WARNING: Beware of Cowboys selling “cheap” rugged phones
Some big rugged phones sites and TradeMe sellers are trying to flog-off phones that don’t work in rural areas, and which may not work anywhere once Vodafone and Spark switch off the 3G cellsites next year – and they’re lying to their customers about it, still promising “compatible with all NZ 3G/4G networks”.
To help you avoid being stung, we’ve compiled a database of all rugged phones and whether they are really compatible. Read more at the links

If you’re in professional trades and need the most powerful and rugged outdoor phone, the AGM G1S is the communication device that will set you ahead of the pack.
AGM doesn’t have a big range of phones – they prefer to devote their energies to producing high-end reliable devices once every three years rather than a dozen mass produced new models every six months. The Glory G1S is the pinnacle of rugged phone engineering, offering thermal imaging that’s higher resolution than many dedicated thermal imaging devices. In fact, the G1S is currently the best thermal phone in the world. It also has a powerful night vision camera, dock charging and 5G.
It leaves Spark’s CAT S62 behind, with 35% more battery power, 8GB of RAM and 128GB onboard storage, and a 6.53 inch screen. The AGM G1S is an exceptional smartphone, and only the Outdoor Phone Store can service this model.

A smartphone app also allows you to remotely monitor health vitals like heart rate and body temperature. The VNZ48 works in NZ cities with cellphone coverage. No need to pay monthly monitoring fees!
