Samsung reveals the Rugby Smart Android strongphone for AT&T; coming March 4th
For some people, it’s not just the megapixel count or the display real estate that counts when choosing a phone – things like endurance and durability play a crucial role too. Samsung (and AT&T) seems to be targeting this demographic with the new Rugby Smart handset that they plan to release this March. Let’s get the usual bells and whistles out of the way first before heading to the more interesting features this device has to offer – the Rugby Smart will come with:
- 3.7-inch WVGA Super AMOLED display
- Android 2.3 Operating System
- 4GB internal memory that can be increased to 32GB via microSD
- 5MP rear-facing camera with flash and autofocus with 720p HD video capture (1.3 MP front facing)
- HSPA+ network support, WiFi, aGPS and Bluetooth connectivity
- 1650 mAh Battery
Besides what you read above, this strongphone is military spec 810f compliant – this means that the device can survive extreme temperatures unscathed, take a swim in waters of up to a meter for 30 minutes and repel dust and other natural factors. All this sounds like qualities that every smartphone should have but don’t currently, still we have our hopes for the future in this regard.
You can snag this sturdy device for $99.99 on AT&T starting March 4th.
