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

Americans love the Unihertz Tank! It’s not for everyone – weighing half a kilo because of its massive battery it qualifies as a defensive weapon if you are walking down a dark alley – but it’s built like the proverbial for a reason.
Unihertz says you might get up to a hundred days between battery charges, although officially it’s just “more than a week”. Some heavy users say they get 30 days. The point is, if you need a big battery phone for work or play outdoors (hikes, fishing, hunting etc) this phone has a lot more stamina than an EV…no ‘range anxiety’ here.
The Unihertz Tank also has the most powerful torch ever built in to a smartphone (watch the review video in specs below).
