Rugged

The 8849 Tank Pad Ultra combines a built-in 1080p projector that puts out 260 lumens for on-the-spot visuals, as well as night vision cameras, and a laser rangefinder in a rugged tablet designed for fieldwork and outdoor use.

Durabook's Z14I-HG rugged mobile workstation brings desktop-class AI into sandstorms, frozen tundra, and battlefield conditions. It runs fully self-contained, with no cloud or mobile network signal needed.

Big screen, big battery and useful tools for outdoor enthusiasts – that's what we expect from rugged phones. But hefting one around can be like putting a brick in your pocket. Fossibot's latest effort shrinks the formula down a bit.

To get straight to the point: This rugged smartphone packs a 20,000-mAh battery, doubles as a walkie-talkie, and includes a 1,200-lumen camp light ... but it's nearly the same size and weight as an actual brick.

Ulefone subsidiary RugOne has revealed a rugged smartphone called the Xsnap 7 Pro that lets you detach an actioncam from within the body and wear it on your bike helmet, while the handset acts as a footage processing mothership.

HMD's new phone is purpose-built for military personnel, law enforcement agents, first responders, and infrastructure operators who find themselves in super hot or cold environments on the job. It's all about essential features for tough conditions.

Ulefone's Armor 27T Pro+ combines thermal imaging and infrared night vision in a rugged Android phone built for rescue teams and field professionals. Its 10,600-mAh solid-state battery works at -22 °F, and promises week-long runtime.

Is this the Bentley off-roader we’ve all been waiting for? The wider, taller and, to our eyes, sexier Bentayga X Concept is luxurious AND tough enough to tackle an ice-race debut in the Austrian Alps.

The Tank X replaces several gadgets in your outdoor loadout, and has a couple of tricks up its sleeve. This upcoming model from 8849 packs an enormous battery that should last you several days, as well as a powerful flashlight and a 1080p projector.

There are a bunch of dedicated devices that literally lift the veil of darkness to reveal a secret nocturnal world. Some rugged phones can do this too, but Fossibot reckons that none have the reach and clarity of its recently launched F113.

Ulefone has already made a name for itself in the rugged smartphone business. Now, it's got a sub-brand that's focused on more niche innovations for people who want more differentiated devices – and its first flagship product is quite something.

When a tough case just won't cut the mustard, rugged phones step up as the everyday companion for rough-and ready adventurers. Unihertz sub-brand 8849 has just unveiled what it's calling the "world's first rugged phone with 200-m dual flashlights."
