The most exciting part about the G'zOne Boulder is it supports Verizon Wireless’ next generation PTT (Push-to-Talk) system using EV-DO Rev network. The G'zOne Boulder is water, shock and dust resistant, rival of Motorola’s iDEN phones that Sprint offers. Features and specifications of the Boulder phone includes a 1.3-megapixel digital camera, a built-in MP3 digital music player, video player, and microSD memory expansion slot.

This phone is awesome. I love it. Im a mom of three and often drop my phone and this phone is tough enough for me. My husband is in the Coast Guard and drives boats. He has dropped his phone MULTIPLE times in the frigged waters and NEVER a problem. It can hold up to the coldest of temps. I simply love this phone! I take loads of pictures and videos and send them to family, they love them. The quality is great as well.

If your husband dropped it into frigid waters then how did he recover it? Because the Boulder doesn't float.

I have taken pics underwater and used it as a puck for street hockey. It has taken 20 foot falls onto concrete. It never failed! I beat up so bad when I stopped by verizon today they gave me a newer version. I like this one even more!!!!

0 vote Totally lame, the "metal"

Totally lame, the "metal" (actually painted plastic) battery cover turn screw broke from a 2 foot drop out of my girlfriends car. Why not just use a real metal screw. Do it right or don't do it all.
The UI is terrible as well.

Aaron is right the new G'zOne Boulder phone is a piece. First of all, let me say that yes it is a waterproof phone. That's awesome. That being said it is not half as "rugged" as it claims to be. The metal screw that locks in the battery is actually plastic. On the old phones it was actual metal. So they do have metal screws they just chose not to put them on the new models. I dropped mine all of three feet and the screw snapped in half. Luckily I had just bought my phone within thirty days because verizon told me that the screw wasn't covered by warranty. If it had broken after thirty days, I'd be up the creek. Also with the G'zOne you have to buy a holster for it. You can't carry it in your back pocket like other phones because the front speaker apparatus presents an uncomfortable sitting posture. The flash on it also sucks. The flash is this bright LED that does pretty well as a small flashlight for seeing and such but it doesn't do anything at all for the camera. If you have poor light before you take the picture the LED won't serve to do much, except blind the person whose picture you are taking. Then there is the sound the phone makes when the battery is going dead. If the battery starts to go dead it starts doing this death beep. It's really loud and annoying and the only way to actually turn it off is to put the phone on vibrate. Compass is okay, but you have to calibrate it a lot. Otherwise if you get lost in the woods you'll find that the compass is giving you wrong directions. A word of advice, if you want a phone that looks tough and rugged then get a G'zOne Boulder. If you want a phone that is actually rugged get something else. This phone just doesn't cut it.

I subscribe to the concept that my phone should withstand about the same abuse that a working man's watch would withstand. My phone is not a fashion statement, it is a tool. I need it to be with me and work when I need to communicate.

This G'zOne Boulder is that phone.

When you think you want this phone, you already know there are trade-offs. Like buying a Jeep Wrangler. No, it isn't a Mercedes and no it doesn't have 50 cup holders and built-in DVD screens for the 3 rows of back seats. But the vehicle gets you through a lot of tough situtations.

I expect my Boulder to take a number of hits when I lift and carry things. I expect it to work fine after working in a rainstorm. I expect it to work after I doff my fire gear after a fire.

I expect all that because this phone has survived those tests and more. The audio isn't as clear as a fine-tuned home theater showing a Blu-Ray. But I can still carry on a conversation without problem.

The petty problems people report in these online reviews? Think about it. If this phone isn't durable enough, what freaking phone is? You aren't going to go get a Blackberry because the Boulder isn't tough enough for you.

This phone is great!

0 vote Congratulations on your

Congratulations on your phone surviving thus far. You must have an exceptional model. I admit you might not need all the bells and whistles. But a phone should be able to drop more than three feet and not break. I've had four different phones with two different companies. All of them can survive a drop of more than three feet. As to the other features I reviewed them, that's what this site is for after all.

this phone is awesome. i'm a pro kayaker and i keep this phone in my life jacket while paddling. sometimes i take pics and video from my kayak in the middle of a rapid. i got the big battery. it lasts for days even in the cold. the light is handy and it gets pretty good service. mine has served me well but my buddy broke a few of the older ones though.

This phone is garbage. I have had 3 already and I have to take it back again. The service is terrible. The phone is always dropping calls and now it will not ever pick up a signal.

0 vote My Husband loves this phone

My Husband loves this phone it is the second rugged phone he has owned from Verizon. Just lately I washed it in my new front loading washer. I always put his work clothes on the longest wash cycle, with the hottest water the washer heats with pre-wash for 2.5 hours. when I opened the door taking the clothes out the phone fell out. I picked it up and called my husband, told him the story and said " the phone still works"

I do not believe some of the other comments above.

This phone looks pretty durable, if i do say so myself. I reckon this here phone might be mighty handy when I'm working at the garage. I just really can not fathom givin up my Razr from straight talk to grab this phone as my Razr is so sleek and cool(the ladies love it). Also with straight talk my plan is really affordable and the service is great.

0 vote I will say it stands up to

I will say it stands up to being advanced when it comes to durability. There was a minor issue with the top plastic covering just over the circular front displan panel coming partially detached every time I flipped open the phone but I was able to fix it by adjusting the position and using cazy glue. Once I did that I had no other issues and that was a year ago.

What is not advertised is that for photo and video, you can't see the image clearly on that front display screen which is needed when you want to take a picture or video which you want to be a part of. The display is Monochrome , and you see somehting in the display but it looks like what an xray would look like. I mean if you are looking for pic and video quality the phone is poor and that's being generous. Even the quality on the main panel isn't very good. I've had phones purchased 3-4 years ago whos video and pic quality were much better.
