Notes
Ultra-rugged 4G smart feature phone with a large keypad, a freely assignable PTX key and a freely assignable SOS key, LED torch, Wi-Fi and Lone Worker Protection support. 1.5 W, up to 103 dB loudspeaker. The 2.4-inch display is described as capacitive. Battery comes as 2800 or 3120 mAh. Specs come only from RugGear's launch news; the RG170 has no product or archive page, and only accessory listings still name it, so it is marked discontinued (inferred).
