Time to hit the mud, grit and undergrowth – with your smartphone!

created on 29.6.2016

On some days, “regular” smartphones just don’t cut it. You know, those kind of days when you feel like wrestling a bear, exploring and conquering the world, taking a boat for a spin on the lake or building a log cabin with your bare hands.

Those days call for an outdoor mobile. The appeal lies in their features that smartphones designed for everyday use simply don’t offer – a scratch-proof display, sturdier, 1.2 metre drop-tested and waterproof (IP67 certification) design. So go out and have fun mountain biking, hiking, rafting, climbing or walking your four-legged friend in the forest.
