If you're looking for a rough and tumble, easy to read, easy to hear, reasonably intuitive cell phone, this phone is for you. I was almost scared off after reading many of these reviews, but I'm glad I took the chance. I've owned this phone for over 3 mths now, and am completely satisfied. At 55, I appreciate the customizable features. I easily created a large legible display, selected a fairly loud and distinctive keypad sound, and moved the features I use most to the 4 position rocker switch, and customized the "shortcuts" menu to carry only the features I use. My previous phone was a Samsung, so the phone seems fairly intuitive to me. Because of the large external speaker, "hands free" use while driving is easy. The graphics are a quantum leap ahead of my previous phones, and besides their great functionality, are visually appealing. The phone is fairly large by todays standards, which I like. It feels good in your hand, and the key pads are large and easy to use. Battery life is long. I use my phone primarily for texting, and going a week between charges is not uncommon. Regular voice call use will shorten that to about half. Its operation has been glitch free so far. I bought the phone for it's ruggedness. I tend to break phones and so appreciated the tough outer shell, beefy hinge, and having the keys and display safely inside. The access panel for the battery and flash card has an o-ring seal and a tough, metal, coin twist latch that keeps the cover on and the battery in place. This phone goes on remote mtnbike rides and gets thrown in a sweaty jersey pocket with tools and keys and such, where it's likely to get roughed up a bit in a tumble, and I have complete confidence that it will provide communication for me when I need it.

I'm one of those guy's for some unknown reason seem's to destroy eyeglass's and cellphone's I recently received my second rugby and although it's looks are very similar it's clarity and functionality has only improved. My first rugby survived at least 300 drop's because I would put the phone between my legs whenever I would drive, but would also forget about it so as I was getting out of the car it would fall to the ground. So beside it's other unbelievable hardships it endured with a broken front display window it was finally time to get a new one,I highly recommend it. rugby to anyone looking for a durable handsome functional phone.

Has lasted two years of rugged service. Software not the fastest at the time when new; but phone has stood two years of blue jean back pocket carrying and still works. I weld and grind metal and speakers have lost their volume some from metal dust. Numerous motorcycle trips in the rain and never a missed call. No need to baby this thing! All electronic devices should meet this level of performance!

Samsung - you did your homework on this phone. Easy to learn features; phone is rugged and durable, easy to program features; speaker phone is outstanding - plenty of voume; clarity and reception is excellent; keys are large and back lit. Wish the "Push to Talk" button could be turned on/off but other than that I really like this phone! I've only had the phone for a few days and already love it. So far, I think this is one of the best cell phones I've owned.

This is my second Rugby. I am not gentle with a cell phone and I tried the iphone and Samsung Evergreen. The iphone kept loosing internet connection to our home wifi and the touch screen was frustrating for me. I thought I might break it if I carried it around in my back pocket, and I didn't want it hanging on a belt holster. The Evergreen has small buttons for my large hands and was difficult for texting. I am glad I chose the Rugby 2. Also, I might add I have been very pleased with the quality and reliability of Samsung products.

I like the ruggedness of the phone. It is user friendly. Only one complaint. I do not use PPT and when I take it out of my case the PPT button is in a place where I almost always grab the phone so a screen comes up asking if I want to use PTT. I wish I could delete that feature or at least disable that button so that screen wouldn't come up.

Our home burned earlier this year and I did not have time to look for my Samsung Rugby II which was left on the kitchen counter. When the smoke had cleared and we were searching through the rubble, I came across my phone which was in a case and melted to the counter. I took a knife and cut the case away from my phone. There was no way I thought it would actually work, but to my utter amazement, it did! I am still using this phone! It is melted all around the edges, but is still operational. My wife bought this phone as a Christmas gift for me last year after reading the reviews. She was skeptical but I needed a phone. We are both believers now! Samsung Rugby II is a definite winner!

SGH-A847 Rugby II phone will not connect to any PC

Reviewed in the USA on 2011-11-02T17:00:00

All Windows based computers will label the Samsung New PC Studio as 'a dangerous software that will harm your computer'. This is not true, of course, but it means that Samsung hasn't obtained certification from Microsoft for Samsung's softwares. I have two computers, one with Windows 7 64 bit, the other with Windows Vista 32 bit. When you connect the phone via USB the computers will try to find the Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM drivers in "Windows Update", but the drivers are not there. Therefore, the Samsung New PC Studio will not be able to detect the phone and the 'massive storage' feature on the phone can not be used. Samsung must resolve this connectivity issue with this phone as soon as possible. Please.
