Several days ago I was writing about Sonim XP3 Enduro, a handset that helped the family of rugged cell phones to extend. Going way beyond the success of that certain moment, the company decided that moving on is probably the best thing that anyone could do. Therefore, Sonim Technologies has just announced their latest partnership, with Land Rover, the famous British vehicle manufacturer. This is a sign of unceasing efforts and impressive growth. I don’t know the impact this partnership will have on Land Rover’s sales, but there’s no doubt about the fact that Sonim will take advantage of this initiative.
The collaboration has a bold purpose, to design and develop three new co-branded resistant handsets that are expected to go on sale starting next year. Two of those handsets are already in work, the Land Rover S1 and the Land Rover S2 G4 that were said to be launched in the first half of 2009. As far as the third one is concerned, it doesn’t have a name for the moment and it will probably hit the market until the end of 2009. The companies have great hopes about their partnership and they expect to make several deals with top operators, to help them spread the rugged cell phones in more than 40 countries.
The three devices will closely follow the Sonim Enduro’s features, although they won’t be as tough as their predecessor. However, expect the devices to be able to withstand harsh conditions, such as salt, fog, humidity, shocks provoked by thermal factors or by the transport. More than that, you can always “drown” your cell phone, as they’re completely submersible, or throw them from an altitude of approximately 1.6 meters. Imagine that you can also exercise your creativity, throwing it from any angle you might want to choose and the Sonim cell phone will be just fine. All good things must come to an end, and so does the features-list, as there isn’t more information available about what this company is preparing.
