You hang out by the lake or river every free hour and enjoy the company of your friends or simply the sun on your belly. I've put together the setup for adventure, fun and the sea for you. A summer pimp-my-phone set.

If you are planning a digital detox during your holiday, then I recommend you read no further. For all those who can't do without a robust mobile or the right photo equipment for their smartphone when travelling or on their outdoor adventures: Here are your guarantors and much more.

The hulks among smartphones

Have you ever been out and about in the great outdoors and then this happens to your mobile; display smashed, water damage or battery flat? If you're looking for a robust partner for rain, snow and, of course, sunshine - you can count on these three smartphones

The Land Rover Explore rugged phone developed by the Bullit Group is causing a stir. According to the manufacturer, it can withstand extreme temperatures between -25 and 55 degrees Celsius, thermal shocks and salt water in its case. But the inside is also bursting with adventure: powered by 10 processor cores with 4GB RAM, the Land Rover Explore offers 4GB RAM and 4000mAh battery capacity. Even more exciting: ViewRanger provides its owner with topographical maps including an augmented reality skyline function as well as access to a dashboard that provides weather information, sensor data and an SOS light switch at all times.

Included free of charge: the versatile Adventure Pack

Don't need a "Landi" but prefer a mid-range outdoor phone? I offer you the new Cyrus CS 28 and the proven 5-star dual SIM device Cyrus CS 40 Freestyle for an attractive price-performance ratio. Both are certified to IP68 and MIL-STD-810G standard.

Photo Foto Foto: Accessories for the smartphone

Most smartphones replace a camera. All-in-one is the new smart device in your trouser pocket. Accessories are becoming increasingly creative and fit in every pocket. 360° degrees on Eyjafjallajökull or super macro shots of some poisonous frog in the Costa Rican jungle - it's now possible. And if you still like analogue photography, we recommend this interesting text.

Cheese: Selfies always work

Have you finally got over yourself and gone on holiday alone for the first time? Are you standing in the desert in Oman and want to take a photo? Voilà, the classic Chinese bestseller can help you. But we have a few alternatives so that it doesn't look like a tourist group.

More sea: extra storage for your world

"I always thought 16GB of memory was enough for my iPhone.". How often have we heard this sentence? Then we panic and decide which pictures can be deleted in order to get some memory back. Well, deleting is only one alternative.

I need power for my battery - I have no power in my battery

"Baby, lend me your charger. I need more power." groans the frontman of the band Bilderbuch into the microphone in the song Bungalow. He mumbles the whole thing in such a way that at first you might think it's singing about a small bar in Monaco that he wants to drive to in the borrowed Lada. But all he needs is electricity. We have enough of that. You won't run out of juice so quickly with this.

My head is crammed with ideas. And I add a new one every minute. I enjoy discussions and forming my own opinions. I love gadgets and anything that has a motor. I’m definitely in the right place.
