Editorial note

The RugGear RG600 stands out for its robustness and exceptional resistance, thanks to its IP68 certification that protects it against water, dust, and shocks. Its rugged design makes it an ideal choice for users operating in challenging environments. Additionally, the 4.5-inch capacitive touchscreen provides a pleasant visual experience, although the resolution of 854 x 480 pixels may seem insufficient for modern multimedia content. In terms of performance, the smartphone is equipped with a MediaTek MT6582 processor at 1.3 GHz with 4 cores, ensuring decent performance for multitasking. However, the 1 GB RAM capacity and 4 GB internal storage may limit the user experience, especially when using more demanding applications. The 3600 mAh battery is a major asset, allowing for prolonged use with a talk time of 7 hours on 3G. That said, for heavy users, this capacity may not be sufficient, especially when using power-hungry applications. Despite its many advantages, the RugGear RG600 also has drawbacks. Its Android 4.4.2 operating system is outdated, which could restrict access to certain modern applications. Additionally, the weight of 260 g may make prolonged use less comfortable, and the lack of FM radio could disappoint some users. Overall, the RugGear RG600 offers good value for money, especially for those looking for a rugged and reliable smartphone, although one must consider its limitations in terms of performance and features.
