Oukitel reached out to me and asked if I was willing to take a look at its WP500 Ultra rugged phone, which became available for shipping on June 29. The last time I tested a rugged phone from Oukitel was back in 2024 with the WP35, more recently I reviewed the RT10 rugged tablet back in January.

Well, I was excited to get the opportunity to put it through its paces, so let's see how it holds up.

But first, a disclaimer: Oukitel provided this sample without any editorial input or review pre-approval. Now some specifications:
