    Rugged Smart phone

    My phone is on its last legs (much like it's owner.) I had to compromise last time I bought one and it isn't waterproof unlike its predecessor.

    I've been looking at various rugged phones compatible with various outdoor activities. Must haves are:
    Waterproof
    Shockproof
    Android (preferably 10).
    SD card
    Good camera
    Long battery life
    Small screen (4-5 inches)

    Currently looking likely to buy a Unihertz Atom L
    Anybody got anything that ticks these boxes.

    Not actually got any of these myself, but may help narrow down your choices if you've not seen it already

    Thanks Yaks.

    Had a look through that list and I think I've looked at them all or similar models. I don't understand why so many are so big. If you need that amount of screen real estate in a tough environment you'd be better off with a tablet.
