NEW YORK, Oct. 20, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Verizon started accepting orders today for the Samsung Galaxy XCover6 Pro, an enterprise-ready 5G smartphone built to support the most demanding business use cases - whether employees are in the office or in the field.
Businesses and organizations get it on the network America relies on with these amazing offers:
- $250 off with a new line of service or when upgrading an existing line1. This means the Galaxy XCover6 Pro is available for $49.99 for Global Enterprise, Public Sector2 and Business Market customers.
- $240 discount applied as a recurring BIC over device payment term which means Global Enterprise and Business Market customers can get the device for $10 per month with a new line of service or when upgrading an existing line.3
Verizon customers who purchase the Samsung Galaxy XCover6 Pro will have access to BlueJeans, and Verizon Mobile Device Management apps pre-installed4. The Samsung Galaxy XCover6 Pro supports Verizon One Talk Enhanced Dialer and Mission Critical Push to Talk (MCPTT)5.
Powerful Performance for High Productivity
The Galaxy XCover6 Pro is a breakthrough in rugged performance and is powered by an enhanced 6nm Octa-Core advanced processor to deliver supercharged speeds to help employees get more done. An optional microSD card,5 offers up to 1TB of expandable storage, so workers can keep important files locally on the Galaxy XCover6 Pro.
Work can happen in the office or remotely, and the Galaxy XCover6 Pro is the first device in the XCover series to support 5G6, offering Verizon customers the benefits of America’s Most Reliable 5G Network.7
With the Galaxy XCover6 Pro, users can conveniently extend the battery life of their device because its long-lasting, replaceable battery8 is easily swapped with a fresh one when it runs out. And thanks to convenient POGO charging9 capabilities, multiple users can dock their device and quickly power up and maintain productivity.
For workers who split their time between the office and working remotely, the Galaxy XCover6 Pro has Samsung DeX.10 This enables users to connect11 their device to an external display, keyboard and 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.
Strong and Streamlined for Challenging Work Environments
The Galaxy XCover6 Pro is designed to endure extreme working conditions, making it the perfect partner for any business, government, or organization’s function — whether it’s in the hands of delivery drivers, sales associates or police officers. With a durable MIL-STD-810H12 certified design, IP68 rating13 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 or workers are using their device outside in the rain, Touch Sensitivity14 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.
While the Galaxy XCover6 Pro is among the most durable smartphones available, 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 display15 with a super-smooth 120Hz refresh rate.16
Tailored for Today’s Mobile Business Needs
The Galaxy XCover6 Pro includes 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 strong protection against ongoing threats facing the mobile workforce.
Samsung’s One UI17 also 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 while biometric support of facial recognition and fingerprint help protect the user, device and business.
The Galaxy XCover6 Pro can be tailored to fit any business or organization. It includes two programmable keys that can be customized to perform specific functions18. Users can also use the device as an enterprise-grade barcode scanner through Knox Capture19 or as a walkie-talkie through its push-to-talk,20 which now comes with a louder-than-ever speaker volume.21
