A large one on the left side is designed to be used for push-to-talk applications – essentially setting it up as a walkie-talkie.

In a field-use situation, you might need more, so the removable battery and support for both fast charging through the USB-C port (with a 15-watt charger included) or via Pogo charging makes sense. Generally, I found the battery life to be quite good – more than good enough to get through a normal day. It has a removable back so you can get to the replaceable 4050 mAh battery, dual SIM card slots and microSD card.

The XCover Pro has a couple of features you don't see much in phones these days that I really like.

It runs Android 10 with the Samsung One UI 2, a fairly unobtrusive skin. In use, it will feel very familiar to anyone who has used a Samsung (or indeed, any Android) phone in the past few years. You can add a microSD card up to expand storage to 512 GB. The unit I used had 4GB of RAM and 64 GB. The phone is powered by a Samsung Exynos 9611 processor with four 2.3GHz ARM Cortex-A-73 cores and four 1.7GHz ARM Cortex-A53 cores and Mali-G72 graphics. I wasn't able to test it in any of these environments other than rain, but it worked just fine. The phone is also equipped with a 'glove mode' so you can use it in rain or snow while wearing gloves. Samsung says it is designed for extreme weather conditions including high altitude or humidity. It is meant to withstand drops from 1.5 meters, though of course none of this is covered by the warranty. (Note though, that the main Galaxy S and Note line is also rated IP-68). It is certified to military spec MIL-STD-810G1 and rated IP-68, meaning it should be sand, dust, and dirt resistant, and theoretically capable of surviving 30 minutes in 1.5 meters of water. It feels very solid, with ruggedized material surrounding the phone, and Corning Gorilla Glass 5 to protect the screen.

There is software for one-handed use which shrinks the display to a corner of the screen, but for general tasks, you'll probably want to stick with two-handed operation. It measures 6.30 x 3.02 x 0.39 inches (HWD) and weighs 7.7 ounces (218 g), making it a bit wider and thicker than the smallest Galaxy S20 phone with its 6.2-inch screen (think of it as having a rugged case built in) but about the same width and weight as the Galaxy S20 Ultra (with its much larger 6.9-inch screen). When you look at XCover Pro, it looks pretty much like a standard modern Android phone, with a 6.3-inch AMOLED FHD+ (1080-by-2340 pixel) screen that takes up the large majority of the front, with no buttons and what Samsung calls an 'infinity' display with a little cut out in the upper left hand corner for the front facing camera. While it's not the kind of phone you're likely to buy for yourself, it fills an important niche for organizations that need devices that will get a lot of use, particularly in challenging environments. The ruggedized phone is really aimed at frontline workers, ranging from retail store employees to outdoor workers.

I'm not the target audience for Samsung's Galaxy XCover Pro.
