Oukitel WP35: World's thinnest rugged 5G smartphone with 11,000 mAh battery all set to hit shelves May 13

Rugged phones are reminiscent of bulky, under-powered devices with little appeal, but Oukitel changes all that with the new WP35 — the world's thinnest 5G rugged phone sporting a massive 11,000 mAh battery.

The Oukitel WP35 is aimed at those who require excellent connectivity in demanding environments. In doing so, the smartphone does not sacrifice aesthetics and sports an ergonomic design with diamond patterns on the back cover for that exquisite look and in-hand feel.

The WP35 measures just 14.9 mm thick yet is extremely durable with military-grade drop resistance and IP68 and IP69K waterproof ratings.

Powering the Oukitel WP35 is the MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ SoC that offers class-leading performance and great battery life. RAM and storage options start from 8 GB + 256 GB but can be configured up to a massive 24 GB + 2 TB for the ultimate in multitasking and data storage.

The WP35's 6.6-inch 2048 x 1080 2.4K display is your window to the world with its unmatched clarity and super sharp visuals. Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection ensures that the WP35's display stays protected from most scratches.

The WP35 also doubles up as an excellent imaging companion thanks to its massive triple 64 + 8 + 2 MP camera array. The 64 MP Sony IMX682 sensor with its large 1/1.73-inch sensor allows for excellent photo quality while the 8 MP lens doubles-up as an IR Night Vision camera that takes stunning low light pictures no matter in the city or in the woods. Additionally, a 32 MP sensor helps take great selfies and group photos.

The Oukitel WP35 will be available from May 13 on AliExpress and on the official Oukitel Store starting from US$179.99, lower than the regular retail price of $249.99. During the premiere period from May 13 to 17, there will be an additional discount.
