- Large battery: The 9600 mAh cell is far bigger than the cells in most phones at this price, so it can go a long day or more between charges.
- Charging support: 18W wired charging keeps the wait short for a battery this size.
- Rugged build: IP68 and IP69K ratings, MIL-STD-810H compliance and drop resistance up to 1.5 m make it a fit for site work and rain.
- Memory: 8GB RAM and 128GB storage, with a separate microSD slot for more space.
- Loud speaker and headphone jack: The 122 dB speaker helps on noisy sites, and the 3.5 mm jack suits wired earphones.
