Samsung Galaxy Xcover 6 Pro 6.6" 128GB 5G Unlocked & SIM Free Smartphone

I wanted a mobile phone with a removable battery, therefore I chose this one. I understand that the phone is tougher than average, although I bought a tough case to go with it. I hope that the phone will last for several years. I shall soon buy a spare battery. Expert reviews give this phone a mediocre rating, but I like this phone’s micro-sd card socket, and removable battery.

All good

I sat with my order pending for 2 months as the descriptions (all retailers iirc) say it's Android 8. Since I wanted latest Android Auto, I'd need to update and select android 13 appropriate for the model that's not coming directly from Samsung.HAPPY TO SAY: it came with Android 13 pre-installed - but why can't retailers get that detail updated on their merchant sites? ( Was it ever available with 8.1?)Battery came at 60% and I was worried beforehand about either my old or new phone have the battery die in mid transfer - as no way to get charge in if direct connection ( I tried a chargeable hub but unsuccessful getting either phone to charge when linked).Used Samsung smart switch - and the good news is that I could install it on my old phone in send mode and when connections are inevitably lost (old phone a bit fragile), the process seems eminently continuable from the last activity. Leastwise I've not found an issue.I found my chargers and wall sockets were not powerful enough to stop the xcover from draining charge, so I accepted defeat, powered off and charged to 100% overnight.On continuation, I left both phones on charge and did the transfer on 5Ghz WiFi side by side ( not certain they talked directly rather than via hub, but nothing to lose😎).My old phone was nearly 128GB full and I've been skimming larger files for a few months and had backed up all media. Unfortunately, the working free space on the old phone was more than offset by the larger Samsung-Android image and so I just had to not transfer any videos.I've ordered a 45W charger and the next trick is to order a spare battery - the ability to exploit that was much of the rationale for the new phone anyway!Testing app migration for the next few days.

Battery life good plus it's removable. Rugged and fast. Faultless.

I bought this Samsung phone for my husband as his old one suddenly stopped working. The phone arrived the very next morning- about 12h after I ordered it. I’d say you can’t get a delivery much faster than that! It came in new condition, well packed and sealed. The only downside was the charger - it was a type C charger with both ends the same. I had to buy a usb charger so that we would be able to charge the phone. My husband has been using the phone for about a month now and it is working well. He is pleased with it.

Perfect

dus not work as intended glitchy and whil not charge
