Blackview XPLORE 1 6.78" 120Hz Main & 2.01" Secondary Display 12+256GB/16+512GB 20000mAh 170LM Flashlight 5G AI Rugged Phone

The Blackview XPLORE 1 rugged phone is ideal for camping enthusiasts, outdoor workers, field technicians, and users who need a device that lasts a long time without frequent charging. It is also a great choice for everyday users who want a large-capacity battery combined with outdoor-ready features.

Its massive 20,000mAh battery provides ample power, while the built-in flashlight and night-vision camera offer illumination at night. The rear secondary display also lets you quickly access key information.

The main difference is that the Standard XPLORE 1 features night vision and a secondary rear display. The Thermal Imaging version (XPLORE 1 Pro) adds a thermal camera to observe heat-distribution differences, while the Walkie-Talkie version includes dedicated hardware for two-way radio communication.

For general outdoor use, the Standard version is recommended. If you need to monitor heat distribution during inspections, the Thermal Imaging version is a suitable choice. Alternatively, if you need to communicate with compatible walkie-talkie devices in areas without mobile network coverage, the Walkie-Talkie version is recommended.

Battery life depends on your usage habits. The Blackview XPLORE 1 supports up to 23 hours of video playback, 38 hours of web browsing, or 84 hours of talk time. These figures are based on independent testing and may not reflect actual daily battery life.

Battery consumption varies depending on the activity; for instance, basic tasks like messaging and calling differ significantly from intensive use like navigation or photography. Additionally, factors such as screen brightness, signal strength, and ambient temperature affect battery performance.

The Blackview XPLORE 1 supports wired fast charging up to 55W. It is best to use the charger included in the box. If you choose to use a different charger, ensure that both the charger and the cable support the phone's fast-charging specifications.

A higher wattage rating on a charger does not necessarily guarantee faster charging speeds. For instance, a 65W or 100W charger must also support the specific charging protocol used by the phone. Additionally, charging speed varies based on battery level, temperature, and phone usage; speeds typically slow down as the battery nears full capacity. If you are unsure which replacement charger to buy, please contact customer service for assistance in selecting a compatible product.

Included charging accessories vary by region. Packaging for non-EU regions (such as the US, Canada, and UK versions) includes a power adapter, whereas packaging for EU regions (such as the German, French, Italian, and Spanish versions) does not. If you choose the EU version, you will need to use a compatible charger you already own or purchase one separately.

The charging dock must be purchased separately; it is not included in the package. If you wish to charge your phone on a desk or nightstand, you can purchase a dock compatible with the XPLORE 1. Please check the dock's packaging details to confirm whether a power adapter is included or if one needs to be purchased separately.

If you are accustomed to large phones, the XPLORE 1 fits seamlessly into daily life. The standard version weighs approximately 638g and measures 184 × 83 × 29.5 mm; if your previous phone was a slim, lightweight smartphone, you will notice the added weight.

It is more convenient to carry in a work pouch or crossbody bag than in a trouser pocket, especially during long shifts or extended periods of walking. Additionally, consider whether you need to operate the phone with one hand or hold it for long periods. If you plan to use a car mount, ensure it can securely support the phone's size and weight.

For tasks like web browsing, messaging, using maps, and everyday photography, the 12GB/256GB version is sufficient. However, if you play demanding games or need to store large amounts of video, offline maps, and work files, the 16GB/512GB version is a better choice.

The 16GB version features more physical RAM, offering an advantage when running multiple applications simultaneously. However, not all tasks will see a speed boost. It is important to distinguish between "physical RAM" and "RAM expansion" (the latter uses the phone's storage space as additional memory).

The XPLORE 1 brings several useful outdoor features together in one phone. Its large battery is handy when charging points are few and far between. The flashlight can help you find equipment or check a dim area, while the night vision camera lets you view nearby surroundings after dark.

At work, you can use the phone for maps, calls, photos, and checking information on the go. Glove Mode can also make the screen easier to use with compatible gloves. For trips beyond mobile coverage, download your maps beforehand and plan your power use, particularly if you will be using navigation and lighting for long periods.

Yes. The standard XPLORE 1 rugged phone is equipped with a 20-megapixel night vision camera that uses infrared fill-light technology to clearly view nearby objects in dark environments.

Thermal imaging, on the other hand, is exclusive to the XPLORE 1 Pro. It visualizes heat differences, allowing you to locate components generating abnormal heat or inspect surface temperature distribution. These two camera types serve different purposes: choose night vision for viewing in the dark, or use thermal imaging to analyze heat-related information.

The built-in Doke AI app on the XPLORE 1 assists with answering everyday questions, writing, photo editing, and creating videos or music. You can also use these tools to spark creative inspiration, enhance images, or generate creative content based on prompts. A 30-day free trial of the Doke app is included.

After the trial period ends, some features may require payment or be subject to usage limits. Please check the specific options within each app before selecting a plan. Feature availability may vary by language and region, and some tools require an internet connection or account login to function.

Purchases made through the official Blackview store come with a 12-month repair warranty covering eligible malfunctions. To request warranty service or after-sales support, please contact customer service with your order details and a description of the issue. Including photos or a short video helps the customer service team better understand the problem.

Please contact customer service before returning your phone to confirm warranty eligibility and the return instructions. For approved warranty repairs, you cover the cost of sending the phone in, and the store covers shipping it back to you. Accidental damage, misuse, and other exclusions listed in the warranty policy are not covered by free repair. If you purchased from another seller, contact that seller for its warranty terms.

No. The XPLORE 1 rugged phone features a shared card slot design; you must choose between a "dual SIM" setup or a "single SIM plus microSD card" configuration—it cannot accommodate all three cards simultaneously.

If you need to separate work and personal numbers, the dual SIM configuration is recommended; if you require more storage for photos, videos, or offline maps, the single SIM plus microSD card combination is a better choice. If you wish to maintain dual SIM functionality while having ample internal storage, the 512GB version is an excellent option.

The XPLORE 1 rugged phone supports the reception of positioning signals on both L1 and L5 frequency bands. Dual-frequency signals allow for more precise location tracking outdoors—or while following a route—by mitigating positioning errors caused by signal reflections from nearby buildings or other surfaces.

Actual positioning accuracy remains subject to environmental conditions, satellite visibility, and the specific application being used. Additionally, GPS functionality itself does not provide an internet connection. If you plan to travel to areas with weak or no cellular coverage, it is advisable to download maps in advance and ensure your navigation app supports offline use.

Yes. When taking selfies with the main camera, the rear display provides a live preview. This allows you to see—without having to guess the phone's orientation—whether you, your friends, or your family members are fully within the frame.

You can use the small rear screen to frame your shot while using the main camera, and then view the resulting photo on the main screen. Specific control functions depend on the camera and rear display settings available in the current software version.

Yes. The XPLORE 1 rugged phone features an IR remote control function compatible with various appliances, including certain TVs, air conditioners, and set-top boxes. Simply select the appropriate device configuration within the remote control app and use controls such as power, volume, or temperature adjustment.

To operate it, point the phone's IR transmitter at the appliance, ensuring there are no obstructions between them. Compatibility depends on the specific appliance model and the device configurations available in the app. Devices that rely solely on Bluetooth or Wi-Fi commands cannot be controlled via the phone's IR function.

No, it does not. The XPLORE 1 walkie-talkie utilizes dedicated radio hardware to communicate with other compatible two-way radio devices without relying on mobile network signals or Wi-Fi. This allows you to stay connected while working outdoors or traveling in areas with poor network coverage.

Both devices must use compatible frequencies, modes, and settings. Communication range is influenced by factors such as terrain, buildings, and antenna conditions, so performance may vary depending on the environment. Please follow the setup instructions and relevant regulations regarding radio usage. This feature is available only on the flagship version; the standard version of the XPLORE 1 is not equipped with it.
