While water and dust resistance have been features touted by some recent high-end smartphones, NOMU puts its ruggedized $250 flagship phablet through a wash cycle to test its resilience.
While we are seeing water and dust resistance becoming a feature in flagship devices such as Apple’s iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus and Samsung’s ruggedized Galaxy S7 active smartphones, they still command a rather hefty price tag. However, you don’t need to break the bank in order to get your hands on an IP67 or IP68 certified device that can put up with a bit of punishment.
Perhaps of some interest to those looking for rugged phones is NOMU, a Chinese phone manufacturer with just under a decade of manufacturing experience under their belt.
