What is it? The Oukitel WP5 is the cheapest large capacity Android 10 rugged smartphone available right now.

What else should we know? Inside, there’s a quad-core MediaTek chipset that is paired with 4GB of RAM and 32GB storage memory, all of this running on stock Android 10.
Its 5.5-inch display has a fairly low resolution (720 x 1440 pixels) which should - in theory - improve battery life. Add in a 4-LED bar, a fingerprint reader, triple rear camera sensors and Corning Gorilla glass and you have a pretty impressive entry-level durable smartphone.
Oukitel has also managed to squeeze two Nano SIM slots and a type-C connector in what is a capable, decently-priced smartphone that will survive more than a few shocks. Just bear in mind that a big battery means an increased thickness (18mm) and heavier weight than most other non-rugged smartphones around today (a whopping 285g).
Any cons? We'd love to have 64GB storage at this price.
