The Samsung Galaxy Xcover 4 can withstand a beating. The unit is equipped with a very robust enclosure and survives this effortlessly, a fall of one and a half metres.

This is the unit the ideal partner for the beach, pool or while performing extreme sports such as kayaking. He is IP67-certified, which allows him a maximum of half an hour under water. Thanks to the MIL-STD-810G standard, is dust-proof guaranteed, and the screen remains readable in (bright) sunlight.

Just like the other two devices, the specifications of the Cat S60 on paper is not really a problem. The Snapdragon 617-chip provides sufficient speed for running common apps and light games, but don’t expect miracles.

This shoot with the 13 megapixel front camera and 5 megapixel lens on the front great holiday snaps, but you should not compare the performance of Android flagships. A handy addition is the camera on the back, which you can use to see how hot the water of the sea or the swimming pool.

This is useful when you are on vacation, for example, going hiking and not getting your gloves wants to pull it out. The Cat S60 is by far the most expensive phone in this list, and also by far the most robust.

Last but not least: a real standout in this list. Where the other phones the image of bouwvakkerstelefoon honor to do so, the LG Q7, more of a stylistic flagship. The device is also not as strong as the other solid smartphones, but it deserved a spot.

The LG Q7 is both stylish and robust. The design is grotens copied from the LG G7 ThinQ, his big brother, and the housing is waterproof. Thus, you can feel free to take them to the beach, in the rain or even underwater.

In addition, the MIL-STD-810G standard to ensure that it is completely dust proof and even the most miserable weather conditions can handle. The plastic casing is a lot stronger than a coat of glass like many of its competitors have.

Furthermore, the LG Q7 reasonably fast hardware, a beautiful and sharp display and 3000 mAh battery. The cameraopstelling is identical to that of the samsung Galaxy Xcover 4: a 13 megapixel lens on the back and 5-megapixel front-facing camera. This makes the unit suitable for holiday pictures. In addition, the front camera has a wide angle lens, so you can easily group photos.
