ZTE T86 Telstra Tough Max 3 Rugged IP68 Phone 64GB | NEW OPEN BOX
ZTE T86 Telstra Tough Max 3 - Brand New Open Box Ruggedised Smartphone
The ZTE T86 Telstra Tough Max 3 is a brand new open box ruggedised Android smartphone powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 octa-core processor, 4GB RAM, 64GB internal storage (expandable to 256GB), and a 5.65-inch Full HD IPS display (2160×1080), designed specifically for professionals working in demanding field environments where durability and reliability are non-negotiable.
What is Open Box?
This device is brand new and has never been used. Open box means the original packaging has been opened for inspection or display purposes, but the phone itself remains in pristine, unused condition with all original accessories included. You receive a like-new device at a better value than standard retail pricing.
Built for Australia's Toughest Work Environments
This ruggedised smartphone excels in construction sites, mining operations, outdoor fieldwork, emergency services, and industrial settings where standard smartphones simply cannot survive. The IP68 waterproof and dustproof rating ensures complete protection against Australia's harsh conditions, from dusty outback worksites to wet coastal environments. With comprehensive 4G LTE connectivity optimised for Australian networks (Bands 1, 3, 7, 8, 28), VoLTE, VoWiFi, and external RF antenna capability, this phone maintains reliable communication even in remote locations with poor signal coverage.

Android Operating System
Running Android 9 Pie, this device offers extensive app compatibility, Google ecosystem integration, and customisation options ideal for enterprise environments. Android provides greater flexibility for installing third-party business applications and custom software compared to closed systems, though users should note that Android devices may require more frequent security updates. The open nature of Android makes it particularly suitable for organisations requiring specific industry apps or custom enterprise solutions.
