Drop it, kick it, the new Nokia XR21 won’t care! Featured

By David Heath

The Nokia XR21 is drop-, dust- and water-proof. It withstands everything from tumbling out of your trouser pocket and hitting the ground screen first to hiking in torrential rain for 72 hours.

New research conducted by HMD Global to mark the launch of the near-indestructible Nokia XR21 reveals 62% of Australians have dropped their smartphone and smashed the screen in the past, with the average Australian living with a smashed phone screen for up to four months before they get it fixed (Research of 1,001 Australians was conducted by Perspectus Global in April 2023

The research found three quarters of Australians (74%) agree that phones should be built to last longer. Over three quarters say a lasting battery is the most important factor (77%) when looking for a new phone, followed by its durability (69%) and a good camera (67%).

The Nokia XR21 is built around a die-cast 100% recycled aluminum chassis, and is protected by a body made of durable materials and Corning® Gorilla® Glass Victus® display, all designed and certified to withstand impacts.

Key features of the Nokia XR21 include:

  • Survive being dropped from 1.8m high
  • Last in 1.5m of water for up to an hour
  • Withstand a 100-bar pressure water jet at 80°C
  • Operate in temperatures between -20°C and +55°C
  • Capture imagery at night due to a double flash camera and advanced low light imaging capabilities
  • Usable with wet hands and gloves
  • 2-day battery and fast charging

Nokia describes it as the smartphone version of the famous near-indestructible Nokia 3310.

According to Brenden Folitarik, HMD Global’s country manager for Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific Islands, “We know Australians love their smartphones and that they go through a lot of wear and tear in their lifetime. From parents of toddlers, to tradies and outdoor adventure-lovers, the Nokia XR21 has been built for every day and for everyone.

“We’re so confident, you can take the Nokia XR21 anywhere in Australia where you can capture those special moments, and should the worst happen, we offer a one-year screen replacement guarantee,”

The deliberate design and high-quality materials used throughout the Nokia XR21 – including a super-tough screen and impact-proof back cover – cure people’s phone anxieties from low battery to a cracked screen.

It’s been certified for MIL-STD-810H durability, making it drop-proof, dust-proof and waterproof. In addition, during internal testing, the Nokia XR21 survived being dropped from 1.8m, as well as being submerged in 1.5m of water for up to an hour, and hit with the same pressure as a 1450 PSI jet of water with a water temperature of 80°C heat.

The Nokia XR21’s durability extends to its battery life. It can last two days between charges. Plus, when you’re caught in unpleasant or extreme weather, the Nokia XR21 is up to the task.

It can withstand and be used in temperatures between -20°C to +55°C - the latter is one degree less than the hottest air temperature recorded on Earth, in California’s Death Valley. And the 6.49” screen can be used with wet hands, in the rain, or while wearing gloves. Perfect for lasting through a weekend festival, day-long hike or bike ride, or family trip without a charger.

The Nokia XR21 guarantees four years of monthly security updates, three years of OS upgrades, three years of warranty and a one-year screen replacement guarantee. Protecting you online, as well as your smartphone from what life throws at it.

The new Nokia XR21 will be available in Midnight Black and Pine Green (see the image above) priced from $799 and available at JB-HiFi in mid May, For further information, please visit Nokia or JB-HiFi
