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.

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.
