Galaxy XCover FieldPro is made with durability and reliability in mind

Samsung's latest rugged smartphone features a 5.1-inch screen with QHD resolution. It runs a two-year-old version of Android (v8.0), but the company plans to upgrade it to Android 10. The smartphone is equipped with the Exynos 9810 processor, 4GB RAM, 64GB UFS storage, and a microSD card slot.

The Galaxy XCover FieldPro features an 8MP selfie camera (F.17) at the front and a 12MP rear-facing camera with dual-aperture (F1.5-F2.4), 4K video recording, and triple-LED flash. The phone has GPS, LTE, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.0, NFC, a USB 2.0 Type-C port, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. The phone comes powered by a removable, 4500mAh battery, and there's an additional 4500mAh battery in the box.

As the phone was made with durability and reliability in mind, it passes MIL-STD-810G and IP68 tests for resistance against dust, shock, extreme temperatures, and water. There's a dedicated Push-to-Talk button, which is pretty useful for first responders and law enforcement officials.

There's a capacitive fingerprint reader on the rear for user authentication. Thanks to Samsung's Knox security suite, the phone is compliant with CJIS, HIPAA, and FIPS, and can safely be used by the federal government in the US. Security features such as Samsung Pass and Secure Folder also come pre-installed on the phone.
