Smartphones are generally fragile devices, gone are the days when there were durable Nokia symbian phones that could survive long drops and some other less than gentle treatment.
Smartphones nowadays are one drop away from a cracked screen and one fumble into water away from permanent destruction.
So most of us will give a lot to own a phone that not only has the ruggedness to handle most of our rough behaviors but is also relatively smart enough to be considered cool.
Enter Chinese Smartphone maker Blackview who claim to have the answer to your prayers.
The phone is called the BV6000 and it costs less than US$200. It comes with an octo-core Mediatek Helio P10 chipset and 3GB RAM, a 720p 4.7-inch display, and 32 GB of storage. Sure, it’s no iPhone 7, but that’s pretty solid performance for the price.
And the best part? It's basically like the Juggernaut--Indestructible.
The phone is rated IP68, meaning that it’s completely waterproof and dust-sealed which is amazing. It also has some pretty impressive shock absorption.
It's all well and good to write about this stuff, but maybe seeing it will make you see the light.
In a series of videos below, the BV6000 was subjected to all sorts of things with the aim to break...nothing doing.
First they dropped a bunch of BV6000s off a wall, threw them into the air, and ran them over with a car...and a bunch of other stuff...see below.
So what do you think of the Bv6000? Let's know. Cheers
