To be fair, Anonymous was talking of using DeX on the XCover6 Pro, i.e. its desktop mode, with an external monitor. This is a lot more like using an actual desktop computer, where you have multiple apps running in parallel, maybe a desktop level office suite, a VNC client to run remote sessions on other computers and so on. Some even install a full Linux distribution for use under DeX. 6GB is rather cramped if you want to utilize the full potential of DeX (not sure if 8GB would improve much, though).

Anonymous, 11 Oct 2023As much as I love this phone, especially its removable batt... moreDude!?!? For what "multitasking" exactly you speak about? Watching 5 different videos and starting rockets size as Atlas 4?
I use my Xcover 4s since come on the market ages ago, and the multitasking work quite well over 3Gb of ram! If you load facebook, instagram, Viber and Whats up and similar application to work as background processes, and they use ram without any reason, sure will be f*ucking slow.. Not because the phone itself is bad but because the shit they are!
I`ve been using multitasking on motorola in the era of Windows Ce, and later on Symbian. And as you guess the CPU and ram where way low than now and worked perfectly.
Even you make it with 12 or 24Gb ram, shit application that eat resources for breakfast will work badly anyway..
Is other thing, that the phone itself should not be more than 320-350$/€ as price

DarlingYext, 17 Nov 2023That battery is very small for a rugged phone.It's user replaceable, though. Should make up for the smolness.

Would not be a surprise - the companies are evil to the core. Even a surprise that they would even release one like this with all the evil corruption in the world.

Anonymous, 25 Oct 2023Totally doubt it'll be non-removable since you can use... moreYeah, I doubt it. As far as I can tell, any specs posted so far (including the name "Xcover 7") are pure speculation. And the model number (SM-G556) starting with SM-G5 indicates it will be a successor to the Xcover 5 (SM-G525) rather than the previous Pro models that started with SM-G7.

I see that this model is going to be replaced by the XCover 7 Pro in 2024, but when I look up the specs of the XCover 7 Pro, it lists a *non-removable* battery. Please tell me this is a mistake. The XCover Pro line of rugged phones should be expected to have removable batteries, right? Anyone know what's going on with that?

For anyone wondering, the Xcover6 Pro is available for OneUI 5.1. I wasn't able to find this information anywhere on the internet, particularly for Bixby's Text Call (similar to Google Assistant's Call Screening), which is now supported on this phone. I'd edit this page if I knew how.

Please tell me which craftsmen or hikers who asked for a phaplet?
These phones are comically big, impossible to operate with one hand (even for the coarsest of craftsmen), and hence lacks any sort of sense, UX, or otherwise thought gone into the design except from 'just follow the general design trajectory, never look at how things are going to be used'.

As much as I love this phone, especially its removable battery, 6GB RAM is just not enough. You can feel it when multitasking a lot of apps, especially when using DeX. Samsung should made an 8GB RAM version of this phone. 128GB storage is more than enough since this phone has microSD card slot.

Zakalwe, 23 Sep 2023Samsung has priced the Xcover6 Pro 50% higher than the A54,... moreI don't want OLED. I prefer an IPS LCD since it's cheaper to repair and never suffers much from screen burn-in issues. Also, the A54's Exynos 1380 SoC is not on par with the Snapdragon 778G SoC on this phone alongside the A52s 5G.

Samsung has priced the Xcover6 Pro 50% higher than the A54, and the A54 has the OLED-screen consumers want. Hence the A54 needs to save elsewhere to stay this cheap.

So, they tell us that this phone is given a Snapdragon and not their mid-range Galaxy A54 5G although it could at least be given a SND 782G? Wow. Amazing.
