Samsung Electronics Canada today announced the new Galaxy XCover6 Pro, a purposefully engineered, enterprise-ready smartphone that is powerful enough to support today’s most demanding businesses. The XCover6 Pro delivers enhanced mobility with strong performance, end-to-end security, and ruggedized durability to help employees get more from their device, whether they’re in the office or out in the field.
“The expansion of mobile technology in the workplace means business is no longer confined to an office, and companies must evolve to keep up with this ever-changing landscape,” said KC Choi, EVP and Head of Global Mobile B2B Team, MX Business at Samsung Electronics. “We created the Galaxy XCover Pro series to give companies a mobile device strong enough to withstand the rigours of business on the frontline. We’re excited to extend this commitment further with the introduction of the Galaxy XCover6 Pro, a device that pairs uncompromised durability with seamless connectivity to unlock success for businesses of all shapes and sizes.”
The Galaxy XCover6 Pro excels in ruggedized performance, with an enhanced 6nm processor that delivers supercharged speeds and shortens work time to help employees get more done in their day. The XCover6 Pro offers expandable storage with an optional microSD card[1] meaning there are no compromises on the work you do. This device is the first in the XCover series to support 5G networking[2], making it possible to work fr6om your favourite location if a signal can be found. With 6GHz band support in Wi-Fi 6E, the XCover6 Pro can make collaboration with colleagues easier and more impactful[3].
Today, work can happen anywhere, and employees need a device that’s agile and reliable to support them with their daily tasks. With the Galaxy XCover6 Pro, users can conveniently extend the battery life of their device with its long-lasting, replaceable battery (sold separately)[4] that can be easily swapped with a fresh one when it runs out. In addition, thanks to convenient POGO charging[5] capabilities, multiple users can dock their device and quickly power up for uninterrupted productivity.
For workers who split their time between the office and working remotely, the Galaxy XCover6 Pro comes equipped with Samsung DeX[6]. Samsung DeX enables users to connect[7] their device to an external display, keyboard and mouse to enjoy a PC-like experience. Employees can also use their XCover6 Pro to take pictures and notes on the go, and then seamlessly access the information they captured to build reports once they’re back at their desk — all using one device.
The Galaxy XCover6 Pro is designed to endure extreme working conditions, making it the ideal partner for any business function — whether it’s in the hands of delivery drivers, sales associates, or police officers. With a durable MIL-STD-810H[8] certified design, IP68 rating[9] and Corning® Gorilla® Glass Victus®+, it is built to withstand severe weather, drops, and other hazards that come with working in the field. Further, in environments where gloves are required for workers, Touch Sensitivity[10] settings can be adjusted to increase the screen’s receptiveness, while enhancements for touch in wet environments make it easier to use when your hand is damp in rainy conditions.
The Galaxy XCover6 Pro is built to last, so it can deliver maximum value to businesses while minimizing impact on the environment. Its durable design, inclusive of recycled plastics and a replaceable battery, allows it to maintain peak performance throughout its lifecycle. Samsung also provides security updates for up to five years, and four additional One UI and OS upgrades[11] after the initial global launch, helping to meet Galaxy for the Planet’s goal of reducing e-waste.
The Galaxy XCover6 Pro is one of the most durable smartphones and it’s also one of the least bulky. Its toughness is balanced with a stylish, sleek design more commonly found on consumer devices, giving it a slimmer and more ergonomic feel than traditional ruggedized smartphones. The XCover6 Pro is under ten-millimeters thick and features a dynamic 6.6-inch full-screen display[12] with a super-smooth 120Hz refresh rate[13].
The Galaxy XCover6 Pro is designed to help businesses grow through the ongoing evolution of mobile technology. It’s protected by Samsung’s leading end-to-end mobile security, Samsung Knox, which delivers multi-layered protection anchored from the chip up. The platform works like a vault with hardware-based protections, fully integrated with software to deliver end-to-end and real-time protection against ongoing threats facing the modern workforce.
Samsung’s One UI[14] brings an added level of protection, giving IT administrators and users easy control over their devices with an intuitive interface, including transparent sharing and protection options. Administrators can remotely manage device integrity to ensure they are secure and untampered with, while biometric support of facial recognition and fingerprint ensure the intended user is the only one able to access the device.
The Galaxy XCover6 Pro can be tailored to fit any business. It includes two programmable keys that can be customized to perform specific functions[15], depending on the business. Users can also use the device as an enterprise-grade barcode scanner through Knox Capture[16] or as a walkie-talkie through its push-to-talk[17], which now comes with loud speaker volume[18]. As every job comes with different demands, the XCover6 Pro comes with a wide variety of Samsung and partner accessories[19] such as Smart Case, POGO/multi-device/battery pack chargers, charging cradles, belt clips and PTT headsets.
The Galaxy XCover6 Pro is available in Canada starting today.
