Samsung Rugby Smart Review

(SGH-I847) Score: 59.4 / 100

Samsung Rugby Smart is a mid-end Android cellphone released in 2012, packed with a fast processor ticking at 1.4 GHz, a medium 3.7 inches touch-screen, and 2 cameras, a 5 MP back side camera and a 1.3 mega-pixels front-facing camera.

Samsung decided to build this phone using a fast processing unit ticking at 1.4 GHz with 512 MB RAM. The Samsung Rugby Smart comes with a 4 GB internal storage memory, a common quantity that should be enough for the vast majority of users knowing that it also has an external memory card slot to store songs, photos and videos and even some apps and games that can be installed in the external memory.

Samsung has made an excellent optimization job making this cellphone weight only 4.2 ounces.

This phone has a good level 3.7 inches screen with a 800 x 480 resolution, which makes everything look very good. Its screen uses Super AMOLED capacitive technology, and is multi-touch enabled.

This cellphone has two cameras, a 5 mega-pixels back side camera and a 1.3 megapixels front side camera. This device can also shoot videos in HD 1280x720 at 30 fps. To complete the camera, it also counts with some good features like auto-focus, flash and geo tagging.

This phone has a 1650 mAh medium capacity Li-Ion replaceable battery that provides this phone a poor battery duration. Samsung says this device has a 8 hours talk time and a 384 hours stand by time.

This cellphone counts with wi-fi connection (and it can be shared with other devices around, acting as a mobile hotspot) and fast 3G connectivity, over HSDPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This phone works with a SIM card to connect to GSM networks.

This phone also comes with a couple cool characteristics like Bluetooth (3.0) and GPS Localization, and a couple sensors likeLight Sensor, Proximity Sensor and Accelerometer.

Samsung is offering this cellphone for $ 140, which is not a really offer for a phone this level. No matter whether you will use this phone mainly for internet broswing and social networks or are looking for a gamer phone, this device is probably the correct choice for you.
