The Sonim XP3

We’ve mentioned Sonim and the XP3 before – and this is really just to update our UK readers on where to get it should they want one.

Firstly, you can get it for free on a Vodafone contract – otherwise, you’ll soon be able to grab one SIM-free for £245 including VAT, direct from Sonim. They currently have a up a registration page, with an email entry form so that you can be informed when that Tough-Tough-phone touches-touches-down!

The XP3 has some mean specs too:
* can be submerged in one meter of water for up to 30 minutes
* will remain in full working order at temperatures of between -20C to +60C temperatures.
* unconditional three-year warranty
* 330 minutes of talktime / nine days of standby time

You can check out the device, and register for getting one, here.

About The Author

Ben Robinson

Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
