All smartphones, which are positioned as protected, have different degrees of protection - the ability to withstand certain impact factors. This characteristic is measured by a numerical indicator that comes after the letters IP. For example, the most popular formats are 67 and 68.
According to the data sheet, the IP68-rated phone is able to resist dust ingress into the case (this is considered the highest degree of protection). By the second digit, you can tell how much the device is “afraid” of contact with water. Speaking of IP68, it should be noted: such gadgets can dive to great depths (over 10 meters) without harm to the device's stuffing.
In this article we will review phones that have just such a degree of protection. Those gadgets that are equipped with a more capacious battery than others will also be selected. This determines the duration of the smartphone, its endurance.
Therefore, in the review we will consider some of the most interesting models, after which we will draw the appropriate conclusions about them.
Snopow M8
The phone that we present to you first of all cannot be called a technological novelty or some stylish multifunctional smartphone. The device hasquite common for its class of devices performance, expressed in the display resolution of 960 x 540 pixels and a clock frequency of four processor cores of 1.2 GHz. At the same time, we have IP68: a phone with a 3000 mAh battery, the capacity of which is enough for a decent operating time.
With such a device, it is not scary to go hiking, travel through the forest, mountains or go down in a kayak - nothing threatens him, since the body is securely soldered and "clothed" in thick plastic.
Hummer H6
Another interesting gadget that represents the “IP68 rugged phones” category is a rectangular-shaped smartphone named after the legendary SUV.
It also has a powerful battery (3500 mAh) but a weaker processor. On the one hand, as a result of this, performance is seriously affected (according to reviews, the Hummer H6 does not have the ability to smoothly run applications and games “piled up” with graphics). On the other hand, the physical performance of this IP68-rated phone is excellent.
Lamborghini V12
Another phone named after a famous car that meets high safety requirements, has a very thin body, sheathed in metal. Because of this, the developers were unable to install a more capacious battery here than 2500 mAh.
Nevertheless, even with it, the phone can last long enough due to a specially designed charge consumption system that allows it tosave.
Otherwise, we have before us an ordinary smartphone from China, which has 4 cores with a frequency of 1.5 GHz, equipped with a display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, as well as an 8 megapixel camera. We could not find any feedback on the stability of its work.
Mann Zug3
This gadget has slightly simpler characteristics. It is made in the usual design for this class of devices, combining 3 color combinations: gray, black and yellow. The protection class here, of course, is IP68. The phone has a 2950 mAh battery, which will last for several days on a single charge, especially considering the not so powerful processor (Adeno 302 with 4 cores at 1.2 GHz).
The phone also has a body made of plastic and rubber, but it has a high degree of impact resistance. We can say that this is a worthy alternative to the Nokia 1100 from the world of smartphones.
Land Rover XS
In this section we are talking about one of the flagship vehicles of the XS modification, released under the name Land Rover. The model has a processor for 8 cores with a frequency of 1.7 GHz each. This means that in terms of performance, the device can compete with even unprotected “civilian” phones.
In addition to complete isolation from moisture and dust, the smartphone can also show a high-quality assembly. According to reviews dedicated to the gadget, the quality of fitting parts to one another is quite high here, given the far from low cost of the smartphone.
BlackView BV5000
This one in generalan unknown but rather interesting manufacturer from China may be of interest to the domestic public. The phone has nothing original in its appearance: it is “wrapped” in the same black and orange colors.
Its peculiarity is not that it belongs to the group of “indestructible IP68 flagship phones with a powerful battery”. Of course, it was not Samsung's flagship, but an unknown manufacturer BV. Therefore, you should not count on any superpowers either.
The gadget has a very powerful 4780 mAh battery. With them, the device is able to last longer than others.
No.1 M2
You may not have heard of the No.1 brand. This is a Chinese manufacturer of some copies that successfully disperse on the territory of the CIS countries like hot cakes.
The company has released its IP68-compliant phone. It looks unoriginal, but it is perfectly and reliably protected from any third-party influence.
The smartphone has a lot of technical “gadgets” in the form of a powerful 13-megapixel camera, 1 GB RAM, various sensors and sensors.
Jeep Z6
This smartphone should be remembered if you want to continue the “automotive” theme. Of course, the name of the device does not mean that it has something to do with car manufacturers. It's just a marketing ploy that still works.
It is equipped with a set of functions that greatly simplifyinteraction with the device, but it is clearly deprived of battery capacity (2500 mAh).
You can't call it big, but taking into account the charge consumption, it will be just right. And, of course, we have something that belongs to the group of “indestructible IP68 flagship phones” due to the ability to withstand various influences.
Conclusions
What can be said about the so-called secure gadgets that have become fashionable lately? With such phones, you can really experience some extreme feelings without fear that some internal part of the device will be damaged, that you will get lost in the forest and will not be able to find your way back.
It is to warn this that there are indestructible IP68 flagship phones with a powerful battery. They are not only protected from impacts, but also hold a charge for a long time. And this in the conditions of the campaign means a lot.
Yes, and it is not necessary to work with such a smartphone in the forest. If you like it, you can wear it in everyday life, just without fear for the technical condition of the device.
