Mobile phone 2E R240 2025 2.4" 2SIM, 2500mAh, Black

Durable Design and Reliability

In the world of modern smartphones, push-button phones, which combine classic design and reliability, remain essential for those seeking simplicity and longevity. The new rugged 2E R240 GUARD phone from the 2025 lineup, equipped with an extended battery, blends bold styling with advanced functionality. Its 2.4-inch color display with a 320 × 240 resolution ensures comfortable use, with enlarged fonts and main menu icons for better readability. The classic black matte body is accented with orange highlights on the SOS button, side flashlight slider and central navigation key. Large backlit buttons allow users to dial numbers or navigate the menu even in the dark. At just 13 mm thick, the phone fits comfortably in the hand, and the built-in strap hole adds convenience when carrying it.

IP68 Housing Protection Class

The 2E R240 GUARD mobile phone features an IP68-rated body, ensuring complete protection against dust and the ability to withstand prolonged submersion in water.

IP68 is the highest level of dust and water resistance achievable for consumer electronic devices. IP (Ingress Protection) ratings define protection against external elements. 6 means full protection from dust, and 8 the ability to withstand submersion in water up to 1.5 meters deep for up to 30 minutes without damage.

This makes the phone ideal for challenging environments where moisture or dirt would be problematic for regular devices.

Intuitive Interface and Easy Navigation

The user-friendly and intuitive 2E UI v2.1 with a dark theme makes managing the phone’s features easy. The menu is designed according to W3C accessibility standards for non-touchscreen devices, ensuring smooth navigation and effortless settings adjustment. The large, high-contrast menu font (20 pixels / 5.2 mm) is clear and readable, while the dialer font size is 30 pixels (8 mm). The Main Menu offers two display modes: a 12-icon grid or a customizable text list that can be shortened or expanded as needed. The central joystick key can be programmed for quick access to four functions or apps, while the bottom keys (*, 0, #) activate the voice recorder, FM radio or sound profile switch when long-pressed.

Solid Functionality

With support for two SIM cards (GSM 900/1800), users can store different contacts and make calls from two numbers. The phone features a microSD slot (up to 16 GB) for storing personal ringtones, contacts, music and other important files. It also includes a bright flashlight activated via a side switch on the left panel. The phonebook holds up to 500 contacts, each of which can have a personal ringtone (chosen from six built-in melodies or stored on the microSD card). Users can also assign a photo to each contact, which will appear on the large screen during incoming calls. Contacts can be imported from a VCF file on the memory card or transferred from another phone via Bluetooth. Speed dial (keys 2–9) and black/white list features ensure easy access to favorite contacts and protection from unwanted calls.

The key provides quick access to the Voice Recorder app, so conversations or ideas can be recorded instantly. Audio files are saved to the microSD card and automatically named with the date and time, making it easy to find specific recordings later.

The phone also includes a built-in FM radio receiver that works without internet or external antennas. However, wired headphones can be used to improve signal reception. The audio player allows playlist creation and playback through the speaker, wired or wireless headphones.

Additional helpful tools include a calendar with event planner, stopwatch, timer, alarm with voice reminders and the classic Snake game to liven up the leisure time.

SUBTITLE: SOS Button

When the orange SOS button on the back panel is pressed and held, the phone automatically calls up to five preset numbers and sends an SMS with the device’s LBS coordinates. Based on the location data provided by the mobile operator, the phone’s position can be quickly identified on an online map via publicly available resources—adding an extra layer of safety in emergency situations. The accuracy of the location may vary from 100 meters to several kilometers, depending on how detailed the landmarks are in the operator’s LBS mapping system.

Long Battery Life and Convenient Charging

The 2E R240 GUARD offers extended battery life and convenient charging via a Type-C port, making the charging process faster and easier. This modern connector is a clear advantage compared to most other feature phones. Its 2,500 mAh battery provides up to 24 days of standby time and up to 7 days of moderate usage for calls and texts. Enabling the power-saving mode can extend battery life by an additional 15%.

To whom it will be useful

This phone is ideal for people with active lifestyles—hikers, athletes, travelers and cyclists. It can handle splashes, rain or dust during outdoor adventures.

For those working in construction or other outdoor jobs exposed to dirt, dust and moisture, the 2E R240 GUARD with IP68 protection is a dependable choice. It withstands harsh conditions without the risk of damage.

Farmers, foresters, hunters and fishers who regularly deal with wet or muddy environments will appreciate the ruggedness of an IP68-rated device.
