The new Chinese brand FOSSiBOT announced the release of its first rugged smartphone FOSSiBOT F101, equipped with a capacious 10,600 mAh battery that ensures long-term operation of the device offline. The FOSSiBOT startup was founded in Shenzhen in July 2022 by a team of specialists with over 8 years of experience in the development of rugged smartphones as well as portable power plants.
FOSSiBOT released the FOSSiBOT F2400 portable power plant last November, and now it’s time for the company to debut in the rugged smartphone market.
In terms of protection against moisture, dust, shock and drops, the F101 meets IP68, IP69 standards and is certified in accordance with the military standard MIL-STD-810H, which allows you to take it with you on outdoor recreation without fear of the vagaries of the elements. It can also be used at work by builders, firefighters, extreme sports enthusiasts, in a word, wherever one has to face the adverse effects of the external environment.
A distinctive feature of the F101 is the huge speaker grill on the rear panel, which has a diameter of 36 mm with a peak power of 3.5 W, providing a volume of up to 123 dB.
Another highlight of the F101 is a 10,600 mAh battery, which, thanks to the smartphone’s relatively small 5.45-inch HD+ display and energy-efficient Helio A22 quad-core processor, ensures long battery life. In particular, in standby mode, the smartphone is able to work 1050 hours, which is almost 44 days.
The F101 has 4 GB of RAM, 64 GB of flash storage, and a slot for memory cards up to 128 GB. The smartphone is equipped with an 8-megapixel front camera and a 24-megapixel main camera with phase detection autofocus, complemented by a 5-megapixel sensor and a 0.3-megapixel scene depth sensor.
In honor of the start of global sales, the price of the FOSSiBOT F101 smartphone will be less than $100, although smartphones with such memory parameters are offered mainly at a price of about $140.
