Hello,

I would like to get a new phone, but there are some requirements.

  • less than a 5.5 inch screen
  • good for working in the building industry
  • dust and water proof resistance of any type
  • $350NZ budget

any idea of what to get?
 
I didn’t see any new IP 68 rated android phones that small. Really the cheap ones are garbage anyways.

Get a used iPhone SE 2020 and put it in Lifeproof case. That’ll meet all your requirements. It’ll be better than whatever off brand android phone you find for that price, new.
