not long ago we showed off the NEC train for the AT&T network it's a rugged durable phone you weren't content with just an unboxing and hardware walk-around you wanted to watch this abuse it I'm Joe Levi for pocket now let's get to it some people might call me soft I have a desk job I Drive a Prius other than the goatee on the outside I'm not what most people would call rugged while that may be what most people see I also build stuff I get my hands dirty well I won't claim to be as rugged as others who do really hard work every day I can certainly value the benefits of a good durable smart phone that I won't have to worry about breaking luckily the NEC terrain lives up to its motto made for hard work the NEC terrain is water resistant it's a rugged device that sports a keyboard and considering that its primary purpose is to be rugged and durable it's a pretty nice phone the terrain is rated ip67 for dust and water immersion and comes with a military 810g for shock extreme temperatures and salt fog I still don't know what that is but it's got to be pretty good because it's military rated right even with all those durability ratings it still manages to cram push-to-talk and a QWERTY keyboard inside its ruggedized shell on the inside of the device the NEC terrain is a little more on the light side although it has a dual-core 1.5 gigahertz Snapdragon s4 8960 processor it only has one gigabyte of RAM and a 640 by 480 screen this smartphone isn't gonna win any performance contests it's also running Android 4.0 that's Ice Cream Sandwich and it seems a little bit out of place to us overall the device is pretty snappy and we didn't notice any hanging or lagging except when it took us two or three times to tap it's somewhat small on-screen buttons if your job has you in the field more than in an office or at a desk and you want a phone that's a little more durable than the relatively fragile flagship devices from the major OEMs the NEC terrain is a great mix of performance specs and durability hopefully that'll satisfy your need to see this little guy abused dropped kicked and even dunked in water if it didn't you'll need to get your own phone and send us the video of how you abuse it if you liked what you saw here and who doesn't like seeing phones dropped in water and thrown across the yard make sure you give the video a thumbs up and subscribe to our channel if you haven't done so already if you'd like to share this video with your friends on your favorite social media networks we're there we'd love to see you there too on Twitter we're at pocket now I am at Joe Levi's for pocket now abusing phones I'm Joe Levi thanks for watching
