You can do outdoor activities alone, but hardly without the company of a mobile phone. This small, unobtrusive device can help us in many ways: save training data, help with orientation, immortalise unique landscapes thanks to the camera, make emergency calls if necessary?<\/a><\/strong> A mobile phone can be used for all this and much more. However, mobile phones are often delicate. To put it bluntly: they are designed for use in the city. If you don't have a case or the screen protected, every knock you give it will affect both its aesthetics and its functioning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But technology is constantly evolving, and today many mobile phone manufacturers have taken notice of those who spend a lot of time outdoors, in the forest or in bad weather conditions. More and more mobile phones are becoming \"ruggedised\", popularly known as \"all-terrain\" phones. Ruggedised comes from the English verb ruggedize, <\/em>which translates as \"strengthen for better resistance to wear, stress and abuse\". These mobiles are aimed at a specific profile of people: those who do sport or work in the mountains, countryside or forests. Will you feel comfortable when mountain biking in the rain knowing that the Iphone X you have in your backpack might be getting wet? With the mobiles that we present below, all those doubts and worries will disappear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The best models.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

All the mobiles you will see below are different from conventional mobiles because of their robustness and resistance. However, they all have Internet connectivity and a powerful processor. The list of mobiles you see is ordered from the cheapest to the most expensive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blackview BV9000 Pro \"  <\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This device has been leading the sales ranking of ruggedised phones for most of the year, until it has arrived at the Dooge S60 (<\/strong>Click to view<\/a>)<\/strong>. The features of both smartphones are similar, but this model is slightly more expensive. Today it can be purchased for around 370 euros. It has a very durable 5.7-inch glass screen. This means that it is a very large screen. However, even though it is large, it is not very heavy; about 250 grams.

As a result, the battery life can last for two to three days under normal use. As with the previous model, this one also has a Mediatek Helio P5 processor, which is powerful enough to handle the most demanding applications smoothly. As a good mountaineer's phone, it has built-in GPS and a compass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Advantages and disadvantages<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The special preparation and design to make these phones more resistant and improve their durability makes them unique models, and consequently, they have their advantages and disadvantages. The following are some of the major advantages offered by these \"all-rounder\" mobiles:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • Heavy-duty housings<\/strong>With these phones there is no need for an additional protective casing. The materials that make up these mobiles are sufficiently prepared to withstand shocks. For example, if you go downhill mountain biking, it is possible that your mobile phone will suffer a few knocks and bumps. The \"rugged\" mobiles are prepared for this.\t<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
    • Extra-strong glass<\/strong>The screens of these smartphones are properly prepared for scratches and bumps. They are usually very resistant and will not break at the first blow.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
      • Affordable price<\/strong>Although the demand for such devices has led to more advanced models being produced, most of these phones can be bought for between 150 and 300 euros. A conventional lower-mid-range mobile phone is currently priced in this range, and its performance is likely to be weaker.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        However, as these phones are more about ruggedness than aesthetics or technical performance, they also have certain disadvantages:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        • Not very sophisticated aesthetics<\/strong>The ruggedness of these mobiles can make them look rather unattractive. However, that is not their primary manufacturing purpose. Moreover, although much progress is being made, they can be slightly heavy.\t<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
          • Technical specifications not very advanced<\/strong>Compared to conventional mobiles, they are not very advanced, and do not offer the most advanced services.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
