Sonim XP5s XP5800 4G LTE Military Grade, Single-SIM, Rugged PTT Feature Phone, 16GB, 2GB RAM, (Black) - AT&T Unlocked

Amazing product! I decided to hop on the "dumb phone" trend to reduce my screen time and, after hours of research, found this to be the perfect solution. Incredibly durable — seriously, this thing is a brick (in a good way) so I don't have to worry about wearing it to work. Limited internet capabilities (bonus points) and a decent flashlight/camera. The first device I received was locked from the previous company that must've been using them as work phones but the seller was incredibly responsive and helpful with processing my replacement. 10/10 customer service and product support. Better than endless hours of doom-scrolling and may potentially be used as a hammer in a pinch!

Phone quality: Runs very well. I accidentally ran it over with my 3 ton Hummer and it was flattened into the ground. All I had to do was pull it out, hose it off and it was good to go.

The phone won't send pictures and sim card one does not work nor does the volume control

Let me begin by saying I like this XP5s and would recommend it at this point. I am not tech-savvy and do not use all the features, at least to advantage. For example I have no use for the PTT and find the button to be in the way sometimes. But the sturdiness of the phone is impressive and many of its features seem to work fine. That said, it is not perfect. We live in something of a dead zone and I cannot make or receive calls at our home and to a large extent in the immediate vicinity. (Texts work fine here.) This would not be the only phone with this problem, but I have had others which can penetrate the dead zone. Also the XP5s seems to find other dead zones and can have problems with reception elsewhere. That lack of sensitivity has been disappointing. It does not have a touch screen, and that is not a problem for me. I dislike smartphones because I find myself always pushing some button unintentionally. I find the settings menu fairly easy to navigate and somewhat intuitive. On the other hand, the buttons are on the small side and I would not want to try to make calls or particularly send texts with gloves, despite advertisement to the contrary. One other issue is using a headset. (I have one I like from a previous phone.) It has taken some experimentation in order to use the Klein 3.5mm adapter successfully. The contacts on the Klein and the phone apparently struggle to make an adequate connection, and I have found that they need to be wiped before each use. Otherwise the volume may be affected, there may be excess static or crackling in the connection, and calls may be dropped. But when the adapter connection is clean, or just during a non-headset call, the call usually is quite clear. If using the speakerphone feature the sound is loud and clear. It may be clearer than some previous phones, particularly smartphones, and volume from the speakers is great. I have been in touch with Sonim technicians by chat or directly, and it must be said that they have been uniformly helpful and responsive. The phone has a good back-up in that way, especially appreciated by those of us who lack some of the technical competence that is so useful today. I have not tried dunking the phone or dropping it, but it offers the appearance of a very sturdy instrument that would not be liable to many of the hazards of other phones. At this point battery life seems to be quite good. For example I last charged it four days ago and the battery life is at 78%. I don't use a cell phone extensively and I am guessing I will get at least two weeks from a charge normally. Overall, the XP5s more than meets my needs at present. It is not perfect but on the other hand probably will outlast some previously inadequate phones.

I ordered this to replace a cheap flip phone for a family member. The battery still has life left in it and lasts several days without needing a charge. Durability is a plus.

Very good phone.

A basic phone, but works great! T9 texting works great. The phone never crashes and the battery lasts a long time!

Have the phone in your pocket and bend over -even when you think the keys are locket - well you'll inadvertently press a button that sends out the S.O.S. distress function and everyone on your group will receive your S.O.S. along with the RCMP who will arrive after about an hour and a half. You can not change the key's and you'll end up keeping your phone in your truck. This is the biggest PoS I've owned since the last Sonim I had. I attaches this to my drone, flew it up to about 500m and dropped its not that durable. The sound quality was horrible, functionally the keys had no lock that would prevent sending out the S.O.S. The keys are too small, too close together and too easy to press. All in all, I have no idea why this phone exists in 2025 and I don't know why anyone would want it.

great i love it

I had it for 6 months and it has had some impact, it’s been dropped 20 feet several times but settings keep returning to default today it crashed
