According to Roland Quandt on X, Samsung’s upcoming rugged phone, the Galaxy Xcover 7, is coming to Europe for under €400.
That’s not a bad deal considering the overall state of poor phones, which are often underpowered or run on a proprietary Android OS-based software with minimal support.
Choosing Samsung for your next rugged phone might not be such a bad idea. It has a 6.6-inch FHD+ display, 6/128GB of memory and depending on past leaks, a Dimensity 6100+ SoC. It looks good and boasts MIL-STD-810H military-grade standard and IP68 ingress protection.
If indeed the price is under €400, the Xcover 7 will certainly be a competitive solution in this rather niche segment. Not to mention the software support will probably be longer and more reliable than other lesser known brands.
