Ulefone made a bold move a year and a half ago when it introduced
RugOne, a new brand fully focused on rugged and sustainable tech. Its first lineup, the
RugOne Xever 7 Series, already stands out in a crowded market. These phones are the world’s first rugged outdoor smartphones with a swappable battery, a clear nod to eco-friendly design and easier repairs. It offers a fresh take on durability that also prioritizes long-term use.
To mark the launch and the holiday season, RugOne is rolling out a
Year-End Christmas Deal along with a global Lucky Draw. The campaign runs from December 17, 2025, to January 6, 2026. During this period, the Xever 7 Series starts at $529.99, making it one of the most interesting rugged phone deals right now.
RugOne Xever 7 Pro brings real power to the outdoors
The
RugOne Xever 7 Pro is built for people who work and play in harsh environments. One of the biggest highlights is the
swappable 5500mAh battery. Each phone ships with a spare battery and a free 4-in-1 charging station. You can charge fast, store batteries neatly, and power up more than one battery at the same time. There is also 33W fast-charging to replenish this battery quickly. The whole system meets the EU energy label Class A standard.
Durability is ensured in this smartphone, with all the strong specifications and ratings you expect. The phone comes with IP68, IP69K, and MIL-STD-810H certifications, allowing it to withstand water, dust, drops, and rough use without stress.
Camera hardware is another strong point. You get a 50MP main camera with both OIS and EIS, as well as a 64MP infrared night vision camera. Additionally, the phone features a FLIR Lepton 3.5 sensor for true thermal imaging, making it particularly useful for professionals. The front camera is a solid 32MP.
Strong 5G Performance
Inside, the MediaTek Dimensity 7200 5G chip powers everything, paired with 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage. The display is a 6.67-inch AMOLED panel with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. You also get eSIM support for travel and a very bright TorchX light on the top edge for emergencies.
The Xever 7 Pro ships with Android 15 and is promised three major updates, taking it all the way to Android 18. A one-key device clone feature makes moving data from your old Android phone quick and painless.
RugOne Xever 7 Keep Things Simple But Tough
The RugOne Xever 7 shares almost everything with the Pro model. It has the same rugged build, the same swappable battery system, and the same core performance. The main difference is the lack of a thermal camera. If you do not need thermal imaging, this model still delivers excellent durability and power at a lower price.
