UMIDIGI leads in the category of rugged smartphones in the industry. And to ensure that it keeps leading in the race, the company has unveiled a new rugged BISON 2 series, the successor of its flagship BISON. This new series includes BISON 2 and BISON 2 Pro models. The most significant difference between them is design and storage option.
BISON 2 is made with a composite finish and a 6GB+128GB storage combination, while the other use an industrial-grade rubber material and is equipped with 8GB+256GB.
BISON 2 Pro Unveiled
Just like the vanilla variant, the BISON 2 Pro is powered by MediaTek Helio P90 chipset, an octa-core one with a CPU frequency of up to 2.2GHz. It has extraordinary processing capabilities and can respond and handle multitasking quickly.
The phone comes with a 6.5-inch large dot-in display, combined with 2400×1080 high resolution for clearer and finer details.
In terms of camera systems, BISON 2 Pro houses an AI triple camera module on the rear panel. That includes a 48MP primary shooter, a 16MP ultra-wide-angle, and a 5MP macro. It has a hole-punch notch on the front for a 24MP selfie shooter too. Relatively speaking, it has basically a medium-level setup in the entire rugged smartphones market. Opening up new horizons for outdoor photography.
In addition to that , the new series sports a large 6150mAh battery and supports 18W fast charging. Running on Android 12, the most advanced Android operating system available, is smoother, more secure, and more private. Besides that, it also supports multi-function NFC, convenient for various daily tasks.
Of course it is a rugged device too, meaning IP68, IP69K & MIL-STD-810G certifications. For all the waterproof, drop-proof, and shock-proof qualities. What’s more, it allows you to enjoy music or radio without restraint due to wireless FM, with no need for any cable connected.
