Let me start by saying this phone is an absolute unit. The first thing you'll notice is the weight—696g is no joke. But after using it as my daily driver for a while, regular phones feel like toys. The rubber and metal frame scream durability, and I’ve put that to the test with accidental drops and even a dunk in water (thanks to its IP68 rating). No scratches, no issues.

The 23800mAh battery is a game-changer. I’m a heavy user—gaming, streaming, you name it—and this beast lasts me 4 days on a single charge. And when it’s time to recharge, the 120W fast charger gets me back to 90% in just 1.5 hours. Pro tip: Turn on the internal cooling fan while fast charging to avoid overheating.

The projector is a fun addition. It’s not cinema-quality (it’s a bit grainy), but for impromptu movie nights or sharing documents, it works surprisingly well. The adjustable wheel on the side lets you tweak the focus easily.

Performance-wise, the MTK Dimensity 8200 processor and 36GB RAM (18GB physical + 18GB virtual) handle everything I throw at it—multitasking, gaming, even running multiple apps simultaneously. Storage isn’t an issue either with 512GB built-in and expandable up to 2TB.

The cameras are decent for a rugged phone. The 200MP main camera captures detailed shots, though I had to tweak settings for optimal results. The night vision mode is impressive, but don’t expect flagship-level color accuracy.

One standout feature? The 1200LM camping light with multiple modes (SOS included). It’s saved me during power outages and camping trips. And yes, it doubles as a power bank—handy when friends’ phones die.

Downsides? The call volume could be louder (even at max), and the weight takes getting used to. But if you need a phone that survives anything while packing insane battery life and unique features like a projector, this is worth every penny.
