So for some strange reason the sim card was a different size. It was a easy fix, had to go to ATT and paid the $5 for the new size and they were helpful in transferring the contact info. Other than that it is a new cell phone and the only type that will last in my work condition.

Probably a good phone. Seems solid etc. and worked really nice for 3 or 4 days. After that it either wouldn't charge or the battery is no good. Regardless, with the supplied (and then with another at&t charger) charger, an all night charge wouldn't give 5 minutes of talk time. Dead! I just don't have time to mess with it. Send me another, I'll send it back to you, and update my review with explanation.

Got this Samsung Rugby II to replace my 1-year-old Nokia 6350. The Nokia was a pretty good phone, but the battery fell out of the phone each time the phone got dropped on the floor. The best part about the Rugby is that the battery cover is very secure. I've owned the Samsung Convoy (Verizon) before, so I thought this phone would be similar. It is in some ways. The up side is that the Rugby II is very durable, and it functions reliably. It lets me access my address book while I'm talking on the phone, and it let's me look at my calendar while I'm on the phone as well. However, the calendar isn't very easy to use -- you have to manually tell it you want the event to set an alarm. Plus you have to put an event stop time, which is annoying when you're in a hurry. Texting is tedious because you have to press send 2 times before the text actually begins to send. Also, if you close the phone before sent confirmation, the text may not go through. The camera is very easy to use and takes good quality photos. Also, the SD card is hard to get to because it's underneath the battery -- so you have take the battery out to get your photos off the card.Read full review
My old MotoRAZR cell phone would no longer re-charge, after many years of admirable service. I had changed the battery several times before, but this time the problem was the phone. I tried several different new batteries and chargers, but still got "Unable to Charge" errors. The Samsung Rugby II was a suitable replacement due to its sturdy construction, and hopefully will serve me as long, or longer than my old MotoRAZR. The changeover was a "Snap". I just put my old Cingular SIM into the Samsung Rugby II, and I was immediately back in business, just where I had left off. The Samsung Rugby II arrived in "Undistinguishable from New" condition, with not a scratch nor any wear mark anywhere on it. "No Worries Mate" if you drop it on hunting for the battery or compartment door, as the compartment has a Locking screw ! It even has a metal (read M-E-T-A-L, not some kind of shiny plastic) lanyard attachment, so it can be retrieved from the depths of whatever bag, pack, or bucket you happen to carry your phone in. It works perfectly and the "Push to Talk" button is a great feature to keep up with business when "out in the field".Read full review
I chose this as a replacement for my Nokia 6350 because that phone could not hold onto its battery cover and I was having some problems with the ringer & vibration functions. Also the multimedia buttons on the face of the phone were pretty annoying. What appealed to me about the Rugby is that it's tough. It looks like it will hold up very well. I use talk,text,pictures, and some organization features and if that's all you need, this thing does it great. My only complaints so far are that it's a bit bulkier and heavier than I thought. You'll never forget this thing's in your pocket. It's only a minor thing but I don't like that you need to remove the battery to access your micro-sd storage card. Also, you might have to look around a little bit to find a USB cable that fits this port. Since mine didn't come with a usb cable (only a wall charger), I've been using ones from other phones that have the right plug but because of the length and shape of them, they don't want to stay plugged into the phone for PC-connection. If it lasts as long as it looks like it should, I will be very happy. I've had good luck with basic Samsung phones.Read full review
