If you thought the HONOR Robot Phone or GlocalMe’s PetPhone topped the weirdness chart at MWC Barcelona 2026, think again. The Oukitel WP63 might literally start a fire, and that’s the point. The built-in lighter isn’t just a gimmick; it’s central to the WP63’s identity as a phone built for the outdoors. Picture camping trips or emergency situations when you need fire but forgot your matches.
In my Oukitel WP63 preview, you’ll see a phone that isn’t for selfies or sleek offices. It thrives where matches fail and batteries die. Camping trips or emergencies suddenly feel safer when fire, light, and a loud alarm ride in your pocket. This phone is built for the outdoors, combining survival tools into a single rugged device ready for the wild.
Design and display
Most smartphones today chase thinness, but thick devices have their own charm. When a phone ignores weight and squeezes in as much as possible, it can turn into a beast. The Oukitel WP63 hits 27 mm (1.06 inches), roughly the same as stacking three iPhone 17 Pro Maxes.
I couldn’t track down its exact weight, but judging by photos, it looks like a serious chunk of hardware.
Up front, it packs a 6.7-inch display with a 120 Hz refresh rate, though it runs at only 720p. From experience, staring at 720p can make my eyes feel off and sometimes hurt. I can’t tell much difference between 1080p and 1440p, but 720p usually crosses a line for me. Still, for an emergency phone, this compromise makes sense.
Performance
Here’s the feature I envy future owners: the battery life. A 20,000 mAh cell powers this phone, giving it insane stamina or turning it into a serious power bank. For comparison, most US smartphones run between 4,000 and 5,000 mAh. The built-in USB-C cable can pump up other devices at 18 W.
You also get a loudspeaker that blasts a giant alarm. Oukitel aims to make the phone a survival tool with fire, light, and a distress signal all in one.
