World’s Toughest Mobile Phone. Really? Yes!

On their news portal page, Bluewin (a leading Swiss internet service provider) recently featured the XP1 front and center. The article's title is “World’s Toughest Mobile Phone. Really?” 

The copy reads:

“The Sonim XP1 is almost "indestructible" according to its manufacturer who challenges people to try and destroy the phone. So people around the world have tried over and over to break it. Almost all of them fail. And some of them have documented their attempts on YouTube.

And the XP1 is indeed amazing, standing up to many challenges: One can throw it out of the fourth story of a house, take a shower with it, have a fork-lift truck roll over it, put it into the deep-freeze, even shoot it, and it will still function.

In England the Lifestyle magazine "Maxim" even tried to execute the phone, placing it in an electric chair, giving it poison by injection, hanging it … but at the end it had to be buried "alive".

The Maxium piece was intended as a humorous takeoff on all of the XP1 torture tests, and it’s a perfect example of how the indestructible equipment concept has really gotten people interested in the XP1.

Another good example is all of those user video contributions on "YouTube" which show that the Sonim XP1 is actually virtually indestructible."
