xddd, 02 Nov 2015Hi. mostly I use jeans all day. Does it slip in and out ... moreI never had that problem. I've dropped the phone once fishing it out, but that more of my fault then anything that could be attributed to the phone. Since you wear jeans, you'll have a belt. So buy a clip on case. They're pretty cheap and do alot of preventing accidental fallage. And if you do drop a rugby it's likely it won't be damaged at all. These things are super-tough. I've dropped mine on cement twice and they were okay.

I've had this phone for 4 years. I really should upgrade but this thing is bulletproof. It has survived any and all abuse I could throw at it and still works perfectly. If you need a durable phone that can stand up to the mining industry, find a used one and buy it.

I've had this device 2 years now so it's stood the test of time for me. I work outdoors and I haven't babied this phone at all. It's had lots of knocks and abuse and it's still fully functional. I've had it rooted for about a year, instructions to root this phone can be found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2006388. Overall I'm happy with this phone AFTER it was rooted. The biggest minus against this phone is that it doesn't have enough ram or internal storage memory. However it is durable, it's a nice size for one-handed use and to keep in a shirt pocket, it has decent battery life and it's fast enough (once it's rooted). Another plus is you can add a microsd card for extra storage. To be honest even though my contract has expired on this phone I can't really find anything out there that has the right balance of durability, power, and size that would be a big enough improvement to bother with replacing it.

I love this phone . Had it for 2 years . Not a scratch . The clips on the battery cover have broken off thought after being slammed on tile floors and stepped on . Still use it in the shower and works fine . I had to disable alot of preinstalled apps to speed it up though and I dont have a sd card for it so memory is extremely limited . Im getting the xperia z3 compact next only because they never made an updated version of this phone

I had an HTC One but I messed it up pretty bad and luckily my family plan had insurance. Well I didn't know that insurance wouldn't get me a replacement of my HTC One instead I settled for this piece of junk. First time I got it, it would drop my calls, the 2nd time AT&T send me a 'new'one anyone I'd talk to on the other end could not hear me, and the 3rd time is when I discovered how SLOW it was. When At&T sent me the same phone again I sent the same one back and figured I'd just get out of the contract when it ended. BIGGEST MISTAKE. This phone is a piece of crap. It takes about 1 minute to open any app I tap on. I always say to my friends that if I should ever need to call the police because of a life threatening situation I would probably die before this phone gets to the call screen. Heck, for that matter nothing ever loads. If I text, the screen suddenly goes to the home screen. Or goes back to something I was working on 2 hours ago. But wait, that's not all, the mic magically stops working and works again when it pleases. On top of glitching, it's as though I don't have a smartphone but instead a desktop computer from the 90's in my hand. I've spoken to AT&T about this and each time they send me the same phone. Awful 'help'. Awful piece of a 'phone'.

This phone suited my needs but the charging port went out after about 9 months, Because of a cracked screen, At&t was of no help.Will cost about $139.00 to repair both. Any comments about the charging port ?

I hated it when work first issued it.
Touchwiz absolutely blows, bloatware chokes.
So I rooted it and flashed CM10.1 ROM which upgraded it to Android 4.2.2.
It's workable now, more custom notification choices.
Linked most apps off internal to SD, no bloat at all.
I love this little phone.

I used my name because I don't care who knows just how furious I am. I recently switched to AT&T from Verizon. That's been one of my biggest mistakes I've ever made. I thought I might save some money. When picking a new phone I asked for something comparable to my Droid Mini. Ha, I chose a Samsung Galaxy Rugby. This phone is the biggest piece of crap I have ever owned. As soon as possible I will be returning to Verizon and my Droid Mini. It does things like change screens at one touch, I'm midi a rely changes screens. This Rugby is about to be thrown and wedged into the wall, then I will hang a frame around it to remind me to never ever change again.
