Chinese CK800 phone – ready to compete with Sonim XP1?

Who says Chinese handset manufacturers can’t make a durable, high-quality phone? The latest CK800 handset from China proved the opposite. As a matter of fact, this indestructible and fairly ugly baby — I guess it’s quite hard to pair the looks with durability — seems created to compete head to head with Sonim XP1 which we’ve already covered before.

Just like the “world’s toughest phone,” the CK800 can take falls and work under water. And even though I’m still not convinced it can really sustain all the things Sonim’s device can, it’s certainly a viable option — especially when you know it will cost less. Plus, let’s not forget the Chinese phone can be charged with a portable AA-battery charger. Neat, don’t you think?
