I have dropped it, submerged it in water, and it still runs. All of the other phones that require a case to become rugged are never rugged. I end up breaking them or they start seeing terrible signs of wear due to the dirty conditions I work in. I need another rugged phone - I see options for other carriers but Verizon seems to be lacking. There are lots of options out there but none seem to be compatible with the Verizon network.

The DuroForce 2 just came out.
