Oukitel WP35 set to launch as more stylish rugged smartphone with colossal battery and Android 14

Oukitel may have been inspired by the Honor Magic6 to make its next upcoming smartphone - although its take on the design has reportedly resulted in a profoundly chunky version thanks to its 10,000mAh+ battery and IP68/IP69K/MIL-STD-810H ingress protection ratings. It will launch with more up-to-date software than the average rugged phone and microSD card support, although its main advantage is said to come with a potential drawback.
