As the saying goes, “everything old is new again.”
It’s not just Apple who is repackaging smartphones with improved technical specs. Last week, Wind Mobile launched a candy bar phone called the PCD Z219. We have now learned that Bell will be making space in its stores for the rugged Kyocera DuraXE.
This DuraXE is a flip phone that will officially launch on March 31st and resembles the Motorola Brute of days past. Packed into this LTE-enabled PTT (Push-to-talk) device is a 1.1GHz quad-core processor and 1GB RAM. In addition, the DuraXE features a glorious 2.6-inch 320×240 pixel display, 5 megapixel camera, 8GB internal memory and can hold up to 32GB with a microSD card, 1500mAh battery, and is certified dustproof and waterproof.
The Kyocera DuraXE is actually a solid purchase for those who work in the field. Perhaps we will review it and put it through a similar test like we did with the Brute (video below).
