Use Brigadier in Extreme Conditions Brigadier is ready for action. It meets the US Department of Defense Military Standard 810G to protect against dust, shock, vibration, temperature extremes, blowing rain, low pressure, solar radiation, salt fog, humidity and water immersion.

“I for one have the Kyocera Brigadier, and yeah it doesn’t have those flashy gimmicks of the iPhone and at a third of the cost it’s 1000X’s more rugged too.”
I for one have two cans and a string, and yeah it doesn’t have those flashy gimmicks of the Kyocera Brigadier and despite being almost free it’s 1000X’s more rugged too.
I can repair mine anywhere in the world for free. It isn’t spied on by the NSA like your phone and doesn’t need cell tower signals like your overpriced phone. It just keeps on working despite water, dust, dirt, radiation, internet kill switch being activated, etc.

A .50 round through anything is pretty much a summary execution LOL.

Publicity? Sort of a modern take on the old Timex "it takes a licking and keeps on ticking" ads? Or from Peter McWilliams' Personal Computer Book "the Timex-Sinclair computer: takes a shooting and keeps on computing".

Where is the microwave charging video? I think that is the best feature of the 6, after-all, everyone has a microwave. You do realize that video is a hoax, don't you?

Sorry, but there are those of us who need something with more than a 50ft range.

Day 4 of 6? How is he going to treat the remains for the next 2 days?

“Are you claiming your Brigadier will withstand a .50 Cal?”
No, I’m saying that the Brig can hold up against more punishment than the i6 can, and there is nothing short of an APC or a tank that can withstand a .50 cal.
IMO the video was nothing more than a waste of precious ammo

The length of a man’s string depends only on his vision.

Interesting that the bullet begins to tumble end over end within 5 feet of exiting the shattered remains of the iphone after the knife edge horizontal impact. The super slow motion captures the bullet path and the nose of the round flipping over before exiting the frame. Would not want to be jihad Hadji behind the snipers jihad Johnny target who had the iphone to their head before the lights went out, and get hit by a horizontal pig fat lubed and blood stained .50BMG round. Just sayin...
