Why Consumer Smartphones Fail in Security Operations
Security teams rely on constant communication, GPS coordination, and durable mobile devices during patrols, incident response, and monitoring operations. Standard consumer smartphones are not designed for these demanding environments.
Security teams operate in:
- Rain, dust, and extreme heat
- Night patrol environments
- High-risk response situations
- 12-hour rotating shifts
- Remote or low-signal areas
Consumer devices are not:
- Drop & weather resistant
- Built for continuous usage
- Built for glove operations
- Designed for Push-to-Talk
- Prepared for multi-day use
This can lead to:
- Frequent replacements
- Device downtime during shifts
- Communication breakdown
- Increased IT overhead
- Higher long-term spend

Rugged phones that are built for harsh environments, drops, long shifts, and outdoor conditions, making them more reliable than consumer devices for patrol and response teams.
IP68 indicates full dust protection and water resistance beyond 1.5 meter depth for up to 30 minutes.
It depends on your business requirements. Many of our rugged devices support PTT / PoC functionality, allowing instant communication similar to two-way radios using mobile data.
Battery life ranges from 4,000mAh to over 33,000mAh, often lasting full multi-shift operations without recharge.
Absolutely! Rugged phones are not only cost-effective, but they reduce breakages and increase lifespan of the device resulting in lower total ownership cost.
Yes, all our devices support GPS, GLONASS, Galileo & BeiDou which works very well in remote areas.
