Incredibly Robut phone with an amazing battery life This phone meets all my expectations for a strong, robust, rugged device. I Love the aluminum case, which is a huge improvement over my previous phones’ fragile builds. With the EXPLORER 9, even someone as clumsy as me feels confident that I won’t need to buy a new phone every time it slips out of my hands.Plus, the battery life is amazing! I got the phone last week, charge it to 100% on thursday, and now, on monday, it’s still at 78%. And believe me, I really put it to the test during a camping trip with my son over the week end. This phone is a beast!Last and not least, kudos to the Tesla support! I got an issue to have the phone work with my ATT chip. I contacted the team and they helped me solve the network connection problem in minutes. Great support many other brand should get inspired from!
You can’t be serious An $849 phone with a helio g95…… I’m just so glad anything I see that’s rugged I can always expect it to have garbage specs despite having a near $1,000 price point.. for $849 I can get a brand new Samsung phone with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3.. with performance scores that are over 10 times with this phone could probably do if it was overclocked..There is no excuse for the low end mid-range specs on a phone this expensive… I was sitting here laughing making a joke to myself watch this only be a helio g99… Holy crap it is not even that good… It’s a 95…At best phone is maybe $300.And that’s if it has a headphone jack and expandable storage and an oled screen.
I rarely see a company with customer service this good. My thanks goes to Thibauld, at Tesla Americas, for testing this phone. Even going as far as getting a sim from my provider. While the testing went well ‘at the shop’, it still is unacceptably unreliable in my remote part of the US. I’m told that a new model is in the works and will post another review when it arrives and I have had a chance to test it. Keep up the good work!
Happy w. purchase I bought this robust phone mainly for its dual SIM feature and long-lasting battery, and I’m very happy with it. The dual SIM makes it easy to manage both my work and personal numbers on one device. The battery life is greatâI can go for days without needing to recharge, even with heavy use.The phone is a bit heavy, which can be a little inconvenient, but the benefits far outweigh this small issue. Overall, my experience with this phone has been really good. It’s reliable and works well for my needs.
Great all terrain device We use a couple of them in the tough environment of our warehouse. These rugged phones do the job amazingly. Great reception, great built that seems unbreakable and long long long lasting battery. Thanks to Android 12, we paired them to zebra finger scanners and you have a great integrated scanner for the fraction of the price. And yet, this is a great android phone with crystal clear screen and all the bells and whistles.
Tesla Explr9 is a great undestructible phone for people on the move I have this phone as a secondary phone for a couple of weeks now and I must admit I really like it. Fast, bright screen and rock solid, it looks indestructible and made with high quality materials. I don’t have to worry about dropping my phone anymore when I go for trekking or outdoor sports. This rugged phone is perfect for me since I can use it for to go camping with friends, put my personal and business sim cards in the same device that comes unlocked from factory and its battery goes forever on one charge. It literally do not discharge when in sleep mode it looks like it lasts forever. And the fact it work on Android makes it easy for me! On the other side, you might find it a bit heavy, but that is the result of a strong conception and forever lasting battery. But at least it comes with a huge bright screen that you can still read in direct sunlight. Android updated automatically on me on first use. I suppose this is normal. I saw that I could submerge it if I wanted, I still have not tried. One detail I absolutely love, well two in fact, you can add a memory expansion card and there is a jack to plug your headphones… 2 things competitor have taken away from their phones… And cherry on top, it comes with a charger and a cable… Also something less and less often seen….!

Not TESLA as in Elon Musk.
Tesla U.S. does not make a phone or TVs, so this is some foreign company trading on the name.
