This phone, lives up to it's ruggedness I have dropped this phone, sat on it, talked on it while in the shower and it completely held up! The gorilla glass makes for a durable device. The phones shape and design made it quite desirable if your as hard on phones as I am (7.9 out of 10) have to be tough to be a companion to this diva! As far as the system on the phone goes I'm going to say it was quite buggy as well as laggy. The phone would shut off by it's self not receive calls, freeze, and the call clarity and signal strength... Fugheddaboutit! The interface however was awesome, it was completely customizable and easy to learn. The pictures this phone took were nothing less than incredible, however it did not have a camera button so photographing yourself was nearly a task in it's self. The phone costed a arm and a leg off contract but was reasonable on contract. Luckily for me it was a gift so that wasn't a concern of mine. But other than that the phone gets a 3.5 on a 5 point scale.
