A freeze, a swim, and 13 drops: how we destroyed the AT&T Kyocera DuraForce XD

Just how ruggedized is this AT&T Kyocera DuraForce XD? Well, was... We knew we just had to put it to the test from the minute we got our hands on it. So, we tried to simulate a full-year's worth of abuse. These are not scientific tests, just things that are likely to happen in real life usage, especially if you're rocking a ruggedized phone, and you don't care too much about dropping it, because of that. Yes, we managed to break it, as there is really no such thing as an unbreakable smartphone. But we're impressed at just how well it did. Are you?
