The Galaxy XCover 7 is more affordable but also has lower-end specifications than the last XCover. It has the basics: a protected chassis, a removable battery and 5G. But users have to make do with less performance. Can this be a good thing? Or may Samsung have cut the wrong corners on this phone?

A non exynos soc, screen with no PWM & a user removable battery. This may be an ideal phone if the price is right.

      It does not.

      It also doesn't have a fingerprint unlock which is a rather weird omission.

      If you're not dead set on a removable battery, the Sony Xperia 10 V has sightly better specs for slightly less money and it's smaller and lighter.

        Probably targeted for construction or similar working environment where gloves are commonly used.
