https://www.samsung.com/us/business/products/mobile/phones/galaxy-xcover-pro/
The Verge also initially claimed OLED, but then retracted this. Maybe someone misspoke.

This phone is almost perfect to replace my haggard OnePlus One... I hope there will be a 5G version though then it will be good for the long run.

If the headphone jack is decent for music then I'm in.
A removable battery and 4 years of security updates is ideal for me.
With so many phones thinking along the same lines, it is nice to see a separate approach targeted at its own market. This phone, while not ideal, fits better with my environmental thinking because it has a noticeably longer design life.

This phone looks awesome! Headphone jack, SD card slot, removable battery, programmable buttons, Dual LED flash, OLED display. Up-to-date OS and specs. Under $500. Nice! Now, was that really so hard, Samsung? ;-)
Also there is an error on the specs here on gsmarena, it falsely says it has an IPS LCD display but the phone actually has an OLED display. Here is the source where it says it has an OLED display:

the nice thing about the side finger scanner is that it can be a way to replace the volume buttons by sliding finger up or down it, amongst other things using it like a micro touch pad

only reason this phone is $500 bucks is the IP69 rating, otherwise it would be at most $300. You also don't really see mid-range phones with any water resistance at all.

Not bad, but too big, 6.3 inch tft screen is big for that 4050mha battery. Ill wait for the Xcover field pro, that one will be better.

And Galaxy Note 10 (the standard) has 6.3" too! For you a tablet is a phone?? Wow! You know, you need to use your brain!

The first famous phone with IP69, do not forget Drop-to-concrete resistance and MIL-STD-810G compliant, LG Flagships have some of it too, if i have enough money this phone was best for me, Water Res and Tough phone, unless it has only Ultra wide angle camera and not zoom, it's pricey to what offer but this type of phones are expensive always, higher storage than 64GB makes everything better. also lacks Gyro and don't info about OTG, btw if it comes with Dual Sim + SD Card make it a good phone to buy and have it for years but with OTG.

S8 9.0, 09 Jan 2020Fingerprint rar mounted where ?? Its more likely side fingerprintThe fingerprint is in the side button. GSMArena's spec list was originally copy&pasted from the XCover FieldPro (they even used the picture of that one until yesterday), and that one has a rear fingerprint reader. They have not fixed that line yet.
