Nokia 800 is built with tough usage in harsh environments in mind, hence the name. The device as passed military-grade MIL-STD-810G standard so it can be assumed it won’t be nearly as susceptible to daily wear and tear as an average mobile.
The phone also supports IP68 waterproof and dustproof rating and can be submerged in water up to a depth of 1.5 meters for about 30 minutes.
The mobile features a rugged body design and aesthetic that are mainly to protect it from an accidental drop from over 1.8 meters directly on to concrete. Additionally, since it has passed US military-grade electronic equipment tests, Nokia 800 can withstand extreme temperatures from a range of -20 to even 55 degree Celsius. This is also supplemented by the device being covered with a special rubber from all sides and corners and deep keystrokes.
Nokia 800 supports 4G networks. It supports VoLTE high definition voice call functions and WiFi hotspot features as well. The device will also have an app store and will receive OTA updates after its actual launch. For photography, the handset arrives with a 2 megapixel camera alongside an LED flash.
