Smartphone Recommendation for SMART Mobile

[AMIR AHSANUDDIN AMINUDDIN]

Hi All, 

We are starting to implement SMART Mobile in our patrol and I was wondering if there are any smartphone recommendations.  What are some of the smartphones you guys are using for your SMART mobile in your area and what sort of criteria should I be focusing on when making my purchases?  

It is possible to list down your top 3 smartphone.  Budget per phone is RM1000 (about USD240).

Thanks, 
Amir

The phones made by Blackview are generally good. We prefer the rugged ones with the largest possible battery.  If you search the forum here there are several conversations about phones.

Hello Amir

As Rich suggested, SMART users have reported Blackview rugged phones as working well with SMART mobile/Cybertracker. Some options in decreasing order of cost, that might match your budget are;

Blackview BV9500 Pro (has a 10000 mAH battery + digital walkie-talkie function for communications)

Blackview BV9100 (has a 13000 mAH battery, see the discussion on this model and the BV9500 initiated by Michiel Hotte)

Blackview BV5500 Plus (has a 4400 mAH battery, see the discussion on this model initiated by Prince Ndlovu)

Cheers

Tony
