OUKITEL RT61 Series

There’s a phone at MWC 2026 that can start an actual fire. OUKITEL’s WP63 hides an electric igniter behind a tiny trap door on the top of the phone, and that’s only one of five products the rugged device maker brought to Barcelona last week. The full lineup spans phones, a tablet, a laptop, and a portable power station. They’re all built around the same idea: pack so many tools into each device that you can leave the extras at home.

The theme across every product is self-sufficiency. Every device in the collection carries an oversized battery, built-in utilities that normally require separate gear, and enough durability certifications to survive a construction site or a week in the backcountry. It’s a big swing for a brand that’s been quietly building momentum in the rugged phone space.

The WP63 and its built-in fire starter

The WP63 is the attention-grabber, and OUKITEL knows it. Pop open the trap door on the top of the phone, marked with a fire symbol, and you’ll find a tiny heating coil that works like a car cigarette lighter. PCMag’s Eric Zeman called it an “absolute unit” after handling it on the show floor, and the thickness backs that up. This isn’t a phone for slim pockets. It’s built for people who camp, hike, or work in places where a reliable ignition source matters more than a sleek profile.

The specs lean utilitarian. A Unisoc T8200 processor pairs with a 6.7-inch 720p display running at 120Hz, and the 20,000mAh battery supports 18W reverse charging so it doubles as a power bank. OUKITEL also packed in a camping light and an emergency loudspeaker, continuing the pattern of folding standalone gear into phone features.

WP61 Series: satellite, thermal imaging, and walkie-talkie in one

The WP61 is OUKITEL’s flagship entry, stacking features that usually require three separate devices into a single handset. Two-way satellite communication through NTN keeps it connected in areas without cell coverage. A 256×192 thermal imaging sensor handles heat leak detection, maintenance checks, and security inspections. And a built-in DMR walkie-talkie adds group communication for teams working off-grid.

Hardware puts it in capable territory: MediaTek Dimensity 7025, 12GB of RAM, 512GB of storage, a 108MP main camera, and a 6.7-inch 120Hz display running Android 16. The 20,000mAh battery charges at 45W with reverse charging support, and OUKITEL threw in a 1,200-lumen flashlight alongside a 130-decibel speaker loud enough to double as a safety alarm.

RG14-P: a rugged laptop with solar charging built in

The RG14-P goes in a completely different direction. OUKITEL calls it the world’s first rugged industrial laptop with integrated solar charging, and while “world’s first” claims always warrant a raised eyebrow, the concept fills a genuine gap. The 14.1-inch Windows 11 touchscreen carries a 3,000mAh main battery plus a 5,200mAh backup, charging at 65W when an outlet is available.

OUKITEL RG14-PWhen one isn’t, the integrated solar panel keeps things running for field technicians, researchers, and anyone whose work takes them away from reliable power. A variant called the RG14-L adds a built-in camping light for low-light use, which suggests OUKITEL considers outdoor recreation an equally large market.

RT10 Series: the tablet that does everything

The RT10 leans into industrial utility without apology. A fingerprint capture module and 2D barcode scanner make it a natural fit for warehouse logistics and security checkpoints, while the 25,000mAh battery, the largest in OUKITEL’s entire MWC lineup, supports reverse charging for powering other devices during marathon shifts.

Then it gets interesting. The RT10 features dual 5W speakers hitting 130 decibels and a camping light, and the Pro variant adds a built-in projector. Picture a site supervisor scanning inventory at dawn, briefing the crew with projected slides at noon, and still sitting at 40% battery by midnight.

P5000 Pro: the power behind the ecosystem

The P5000 Pro rounds things out as OUKITEL’s portable power station play. At 5,120Wh capacity with 3,600W AC output, it lands in the upper tier of the category. LiFePO4 cells give it a rated 5,000-cycle lifespan stretching roughly 10 years, and 1,800W AC input pushes it to 80% in about 90 minutes.

OUKITEL P5000 Pro Portable Power Station

Portable power has gotten crowded, with EcoFlow, Bluetti, and Jackery all fighting for the same customers, but OUKITEL’s angle is ecosystem integration: the P5000 Pro as the basecamp source for all those battery-hungry rugged devices.

Five products at one MWC booth tells you where OUKITEL’s heading. The company isn’t content being another rugged phone maker, and this lineup stretches the definition of what an OUKITEL rugged phone can actually do. From fire starters to solar laptops to a power station tying the whole ecosystem together, the ambition at is hard to miss.
