Do you need a phone that can take a knock? Or better still: one that survives where other smartphones fail? The Samsung Galaxy Xcover series has been specially developed for anyone working in construction, industry, healthcare or who simply loves a bit of adventure. No more panic when it comes to drops, water or dust. Find out below why the Xcover is the ultimate partner for tough jobs.

- Swappable battery
- Programmable buttons
- Not the fastest
All Samsung Galaxy Xcover phones
Built to last (IP68 & MIL-STD-810H)
Let’s be honest: a glass smartphone looks stunning, but on a building site or whilst mountain biking, it’s only a matter of time before it cracks. The Galaxy Xcover models are certified to IP68 and the military standard MIL-STD-810H.
What does this mean for you?
- Water- and dust-resistant: You can drop it in the sand or rinse it under the tap without a worry.
- Shock-resistant: Designed to withstand drops from working heights.
- Glove Touch: The screen is extra sensitive, so you can operate it even whilst wearing (work) gloves or with wet fingers.
Smart features for professionals
The XCover isn’t just ‘brute force’; it’s a smart tool. One of its most appreciated features is the programmable XCover Key. With a single press of this button on the side, you can instantly open your favourite app, switch on the torch or use the Push-to-Talk function (like a walkie-talkie). Ideal when you need to communicate quickly with colleagues.
The power of the removable battery
At a time when almost every smartphone has a built-in battery, the Xcover remains true to flexibility. Most Xcover models feature a removable battery. Has your battery run out during a long working day? Simply pop in a fully charged one and you’re good to go straight away. No faffing about with power banks or waiting by a socket.
Which Galaxy XCover is right for you?
The range is constantly evolving. Whilst the Xcover 5 is a compact and affordable entry-level model for basic use, the newer XCover 7 Pro or XCover 7 offer considerably more processing power, a larger screen and 5G support.
Are you a self-employed professional who also handles admin on your phone and needs fast internet? Then go for the Pro models. Are you simply looking for a work phone to ensure you’re reachable? In that case, the basic model is often more than enough.
