The latest rugged flagship from Blackview, the BV9700 Pro, is a multifunctional rugged smartphone with features distinguishing it from a standard phone like the iPhone, Huawei phones, and Samsung phones. That’s because it offers three new features that solidify it as a must-have tool for anyone working outside, people paranoid about air quality, heart rate detection, and night shooting. Some of these features are already found in smart wearables that help people manage medical conditions like diabetes and heart disease. And it costs as much as a good smartwatch costs without a smartphone!
As an air monitoring device, it can measure three categories of pollutants and particulate matter, specifically Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) and carbon dioxide, include a large range of chemicals and substances. The sensor can work without you opening an app as it runs in the background and can alert you when there’s something wrong. This is more serious than it sounds as something can happen to you when painting something and there’s bad ventilation. Or if you’re painting a room in your house and you see the air quality level has spiked to unhealthy, it might be time to open some windows.
As for the built-in heart rate monitor, it obtains the user’s heart rate data by detecting the number of pulses per minute of the blood vessels on the user’s finger regardless if you are walking, training, playing basketball, or at a yoga class. Detecting and analyzing your heart rate blood oxygen before, during and after exercise can understand the exercise intensity and effort, and facilitate the user to adjust to their own exercise conditions, makes tracking your health and fitness goals a lot easier. The built-in pedometer also helps track your steps and calories burned.
BV9700 Pro is -via the external camera module, a perfect Night Vision camera that is equipped with Sony IMX291 ultra-light sensitive CMOS sensor, that not only captures images under low light conditions but gives you true night vision capability in greyscale monochrome or in color. The individual pixel size is up to 2.9μm, 2.6 times the phone’s main camera sensor. With the increase of pixels size, more light enters individual pixels. Add to that the ultra wide-angle 6P lens with a big aperture and your phone instantly turns into a night-vision camera, easily capturing wonderful moments in the dark.
Of course, the Blackview BV9700 Pro is still a rugged phone with extra durability and waterproofing and is suitable for blue-collar workers, travelers, and anyone who’s a tad clumsy. It comes with a reinforced aluminum frame, IP68/IP69K and MIL-STD-810G certifications, Gorilla Glass, and rubber flaps covering everything and making it as armored as a tank.
