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

Covid Smartwatch Q-OPS21 – heart rate, body temp, blood oxygen, blood pressure, message alerts, IP68 water resistant
$149.00
The ideal smartwatch in a covid world – even the big brands have not introduced this level of health tech yet. We tested 12 Chinese smartwatch models – only two showed the level of accuracy on the biomed functions that we demanded. The Q-OPS21 is used by Outdoor Phone Store staff. It automatically tracks heartbeat and body temperature, detecting a 39.4 fever in one staffer which was then verified by a thermometer, and also recorded blood pressure figures similar to an Omron reading taken moments later. Wristwatch blood pressure tech is still in its infancy so it’s not medical grade, but it will show you trends up or down once the watch gets to understand your normal. Blood oxygen (SpO2) saturation – one of the key covid early warning tools – is also built in. All the collected data from the various medical functions is synced to an app on your phone and daily reports can even be emailed to your doctor. In addition to the cutting edge health tech, this smartwatch offers the usual functions of call and app alerts, but it doesn’t allow you to talk via the watch itself – our other model, the MX-OPS5, offers that function but doesn’t monitor body temperature. 12 month RTB warranty
