Designed with adventurers, kid-juggling parents, and businesses in mind, DuraSport 5G Android smartphone delivers MIL-STD-810H toughness, 5G speeds, 48MP, 16MP & 8MP cameras, “all-day” battery and up to 1TB storage in a sleek package
A global leader in rugged devices, Kyocera launched its rugged MIL-STD-810H 5G Android device in a sleek, slim form factor: DuraSport 5G on the Verizon 5G Ultra Wideband (UW) network. Incorporating more than a decade of rugged device research and development, it’s engineered to withstand drops, dirt, water immersion and the elements. Then, it can be washed and sanitized to eliminate grit and grime for even more adventures. DuraSport 5G is available now for $579.99.
“While we enhanced the features that appeal to our business customers, we have also added ANT+ technology, ample storage, and camera/video features to maximize today’s active lifestyles. We hope to see DuraSport used from the mountains to lakes and everywhere in between.”
Tough enough for trail riding, light enough for rock climbing
Whether you’re planning an all-day trail ride or off for a day of bouldering, DuraSport 5G was designed for the active lifestyle. Kyocera’s second 5G rugged device for the Verizon 5G UW Network, DuraSport’s durable, lightweight design (6.5 ounces/185 grams) is ideal, not only for use on the job, but also for outdoor adventures or the daily adventure of parenting. Sporting an expansive 6.1-inch Gorilla® Glass 6 scratch-resistant display, DuraSport is waterproof to a depth of 6.5 feet for up to 30 minutes (IPX5/IPX8*), dustproof (IP6X*), and MIL-STD-810H tested to withstand drops of up to 5 feet onto concrete, while handling extreme temperatures, salt fog, solar radiation, shock, vibration and more – making it tough enough for work or play. Featuring a 4500mAh lithium polymer battery, DuraSport will carry you through a full day of wakesurfing on the lake or working in the elements without worrying about running out of power1. A programmable key on the side of DuraSport allows customization to fit your needs – whether it’s instant access to a frequently-used app, one-touch connection to Google Assistant or hundreds of contacts through PTT** (Push-To-Talk). You can play music, ask for a translation, check in with the office, or instantly access your favorite apps, all with the press of a button.

Track your fitness & adventures
DuraSport 5G has fitness tracking built in with ANT+ support. Simply download and pair compatible apps and devices, such as heart rate monitors (HRM), power meters, and cadence sensors to replace stand-alone fitness trackers. You’ll capture detailed real-time performance directly on your smartphone, including speed, distance traveled, heart rate and more. With a touchscreen designed to work when wet or while wearing gloves, this device keeps working through even the sweatiest workout sessions.
Mount DuraSport 5G on your bike and launch Bike Mode with the ANT+ technology to display data such as heart rate, cadence, and power for an even more detailed picture of your adventures. The screen locks when recording to prevent accidental touches and disruptions.
You call the shots — more pixels, storage
With DuraSport, you can immerse yourself in vibrant, true-to-life colors even after dark. Check out detailed action photos on the trail, follow tutorials on the job, or stream your favorite movies and shows. Dual rear cameras (48MP standard + 16MP ultra-wide angle) feature Night Mode for crisp images in dynamic lighting conditions, ultra-wide angle to capture landscape views, and underwater recording to capture all the action.
Multi-camera mode enables both the front and rear camera to capture video and photos simultaneously to fully record your adrenaline-fueled adventures and your reaction to your kids’ craziest moments for social media or family sharing. This simultaneous use of front and rear cameras for picture-in-picture content also streamlines hands-on tutorials, turning DuraSport into a multimedia training tool, or a powerful companion for bloggers on-the-go. Capture underwater pics and videos with Underwater Camera Mode – bring it with you for jet-skiing or river rafting to catch the action above the water. Kyocera’s patented Action Overlay adds elapsed time, distance, speed, G-force, altitude, date/time, and map of route traveled to photos and videos.
The Video Bites feature helps even the most novice videographers put together short action videos quickly and easily on the fly — adjust video size, frame rate, and add filters directly on the device. By simply using the record/pause button or programmable key, you can create a movie in multiple parts and message or post it using 5G’s blazing fast speeds. Beauty Mode enables users to ‘airbrush’ selfies and enhance features by smoothing and adjusting skin tone and face shape, brightening eyes, and applying other custom filters. Pro Mode helps more experienced photographers and videographers manually control shutter speed, ISO, exposure value and white balance and use a higher frame option (1080@60fps) to play back the action in slow motion. You can also increase your storage up to 1TB with an optional microSDXC card to ensure you have room for high-resolution images and video.
“DuraSport 5G packs in a lot of value — our industry-leading rugged reliability plus 5G performance in a sleek, lightweight device appeals to businesses and adventurers who know the Kyocera brand, as well as busy parents and other consumers who need durability in a slim package,” said Vipul Dalal, Divisional Vice President at Kyocera’s Communications Equipment Group. “While we enhanced the features that appeal to our business customers, we have also added ANT+ technology, ample storage, and camera/video features to maximize today’s active lifestyles. We hope to see DuraSport used from the mountains to lakes and everywhere in between.”
