- BlackView Xplore 2 480p projection resolution risks depends image quality
- The 20,000 mAh battery promises resistance, but adds a significant weight of the device
- Outdoor device with a 467LM camp light, infrared control, survives a drop of six meters and is boiling water resistant
Several resistant smartphones have arrived in 2025 with built -in projectors, including the Oukitel WP100 Titan, Doogee V Max Play, 8849 Tank 4, Ulefone Armor 34 Pro and the Rugged BlackView Active 12 Pro Rugged tablet.
The new BlackView Xplore 2 5G projector joins this growth list, reinforcing the idea that smartphone projectors are no longer isolated experiments.
However, the employer raises questions about the use of real world and long -term value, especially because these devices are still greatly addressed to outdoor or industrial niche users instead of conventional consumers.
Screening performance and screen specifications
According to the reports, the Xplore 2 offers “an ultra clear projection of up to 100 inches” to “100 lumens of high brightness”, with automatic vertical key correction and a 2-watt smart-k box speaker.
The resolution of 480p and the brightness of 100 lumens suggest that the image quality will probably be delayed behind that of the dedicated entry level projectors.
Claims such as “300% softer projection” in “up to 120 pictures per second” indicate an effort to deliver fluid images, but without independent verification, these specifications remain not proven.
The phone has a 6.73 inches AMOLED screen with a “maximum brightness leader in the 2600 nits” and adaptive update rates.
It is fed by the 8300 dimensity chipset with an LPDDR5X RAM up to 16 GB (32 GB expandable) and up to 1 TB of UFS4.0 storage with expansion of 2 TB.
Under the hood, there is a 20,000 mAh double cell battery, marketed as the largest resistant phone battery.
This battery offers 75 days of ultra long waiting and 13 hours of projection without stopping, along with the load of 120 watts.
The practical benefits of this capacity can be compensated by the heavy weight of 710 grams of the device and the thickness of 29 millimeters, more in line with a resistant tablet.
BlackView Xplore 2 has IP68, IP69K and Mil-STD-810H certifications, with fall resistance of up to six meters, and the company says that this device can survive a load of 500 kilograms or boiling water of 80 ° C.
These specifications are directed to extreme conditions, such as camping, construction or rescue work, and are designed for outdoor use with a 467 lumens camp light, an infrared remote control, double waterproof ports and double rain test.
The extensive list of features of the XPLore 2, which includes AI tools, voice footprint activation and support of ESIM, suggests an impulse to position resistant projector phones such as versatile flagships.
However, the combination of low resolution and volume projection can limit the attractiveness of the device beyond enthusiasts or field professionals.
Although currently exhausted, the phone appears on the BlackView website for around $ 634.
