Abstract: 바르셀로나=아이티투데이 김문기 기자] 갤럭시표 아웃도어 스마트폰이 첫 선을 보였다.25일(현지시간) 삼성전자가 스페인 바르셀로나에서 열린 모바일월드콩글레스(MWC)2013서 아웃도어형 스마트폰 모델인 ‘갤럭시 X커버(Xcover)2'를 공개했다. 갤럭시 엑스커버2 외부 사용성을 고려해 단단한 디자인을 갖추고 있다. 이 때문에 두께와 무게가 다소 두껍고 무겁지만 외부 충격에는 강하게 설계된 모습이다. 갤럭시 엑스커버2 후면 하단 외부버튼은 모두 물리식으...
Rugged design, with IP67 rating, Gorilla Glass screen, Attractive price
Lowresolution screen, Lowresolution camera, Short on internal storage, 800MHz CPU cannot handle Flash
The Samsung Galaxy Extreme is an affordable Android handset whose rugged features may have some appeal, although we noticed a little water seepage under the backplate in our tests unless we were very careful about fitting it securely. It's short on intern...
Resistance to dust, water, and shock, Solid feel, Easy to use with a single hand
Uglylooking display, Camera could be better
All in all, the Samsung Galaxy Xcover combines the functionality of an entry level Android-powered smartphone with the ability to withstand dust, shock, and water damage, which is a profile that few handsets can match. Our only major complaint is that...
Abstract: We all love our smartphones — a computer in our pocket, keeping us connected and organised. The trouble is their fragility.Drop that shiny device, and it won't bounce. Or, likely, do much else until a repair bill is paid. So then, why don't they build the...
Low screen resolution, Some water seepage in our under the tap test, Poor camera, On the large side, No Flash support
The Samsung Galaxy Xcover is a rugged Android smartphone, and in that it has only two real competitors - the Motorola Defy and the newer Defy+, so the comparisons are inevitable. The build doesn't feel quite as solid as that of the Defy, and the general s...

it's got some nice features, but there's not enough to make it stand out. It's not often that Samsung misses the mark, but the Xcover is a definite misstep. It's mostly a case of too little, too late for this rugged phone that doesn't stack up against i...
The Samsung Galaxy Xcover did not really manage to impress us. Granted, a rugged smartphone isn't judged by its performance, and the Xcover has been out for quite a while, but the performance is too mediocre to ignore it completely. The hands-on experie...
Has IP67 certification; so it is water and dustproof, Satisfactory hardware performance, Above average radio coverage
Needs a price drop, superior phones available for a similar price, Will never get an Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich update, The display is just downright bad, Camera won't replace a 5 year old digital camera.
Another fortnight, another farewell to another phone. Sometimes I wish the phone in my possession would somehow be forgotten by the respective PR firm but this was not really a vibe I got from the Samsung Galaxy xCover. I'm not saying it's a bad phone, it...
General specifications lean solidly towards the midrange.
The Samsung Galaxy Extreme looks great, and its rugged features will appeal to many; but look under the hood and you find it is not particularly well specified. ...
Low screen resolution, Some water seepage in our under the tap test, Poor camera, On the large side, No Flash support
Samsung has made rugged handsets before, and not done too bad, but this is the first time the company has brought rugged features to an Android smartphone, and we aren't all that excited, because the general specifications are average rather than great. ...
