Sonim XP8: Full Specifications

Built as a true work phone, the Sonim XP8 centres its appeal on toughness and dependable field use rather than slim styling. Its 5-inch display uses a sharp 1080 x 1920 resolution and Gorilla Glass 3, while the thick reinforced body is rated IP68 and IP69K and tested to MIL-STD-810G standards. Sonim also highlights wet-finger and glove-friendly operation, which suits job sites and other demanding environments. Inside, the XP8 runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 630 with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage, plus microSD expansion up to 128 GB. The 4900 mAh removable battery is another practical touch, with Quick Charge 3.0 support over USB-C and battery life aimed at long shifts. A 12 MP rear camera with flash and an 8 MP front camera cover basic photo and video needs, while dual front-facing speakers, noise-cancelling microphones and support for Wi-Fi calling and VoLTE reinforce its communication focus. Dedicated hardware keys for push-to-talk, SOS and programmable shortcuts, along with a fingerprint sensor, NFC, dual nano-SIM support and Sonim’s accessory connections, make it a highly specialized smartphone for environments where durability matters as much as connectivity.

Pros

  • Battery: The XP8 includes a huge 4900 mAh battery. You can spend hours using the device without having to worry about charging it.
  • Performance: The XP8 is Sonim's most powerful device. It runs even the most demanding games exceptionally well.
  • Durability: As is the case with all Sonim devices, the XP8 provides incredible durability. Sonim sets the standard in terms of ruggedness, and certainly knows how to build a nearly indestructible phone.

Cons

  • Bulkiness: The XP8 is a very thick and heavy phone. As a result, it may feel uncomfortable in your pocket, and be difficult to carry around.
  • Camera: For a phone worth almost $1000 CAD released in 2018, we expected much better from its camera quality.
