Appearance and build quality

If you carefully examine this phone - the Chinese Land Rover - you will notice that it is very weighty, but it is convenient to hold it thanks to the rubber sidewalls - black accents. You just won’t let go of your hands, even wet ones. No creaks are observed. Headset jacks and charging are covered with a rubber cover. It fits snugly. Removable easily. Rubber pads placed on the buttons protect the sides that are at the edges. However, the strange thing is that the buttons are higher than the level of protection, and therefore it makes little sense. The speaker hole is located on the rear panel and has double protection in the form of a grid and film. There is also a LED flash, which also acts as a flashlight and a camera. You can remove the back cover and see that the entire perimeter is protected by a silicone gasket. There is one more. She hides in the recess of the main body. We insert the battery. At the top of the case, the Chinese “Land Rover” attracts attention with its special cord mount. A narrow strap can also be placed in it. The assembly takes place in the reverse order: gaskets - cover - screws. Remove the plug located above the connectors. According to a ten-point system, the outwardly Chinese Land Rover can be rated at eight. In the style you can not refuse, a high-quality and durable phone assembly.

Disassembling a mobile phone is easy. In order to open the way to the screws, four plugs should be removed located at the edges. They have a different shape, but, remembering which one should be placed, then you can simply insert them into place. We remove the cover, remove the battery, unscrew the 4 screws on the side and the same amount hidden behind the plugs. As a result, the device is divided into two halves. The case is made of reliable plastic of green color (this is not about the coating, so the color will not be erased from time to time). Stiffeners are located in their places. At the top of the board is a camera and flash. There is also a vibrator and a decent size loud speaker. Below there is a place for a SIM card and a memory card. A microphone is integrated at the back of the board. The TFT display, does not like the sun, it is required to cover with a hand. There are headset jacks (2.5 mm) and micro-USB. The Chinese "Land Rover" received a keyboard protected by a silicone gasket. The side buttons are distinguished by a tight stroke. They have no additional protection. The speaker, which is located on the front panel, is also not reinforced. Theoretically, special glue should not let water in. If we talk about the internal content of the model, it can also be estimated at eight points out of 10. It looks reliable. Some attempts to save on protection are visible. The manufacturer guarantees that dust does not get into the device, while briefly diving to a depth of 1 meter, the water does not interfere with the operation of the mobile phone. Briefly about the tests. Throwing from a height of half a meter to five, the device withstood excellently. Only a couple of scratches on the side panels while maintaining full performance. The screen is not damaged, as it is located in the recess, which is created by overlays. Sand and dust tests are also excellent. Dry dirt, crammed into creases on the case, did not harm the phone . When hitting the curb, no damage was noticed either. So we described in detail the Chinese “Land Rover”, the photos are attached to the material.
