Some Samsung sites have launched support pages for the XCover6 Pro:
Australia: https://www.samsung.com/au/support/model/SM-G736BZKAXSA/
Germany: https://www.samsung.com/de/support/model/SM-G736BZKDEEB/
Nothing interesting there yet, basically just a placeholder, but I think the announcement might be imminent.(?)

One of the very important features of this phone and XCover series that is very useful to me and other professionals who use gloves (in work environment) and would like to take a photo, this phone is a must. My colleagues were wondering what smartphone I used and when I said Samsung they tried to look for the touch sensitivity settings on their Samsung smartphone as well :D

Why is Samsung sticking to this 4050mAh battery? My Xcover Pro could hardly last a day. People keep saying that you can just remove and replace the battery with the another fully charged one. I fully understand that but having a smartphone that can't last a day with single battery is unacceptable at this age. Come on Samsung, put something decent like 7000mAh that you are using in some of your smartphone. Removing the back cover and battery often is not good specially if this phone is designed for waterproof body. The new Xcover 4s I bought last week had to be returned because the back cover was already creaking (nothing has snapped off) and loose after only a couple of opening and closing it. Luckily, it has not happen yet to my son's Xcover 4 (3 years in use) and his new Xcover 4s (3 weeks in use) and my Xcover Pro (1 year in use).

The phone has appeared on the FCC report pages:
SM-G736B (European version?): https://fccid.io/A3LSMG736B
SM-G736U (US version?): https://fccid.io/A3LSMG736U
FCC reports focus on frequencies, emissions and the like, and they go little into the specs users care about. But they do confirm 128GB storage, the presence of a microSD slot, and that the battery is removable. Moreover, the test reports are from mid-May, and them being released now might indicate that the release of the phone is very close.

Zakalwe, 09 Jun 2022$150-phones don't come with properly tested IP-ratings... moreI didn't mean literal 150$ junk, but you still get the point.
A Redmi Note 11 (amazing deal by the way!)with a hard case that doesn't let too much water in will be good enough for most people looking for a rugged experience, most people don't work in places with steaming hot high pressure water where they need an exposed phone on them at all times.

VNuff, 09 Jun 2022then they wouldn't care to get a 150$ phone and cover ... more$150-phones don't come with properly tested IP-ratings, removable batteries, pogo pins for charging cradles and vehicle docks, and comprehensive warranties by reputable manufacturers with local offices around the globe. "MrWhoseTheBoss" tested pseudorugged no-name consumer junk, not the rugged devices that industries and first responders use.
That being said, I do think one should not be too generous with the "that's-not-important-in-serious-business"-excuse for low specs in rugged phones. Yes, these devices do not have to play games or 4k videos or take pretty pictures, but they should be able to function reliably and securely for years, which means they need the specs to handle future Android upgrades. A rugged phone that is just adequate today may not be so useful anymore in one, two versions. And clinging to Android 9 forever is not a solution (I'm looking at you, Panasonic and Motorola Solutions).

on a case? ur 2 bucks away from it looking brand new.
most rugged phones are nowhere near as durable as advertised btw, MrWhoseTheBoss tested them, and you're better off with a 150$ phone with a cheap case and screen protector.
a 778G won't show its smoothness as well with a 1080p LCD @60Hz anyway.

I'm using Note with S-Pen easy to sign, image editing, etc. and Pixel for the camera, but i always in hurry (cuz of my job) and already drop them many times and crack even they already using rugged case. Consider to buy rugged phone, but still no clear information from any rugged phone i watch on Youtube for what i need like Samsung and Pixel, but my eyes on NXR20 now.
Just need 1 phone with :
1. S Pen & 512GB, very good display like S21/2U
2. Easy fast point and shot, brilliant camera & clean Android like Google Pixel
3. Rugged, tough, good battery life like Nokia XR20 (i do like the design)
Hope GSMArena (or anyone read this) forward this to any brand
Thanks a lot & regards,
Fid

VNuff, 04 Jun 2022This is the weirdest phone I saw Samsung release, I'd ... moreDisdain for midrange SoCs (a72 and a52s not brought to the USA), removable batteries(no trading in or buying new phone quickly), headphone jacks (intrudes on buds sales), and rugged phones (no new sales or screen repair sales) is pretty fitting for Samsung. The fact that Wal-Mart bought hundreds of thousands of the XCover Pro is pretty telling: They only want the aforementioned features in a gimped "boring" corporate phone for big box store or worksite employees that isn't exceptionally good for entertainment or media purposes.
