This Rugged Work Phone Is Perfect For Vacation Too

Posted by

It’s the Fourth of July weekend as this video hits the ‘tube, which means you should be thinking about hot dogs, fireworks and bathing suits – not worry about getting water on your smartphone (or answering the latest Slack message from your boss). So to commemorate this Independence Day, I took a page out of my college-era playbook … and stuck my SIM in a dumbphone. The Kyocera DuraXE is a mil-spec, water-resistant clamshell with some fancy frills like LTE and Mobile Hotspot – but its best attribute might just be its *lack* of features.

I wish OnePlus could have held on to the bold, rebellious industrial design that characterized its freshman effort, but my Android Central colleague Andrew Martonik is right to say in his own OnePlus 3 review that the phone is “all grown up.” This device is a combination of very compelling features and very few compromises, in a package that’s substantially more affordable than the flagships it tries to topple. Best of all, you don’t need to jump through a lot of hoops to buy one. Join me for the OnePlus 3 review by MrMobile!... Read More | Share it now!
