But phones aren’t just about specs, that’s why the user Geek Love on Youtube has just released a video comparing the four devices in real life scenarios:

From the video we see the AGM A8 is a better all-arounder device, performing well in most important tasks and with a solid build quality. The phone is currently on sale over at AliExpress at $20 off retail price, that means it’ll cost you $129.99. A very interesting deal if you were looking for a good rugged phone. Beware price will rise up after April 19th, though.

    Coming back from Songkran in Bangkok I was wondering if there’s any cheap(er) water proof phone on the market….
    These somewhat fits the bill although I prefer a phone that has a nicer look.

    No no no, I think the best rugged smartphone is Blackview BV7000 Pro.
