But because it's not a hipster model with a shiny glass back (which ends up getting covered by a thick and ugly case), it was not given much airtime by the mainstream media.

    Also because it has a removable battery, the very feature they repeatedly said won't be coming back. lol

        Its available in Europe, for example, notebookcheck even made review on it.
        Long story Short, good phone with few small drawbacks.
        My opinion after playing with its camera in the store and comparing it with my Galaxy S8 - not worth the money if youre looking for good, durable Android with decent cameras. Yes, its meant for outdoor workers and mobile sales Personnel etc, but come on, adding cameras that are as good as they were 3 years ago was off the cards for Samsung and thats a shame, they missed great opportunity with Xcover pro.

            European reviews have been popping up on youtube and some say the camera is bad. But then again, I'll just have to put up with it since Samsung is busy recycling 9611 cpus and put the nice cameras/parts on fragile/pretty looking consumer grade devices.

              I'd love to see a full review and a drop test with at least 10 drops from good height. I'm hoping to see whether this phone:
              a) can survive more than a few drops from 1.5-2m (over a couple of years it's bound to fall more than once)
              b) can work as a decent mid-range device, replacing my aging S7 in a rugged case.

              A good phone in a rugged case is both bigger and heavier than Galaxy Xcover Pro. And a thin case doesn't provide much in terms of protection. So I wonder if Samsung Galaxy Xcover Pro can be a decent replacement to an old Samsung Galaxy S7.

                    Got the dual-SIM EU XCover Pro model.

                    Work fabulously. GPS etc. is particularly fast and accurate (inc. Galileo, GLONASS and Beidou so not surprising). Very solid. Very customisable. Nice camera. Dual-SIM works nicely. Latest Android. Can't fault it.

                      Or could it be that you got a lemon V20? And you never mentioned why the xcover pro was bad as your post was all about the V20.

                        To those of you who compared the Samsung XCover Pro to the LG V20 -- i tested both, and i would have loved them as a successor to my LG G4.
                        The LG V20 also had MANY disapointmentt, at least the version i tested in the middle of EU (Austira).
                        The V20's camera is WORSE than that of the elderly G4, in fact, images appear like WATERCOLOUR!
                        What was a no-go criteria: The v20 HAD VERY BAD OVERALL RADIO SIGNAL QUALITY.
                        In my home region with LTE coverage, i never had interrupted calls for many years. The V20 did not manage well in my region - calls were dropped, signal was frequently lost, many changes from 3G/4G back and forth. Practically unusable in everyday life. Probably because the battery back is metal and the positioning of antennas was more difficult.
                        In my opinion, neither the LG v20 nor the Samsung Xcover pro are of good quality. really ashame!

                            It's nowhere as good as the V20 but I was still pleasantly surprised to see something of an ok quality with a removable battery. If it's rootable, it will be more attractive than the V20 which is now unrootable. I mean, the V20 has so many features and aftermarket removable, externally chargeable 10-12k mah batteries. Sadly, you cannot flash custom ROM on it and every time you look at your phone, you see google staring back at you, collecting your data and making you a part of the digital henhouse it's masters are runnning from the shadows...

But we might see a v20 successor if the EU stops grandstanding and just walk the talk when it comes to imposing repairability on smartphones.

                                So in other words, it will be the successor to LG V20? The missing features are the FM Radio, IR blaster remote, and the lack of call recording feature (it's an Android 9+ limitation).

                                It has two programmable buttons, which will be good to map them for emulator games (Epsxe, PPSSPP).

                                        Zakalwe, 22 Feb 2020Thank you, I'll see how I can adapt this!save it in a file called "backup.xml".
                                        put it on your phone.

                                        in tasker, 3 dot menu, import data, from local drive, select the file backup.xml

                                        from now, you have my tasker setting on your own app. modify stuff to see what happens, and from that it's very easy.

                                        tasker might ask for new permission, use adb to grant them.
