best known for their bulldozers, diggers and all things predominantly
yellow and seriously mean, it's safe to assume that this is one mobile
device that's not going to shy away from more than its fair share of
knocks and scrapes whilst making fairly lurid and suggestive remarks at
any slinky LG phone that happens to pass on by - and you'd be right.
In fact, put this phone in the ring with the likes of the Razr (with its
seemingly tough guy name) and you'd be daft not to place your bets on a
knockout well within the first round - and lets just say that the victor
wouldn't be'ฆwell it wouldn't be yellow.
Designed in partnership with Sonim to operate at temperatures ranging
from -20C to 60C and to withstand just about anything you can throw at
it (within reason) the JCB ToughPhone may not have one of the most
inspiration names we've come across but there's no denying that it fits
the bit perfectly as well as serves to leave you under no illusions
whatsoever that this cell phone's favourite colour probably isn't pink
and that it probably thinks that Brad's wife's '�a bit of alright' (yes
this phone is not only tough, but it also has impeccable taste).
Billed as being splash resistant, drop resistant, shock resistant and
dust resistant, the JCB ToughPhone has not only been tested to near
destruction (including being thrown into cement mixers, apparently) but
it even comes with an extra loud (exclusive) ring tone (as well as
Bluetooth and push-to-talk) that sounds from two speakers so you can
hear it over, we assume, a battalion of plant machinery.
The Sonim XP1 JCB ToughPhone, which can also be used as a two-way
radio, is already available on a range of European networks though
apparently you have to beat Mr-T at sudden death arm wrestling in order
to qualify to own one (which seems a bit harsh).
