Welcome to Android Central! CAT is probably the best known brand for rugged phones: https://www.catphones.com/en-gb/. AGM is another: https://www.agmmobile.com/. I would be very cautious with any off-brand or no-name phone direct-from-China.

Not sure of your use case, but putting out the rugged case alternative, as well

Another vote for Nokia XR20, I have one and it's pretty rugged. It gets 4 years of security updates and 3 years of OS updates. The only thing that they should have done is use a faster processor. Other than that, it's a good everyday phone. It's meant to last at least 4 years. Good luck

The only thing that they should have done is use a faster processor.

Such is the case with most, if not all rugged themed phones. It's a niche market to begin with, so they have to make tradeoffs to keep them price competitive. You won't get the latest and greatest of everything in addition to the added protection.

If the OP wants top end specs plus extra durability, I suggest getting the phone with the specs they want, then a protective case for impact protection.

according to the forums post, now I am looking the models of the following brands:
CAT
AGM
Doogee
thanks for your response.

top end specs plus extra durability
please suggest some models from the brands

[B. Diddy]

I'd avoid Doogee. They're maybe a step above the terrible no-name "Welcome" phones from Wish, but support will be minimal from the manufacturer.

thanks for the support

What about the new S Active phone I've been hearing about?
