JCB Toughphone Is Tough To Look At

I usually try not to make snap decisions. I like to give things a chance to be horrible before I deem them so, however I can't not call this phone ugly. There is not a feature in the world that would talk me into carrying the JCB Toughphone around.

Its industrial strength casing can withstand dust, shock, water and repeated dropping. It comes with Bluetooth, push to talk, and dual speakers that are extra loud. It comes in various colors: black and black, black and red, black and blue, black and green, and black and gray.

The Toughphone is also known as the Sonim XP1, and incase you were interested it's also been nominated to represent the word "fugly" in the dictionary (by me). That being said I know it's purpose is for a higher calling than social status and in that case it is a nice phone.
