I mean, first responders have to buy cell phones just like anybody else. If our dept provides anything that needs ruggedness, it’s gonna be a normal 2 way hand carry radio.

Anonymous, 29 Jan 2020Looks cheaper than Xcover Pro. But is it a first-responders only product?Xcover 4s was also marketed as first responders phone, an yet you can buy it at your local tech store.

I wouldn't trust a phone manufactured in China for the same reason the USA is blocking Huawei's 5G rollout. They all have backdoors installed for the Communist party. The Chinese government gets to watch everything you do.
I want a small phone with a big battery. I'm disappointed that this has a small 5 inch screen but a massive bezel. I won't fit in my shirt pocket, which is a requirement for me. I don't like that most new phones these days are 6 inch+.

There are better rugged phones available than just Samsung, CAT, and Kyocera, gsmarena doesn't cover them for some reason. Namely, Ulefone, Blackview, and Doogee. Much better, plus, fair pricing. Only downside seems to be that they're mainly available on AliExpress.

Tim, 10 Jan 2020It's got too big. This is 50% heavier than the Xcover 4, and longer , wider and more than 50% ... moreYeah, I dont know what were they thinking. this is similar to the 18Kmah monstrosity phone. why make a 8" phone with a 5" screen? few want that ugly beast.
instead make an updated S6 active...

It's got too big. This is 50% heavier than the Xcover 4, and longer , wider and more than 50% thicker. The Xcover 4 is already too big, the Xcover 3 was a much more pocketable size. They need to remake the Xcover 3 with more memory instead. Also, this says the battery is not removeable, surely that is a mistake? The previous models have always enabled carrying a spare battery and also replacing the battery easily when it deteriorates after a year or 2.
As this is not a suitable replacement for my Xcover 4 due to the above, can anyone recommend some alternatives I can check out? Thank you.

And people wanting a rugged phone usually dont spend more than 400euros at best.
