Upgrading My Cell phones!! Empty Upgrading My Cell phones!!

Post by DogManDan Thu Dec 06, 2012 6:48 pm

So I am upgrading my cell phones again. Yes I mean that as plural, since I am upgrading mine and the wifey at the same time.

Putting my Motorola Atrix: http://www.motorola.com/us/consumers/Motorola-ATRIX-4G/72112,en_US,pd.html back in the box for storage/possibly sell it and just finished the purchase of 2 Samsung Galaxy Rugby Pro phones http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SGH-I547ZKAATT
or
http://www.att.com/shop/wireless/devices/samsung/galaxy-rugby-pro-black.html#fbid=cdNGxfL-IoO


Sure I could have went quad core, fancy big 5" screens and all that, but I prefer to have a phone that can handle pretty much anything you can/nature can throw at it. *Meets US Mil-STD 810F for Dust, Humidity, Rain, and Shock. Waterproof against incidental exposure to water when all ports are tightly closed. NOT designed or intended for in water use. Submersible up to 1 meter for up to 30 minutes. Waterproof based on IP67 rating.

Also goes well with my the discount I get for service from my companies affiliation program. 25% off all service talk/data Smile Also decided its time to drop the traditional landline phone service. Wifey is not to thrilled, but its time!




My other choice was the LG Optimus G vs. Samsung Galaxy SIII, but I am more than happy with the decision I made. Check out some videos on youtube some guy actually puts the phone in his pool while watching a movie and playing music. ANother guy uses it as a hockey puck until he has a professional try slapsticking it, which went right into the goal post (OUCH)!.

Glad you upgraded to fit your needs. Mine is decent in performance, not the highest out. I run dual core and a gig of ram, well good enough for me.

If you feel the need for protection, I suggest Otterbox (otterbox.com). It isn't cheap, but it's well worth the price. I use the Commuter case for my Evo 4G LTE and I feel safe with it. And it's thin (unless you get the Defender), so it will fit well in your pocket.

[sarcasm]As far as landlines go, what is that?[/sarcasm]

Well I did not want to get an otterbox because thee Defender is just to bulky for me and the commuter is not really my style. I did not see the need for a quad core phone and all that jazz. The apps/games I will put on it run just fine and it is thing with solid protection. Slight bump up in processors though.

I'll be out kicking your butt in NFS MW in no time again Smile

The 4G is 2 1/2yrs old and I do like it, but since I get a extremely large discount on upgrades I wanted to get something a bit better. I will only really be giving up my fingerprint sensor protection.

this would never happen. I don't like Apple or there products at all. I have nothing related to Apple anywhere on my PC either. I use alternate programs instead of things like quicktime and such.

Google needs to integrate an app that lets you unlock your phone via your fingerprint using your camera lens.

It would be awesome to be able to place your finger on your front camera lens and it read your fingerprint to unlock your phone. Google has already integrated face unlock.
