Kyocera International has added the DuraXV Extreme+ flip phone–without camera–to its lineup of military-grade rugged devices with Verizon.
This device joins the standard DuraXV Extreme+, which was launched at the end of last year. Kyocera created DuraXV Extreme+ to help businesses cut costs and improve employee focus; the non-camera option is designed for sensitive work environments and operations that can’t allow cameras, as well as privacy-minded customers who need a simple, loud device that can take some drops and spills. The first flip feature phone to feature a 2GHz smartphone processor (MediaTek 6761 Helio A22, 3-Core), Extreme+ has a quicker response time when running apps. Additional new features include barometric pressure sensor supporting FCC Z-Axis / E911; Wi-Fi 802.11ac support for faster data transfer speed and Wi-Fi calling with HD Voice; Bluetooth 5.1 LE/EDR support for extended connection range and improved power efficiency; and a remote support preload application for secure, enhanced live technical support.
