      I love to go pixel peeing

        SizN80, 28 May 2022Every single Snapdragon 8 Gen1 phone needs a 8000mah batter... morerugged phones always use potato chipset... only that fragile device are a flagship, i hope blackview will use dimensity 8100 or 870 for their future rugged device

          Surprise: you can use night vision in daylight, since its just IR camera.

            If u add a Periscope camera , the previous year sony Lense and atleat s.d 778 or Mdtk 1200, i wont mind paying double the amount of the phone without a cuss word .
            Phone body- checked
            Battery-chexked
            Screen-checked.

            Only of phones like these have reach and manufactured out of china it will certainly eat a huge market share of some Phone Giants

              It would be good if GSMArena also reviewed the Nokia XR20 for comparison. The Blackview has a huge battery but the design makes it specialist only whereas the XR20 can easily be used as a daily-driver outside of 'rugged' use cases.

                        Doesn't that go against its own logic of design?

                              The only time you can overgeneralize something and not be wrong is calling these "rugged" phones as all bad and not worth it, because non is so far.

                                        Why do they need a quad Beyer filter for the IR camera? Avoiding the filter will allow more light to pass through
