Overview
- Full specifications were published on September 4 and RugOne will open early sales on Kickstarter on September 7 with an early price of €799 and a planned global release in October at about $999.
- The handset uses a MediaTek Dimensity 8400 chipset with 12GB of RAM, a 6.67‑inch 120Hz AMOLED display, up to 512GB storage, ships with Android 16 and carries IP68/IP69K plus MIL‑STD‑810H rugged ratings.
- A cube‑shaped camera module docks magnetically to the rear with a mechanical latch, draws power from the phone’s 9,300mAh battery, and automatically tops up when docked.
- The detachable camera records up to 2.7K at 30fps, stores footage on 64GB built‑in memory, runs about 40 minutes on its own battery, supports wireless preview to the phone at roughly 160 feet, and uses a dedicated imaging SoC for low‑latency control and stabilization.
- Reviewers note the trade‑off between convenience and capture quality because the module stops short of 4K capture used by rivals like DJI and Insta360, so the Kickstarter will show whether integrated workflow and long battery life appeal more to outdoor creators and field professionals than top‑end image specs.
