About the popularity of Land Rover, or more precisely the automaker’s robust Defender off-roader it is superfluous to speak. But now, the British automaker unveiled an updated version of its Explore smartphone, cleverly named the Explore R. This new gadget is designed for lovers of the great outdoors and built to endure the most challenging environments.
Jon Sinclair, the business’ Director of Branded Goods and Licensing says “the Explore R perfectly reflects the new Land Rover Defender.” What’s that mean? The phone puts durability and functionality at its forefront and it looks like this:
