"It's where rugged meets secure," said Carl Nerup, SVP, Sonim Technologies. "Imagine the most rugged smartphone on the planet wrapped in a layer of security that meets even the most stringent government requirements."

With the inclusion of OptioCore, the XP7 now carries with it 'Defense Grade' granular level security, bringing to market the toughest and most secure Android mobile device ever developed.

Sonim's suite of mobile devices and accessories meet the most rugged performance standards, which often exceed basic MIL-Spec and IP certifications.  For example, Sonim's newest smartphone, the XP7:

• Was awarded a IP69 rating, given only to devices and accessories that have the highest possible rating against total dust ingress and moisture from steam-jet cleaning;
• Is the only Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) mobile product with both a Band Class 14 and commercial carrier chipset;
• Has been certified as the only COTS device that has attained the highest ISO standards for medical cleaning;
