Think of tough, rugged and hard wearing and Land Rover isn’t far away. It’s now branching out into mobile phones, so if you’re constantly cursed with butterfingers it could be the ideal handset.
The handsets will actually be made by Sonim, which is no stranger itself to the sturdy phone market so you can be sure the S1 and S2 will be suitably hard wearing.
Exact specs are a little thin on the ground at the moment – although they will come packing Bluetooth.
In terms of durability, they’re fully submersible – so whether it ends up in your cuppa or at the bottom of a river, once you’ve fished it out and dried it off you’ll still be able to make and receive calls.
Dropwise, they’re good for a 1.6m tumble onto concrete and also certified to withstand salt, fog and humidity.
