CROSSCALL waterproof smartphone could compete with Apple and Samsung models

Though they’re not a home brand name here in the UK, French company CROSSCALL have released their plans for a new ultra-resistant, waterproof smartphone. The company are known for their outdoor mobile technology, offering a range of outdoor and professional phones.





Their newest unveiling revealed the CROSSCALL TREKKER-X4, a video-focused smartphone that will be available from October 25th, 2018. This new smartphone will enable users to experience every one of their outdoor trips to the fullest by providing a phone with a unique and intuitive interface that is always ready for action. The phone is shock resistant, waterproof, and extremely rugged, meaning that it’s perfect for all of your climbing, diving, surfing experiences.



The CROSSCALL TREKKER-X4 is equipped with a lens that is similar to the best of action cameras. Thanks to the smartphone’s integrated app, you can easily and instantly film, edit, and share your exploits and experiences on social media. It’s the perfect smartphone for adventurous types with a love of Instagram.



The phone is completely waterproof, able to last an entire hour at a depth of 2 metres. So, as long as you’re not planning on diving too deep or taking it more than 2 metres down into the ocean with you, you could potentially record your undersea adventures like never before. It’s truly a cutting-edge phone, well worthy of its IP68 certification. According to the European IP rating system, that means that this smartphone is fully submersible, as well as dust and sand proof – perfect for those beach holidays and day trips!



This smartphone has undergone some serious testing, including a 2-metre drop onto solid concrete. It comes equipped with shock-absorbent rubber buffers, aluminium side bars, and scratch and impact-resistant Gorilla Glass.



In all of these features, the main attraction is definitely the phone’s camera. The CROSSCALL TREKKER-X4 has a powerful auto focus function, able to capture crystal-clear images under a range of conditions. It has two independent 88°/170° sensors that allow the auto focus to adapt to all situations regardless of light conditions. The phone also comes with a powerful 2×0.5W flash, which can light up even the darkest of environments. CROSSCALL are confident that you could dive into the murkiest of depths and still get razor-sharp images from their newest smartphone.



The Gorilla Glass on the TREKKER-X4 is thick and hardwearing. The phone is equipped with Gorilla Glass 5, which is 0.9mm thick at the front and 0.7mm at the back. This smartphone’s toughened and extremely durable screen provides optimal definition while also withstanding the test of time.



And as if that wasn’t enough, the phone also benefits from blur-free images thanks to its Hyperstab® technology, where the gyroscopic data analysis is designed to compensate for vibrations or movements.



Finally, the price. There isn’t a set price as of yet, but given previous prices, experts have advised that the TREKKER-X4 will likely be somewhere around £600 – £650. All CROSSCALL mobile products come unlocked and can be used with all operators, according to their site.
