Are there rugged smartphones sold locally in PH? – AskYuga #31

One of our readers asked…

Hi there! Are there rugged smartphones sold locally and if there aren’t, what are your foreign smartphone recommendations that will still work in PH? Thanks! –Mikel Gerard Lalu

There are quite a few brands that officially sell rugged smartphones in the country.

There’s DOOGEE that made its return to the Philippine market just this year. While others are… perhaps, existing quietly through online shopping platforms.

Fun fact: Samsung previously tried to offer rugged phones and tablets with its Galaxy XCover line. But apparently, they discontinued it since there’s no new iteration this year.
