Motorola Tundra VA76r - user opinions and reviews

My fiance recently bought this phone, thinking it would be great for work because of the rugged design. He had the phone for a month and a half, accidentally dropped it (from his ear to a concrete floor) and the phone snapped in HALF. NOT IMPRESSED. For a phone that boasts about its ruggedness, they should be embarassed!! I've had a razor for over a year now, and I've dropped it NUMEROUS times, and not once has it snapped in half. Buy at your own risk. Morotola has also had the phone for over a month now and we still don't know when he'll be getting it back!

Rather phones with external antenna in general provides BETTER reception than phones without the external antenna.
Think about the following cases
- why all walkie-talkies, especially those being used by law enforcement officers, have external antenna?
- why most, if not all, TV's only provide external antenna? (not really aware of any TV with bulit-in antenna)
- why most radios reequires external antenna? (I've Moto EM35 with internal antenna, though to be honest, most of the time I still plug in the earphones as antenna for better reception)
- why airplanes still have external antenna?

Superb Sound quality
For the most part, it's built like a tank.
I like the "old" looks...less likely to be stolen.
It does freeze sometimes when I turn it off...does anybody have a solution other than taking out the battery?

> In reply to vlad @ 2009-03-11 21:47 from 3c4ILike it or not, Moto still makes some of the best flip phones around, unlike the almighty brand, who can't even manage its own so-called top of the line "slim" fliphone, which can break easily after ONLY ONE DROP.
This Tundra was designed to sustain the harsh outdoor environment, and if you do not work outdoor, don't think you can ever appreciate the design of Tundra.
Though just because you personally can't make good use of a Tundra, that doesn't mean nobody else on the planet think / work like you do.

Is the battery meter not working for all users? or just some of you?

I looked at this phone at the AT&T store, it seems like it is very well built when comparing it to all the flimsy free phones. I just wish it was a little more like the Motorola V950 Renegade offered by Sprint, which is a rugged phone but still practical when you take off your Carhartt.
