The Samsung Galaxy XCover 6 Pro is a water- and dustproof smartphone that has been simply designed without annoying rubber flaps over the jacks. With modern ports and a replaceable battery, it should also be a decent smartphone for everyday use, right?https://www.notebookcheck.net/Samsung-Galaxy-XCover-6-Pro-revew-Lightweight-outdoor-smartphone-with-power.642009.0.html
The US Amazon listing claims to be the "2022 model", but it seems to be for the older Xcover Pro from 2020.
Good review, very comprehensive, thank you
since my parents are complaining about poor call audio quality on Moto x4 running LOS, and i was hoping to get this for maybe all of us...
what is the possibility the call issue was mobile network carrier issue (did you try multiple carriers?), correctable software issue, defective or damaged test unit?
(i really don't want to have to try to find something with similar long term support and repairability on short notice)
I have had this xcover6 pro since July, and its fast and no problem with call quality.
It is a fantastic mobile, a great improvement over the Xcover Pro I had for the last 30 month.
By the way front protection is Gorilla Glass Victus Plus.
Which is a stronger glass than Victus.
Heads up as I believe you linked the old Amazon US model in the "Price and Availability" section.
I'm a little confused by the sentence on Bluetooth codecs:
QuoteHowever, only aptX is available for wireless connection, not the more modern variants. In return, you get Samsung's own Scalable Codec, AAC, SBC and LDAC.
Is only aptX available? Or is there also e.g. LDAC and its supported bitrates? Thanks!
reminder the USA version is only single sim plus esim.
who is placing your shopping links? they are still wrong, and now looking at first one, it is pointing to entirely different device, not even the old series versions, why?
for those in USA looking for unlocked direct versions from Samsung or in their cramazon page, they are listed at full $600 price.
The link is 80% if the time wrong on review sites. It's nothing new. A lot of reviewed models are not officially sold in the US/ whichever country you're in, so a lot of listings are made by third party sellers, and they can change anything at any time. They can change it to a completely different product tomorrow. It's to be blamed on Amazon having a bad marketplace.
This phone itself is great. Samsung has a sale last year at $509 during the holiday season. As always NotebookCheck reviews are usually a few months after the initial introduction. (In this case 7 months late)
Samsung doesn't want you to learn this phone exists. It wants you to buy S models and A5x models that has no jack or replaceable batteries. 90% of Samsung users never heard of this phone.
I'm sorry actually NotebookCheck was quick to review this phone. I read the dates wrong.
