In a very discreet movement, and out of its presentation at CES 2020, Samsung presented its Galaxy XCover Pro In finland. Like all its predecessors, this renovation is aimed at being a rugged mobile, capable of withstanding the most extreme conditions of use.
This is achieved thanks to a very solid construction that makes it worthy of the MIL-ST-810G certification, one of the most difficult to obtain. Thanks to it, it is able to withstand adverse weather conditions, high and low temperatures, falls, bumps in general and be especially good for fighting both water and dust.
Unlike older models that come with thicker bezels, the XCover Pro comes with a perforated screen, surrounded by thinner bezels. The launch was made through a press release.
