Here’s something interesting from the folks over at Ulefone. The company’s upcoming Armor smartphone features a rugged chassis with IP68 water and dust proofing, as well as shockproof capabilities.
The Armor comes with waterproof components such as the earpiece, microphone, speaker, camera and button tray. Ulefone has added a special control chip for the Armor that allows its user to easily operate the phone’s display even with wet hands. Ulefone has also added a special “SOS” button allowing the user one-push access to emergency services in countries like India.
