Description of the Samsung Galaxy Xcover 4s
Are you looking for an affordable smartphone that can stand some rough handling? The Galaxy Xcover 4s by Samsung is the successor to the robust Xcover 4, and it has been improved in various areas. This phone is perfect for students, people with dirty or rough professions, or people who are simply a bit clumsy.
Not only can you drop this device, but it's also dust and proof proof. You can shoot 16-megapixel pictures and the battery has a 2800mAh capacity. The device runs on Android 9.0 Pie and is equipped with 32GB of expandable internal storage.
Dust and water proof with an IP68 certificate
This tough Samsung device comes with an IP68 certification, making it dust and water proof. You'll be able to make calls in the rain, and spilling some water isn't a problem either. That's great news for clumsy people or people who work outside.
Robust with military certificate
Samsung has chosen to equip this Xcover 4s with an MIL-STD 810G certificate. That means the device will still work in very cold or warm temperatures. It also means the device won't break when you drop it, though you should still be careful!
Work the display with gloves
Of course, you can work the screen of the Xcover 4s with your fingers, but it also works if the display is wet. In fact, you can even use the touchscreen when wearing gloves! This way, you can always use the touchscreen!
You can set up the physical button on the side of the device to perform a certain task. For example, you can have it launch a certain app or turn on the flash light. It's handy, quick, secure, and you can use it while wearing gloves!
Expandable storage space
Samsung has equipped this device with 32GB of internal storage. If that's not enough to store all of your pictures, music, and other documents, you can expand the available storage space by adding a memory card.
5.0-inch screen
Samsung has chosen to fit the Xcover 4s with a screen that has a 5.0-inch diagonal and a 1280x720 pixel resolution. It isn't the sharpest display in a smartphone, but that has a positive effect on the battery life. In all, it's a great combination of clarity and efficiency.
Charge the battery via USB-C
The battery of the Xcover 4s has a 2800mAh capacity, the same amount as its predecessor. The manufacturer did opt for a USB-C port, which is a great addition. You'll be able to easily charge the device and synchronise data with the same cable.
16-megapixel pictures
You can shoot pictures of up tp 16-megapixels with the camera on the back of this device. The front camera lets you shoot 5-megapixel selfies, make video calls, or record videos.
Android 9.0 Pie
Out of the box, this phone runs on Android 9.0 Pie. Samsung wouldn't be Samsung if they hadn't addad their own skin to cover Android. You'll notice it by the changed icons and the preinstalled applications. You can start using this Xcover 4s right away!
