Why do you need a rugged phone? Rugged devices are purpose built for reliability and effectiveness in especially tough conditions and environments. All devices are tested to IP68 and MIL-STD-810G standards and survive extremes in weather, temperatures, dust, water and impact, with features to suit, such as high lumen torches, multifunctional alarms, industrial scanners, GPS tracking, proprietary apps and push-to-talk capabilities.
