Abstract: When I first came in contact with the Samsung Rugby, I have to admit that I was pretty well impressed by what I saw. This may well have been one of the most robust cell phones I’d ever come in contact with. It honestly would not have surprised me ov...
Abstract: Video Review: The Samsung Rugby occupies a prime spot in AT&Ts Push-to-Talk lineup. Unlike every other major PTT provider (Sprint, of course, and also Verizon Wireless), AT&T has focused primarily on smartphones for walkie-talkie use, including the...

The Samsung Rugby SGH-A837 has a durable, easy-to-use design with an excellent feature set that includes 3G support, push-to-talk, and GPS. Photo quality is excellent.

Tough and Rugged, well made, Large easy to use keypad, Calls are clear
picture and video quality, AT&T Bloatware junk installed, Navigation could be better
So the Rugby isn’t the greatest phone for taking pictures or videos, but that’s not really the point of this phone is it? It’s made to be a tough phone for those with an active lifestyle and/or a job that requires you to get down and dir...
