone is understanding the terminology used to define its features.

Here at Onedirect we have compiled this rugged phones key features list to give you some light on what these terms mean.

Rugged phone jargon buster

1. IP Rating

IP Rating

The first number indicates the level of ingress protection against fine solids, such as dust or sand. Then, the second number indicates the degree of protection against liquids. Therefore, if you require a high level of dust and water resistance, then we advise an IP67 or IP68 rating.

2. Gorilla Glass

Some rugged smartphones with touchscreens have a Gorilla Glass screen. In fact, Gorilla Glass is a company that specializes in a tough glass designed to be thin, light and resistant to scratches and cracks. It is also glare-resistant which allows you to see your smartphone screen clearly in direct sunlight.

3. Military Standard 810G

Military Standard 810G is a standard that the US military uses to certify the robustness of the equipment. When the term MILSPEC-810G is used in conjunction with rugged mobile phones, it signifies that the manufacturer believes that the device would meet these standards. In most cases, the device won’t have undergone the test as it’s extremely expensive to do so.

Our rugged phones recommendations:

Hammer Blade 5G rugged phone

Hammer Blade 5G

The Hammer Blade 5G is the most rugged of all-terrain smartphones, as it does not require a physical SIM card to be operational. It has an IP69 IK07 certification rating which makes it resistant to water, dust and drops. With a very powerful 5000 mAh battery, it will accompany you anywhere and in any situation. In addition, the rugged phone has a 6.3” display with Gorilla Glass 5 protection and HD+ quality that will ensure you have everything under control at a glance.


Cat S62 PRO rugged phone

Cat S62 PRO

The smartphone CAT S62 Pro is built to withstand the most extreme working conditions. In fact, it withstands drops of up to 1.8 meters onto concrete (MIL-STD-810H) thanks to its rubber casing which is designed to absorb all types of impact. This rugged phone is also waterproof and IP68-certified. Moreover, the CAT S62 Pro can even withstand immersion in 2 meters of water for an hour! In addition, its Gorilla Glass 6 screen is scratch-resistant, so you can use your phone in any situation without fear of damage, even in the case of a fall.


Crosscall Core X5 rugged phone

Crosscall Core X5

The new Crosscall Core X5 is a rugged phone designed to communicate at any time and in any way. Moreover, in case of network saturation, you won’t have to worry about anything, as the new Crosscall Core X5 uses preemption mechanisms, optimising resources for optimal flow management. One of the highlights of this rugged phone is the 100 dB loudspeaker with noise-cancelling microphones, which enables crystal-clear, uninterrupted communication at all times.
