Casio G'zOne Commando Review.| Booredatwork

[MrMcprodigy]

very amazing review!

[Acekillercard]

Still wanna see if you can drop it off your roof into a poll and leave it there for 5 minutes but still a great review

[definedsuccess]

Hey man. Great review! I have a killer idea for a review of this phone... I will be getting mine today and I am sort of scared to review it because I don't want to end up reviewing myself out of a phone lol. . . If I get ballsy i'll post it lol. Looks like a tough device! I wish I could just get an Iphone with a case that would adapt it to be this rugged.

G'z ONE.... not zone

[saosn101]

I highly recommend this phone. I do tree work and snow plowing and have wrecked many phones by dropping them in freezing cold water and from high up in the trees. I've had the Commando since December and I love it. It's been through hell and it still runs great like the first day I got it.

[doomalligator]

would anyone recommend this phone over say an iphone or other high end android? i am at college in the mountains. snowboard. rains alot. hike. camp. etc. let me know! thanks

[lethalidealsdc]

i have this phone, its pretty much legit, i have destroyed many phones when i was a fireman as well as destroyed them by getting them wet, this one litterally i have thrown as hard as humanly possible, dropped, thrown into a lake, froze it in water, left it outside my window for 6 hours in 20 degree weather while it was freezing raining and it still works like a charm, and it runs really fast too, though the battery life sucks, its a small price for the most rugged phone out there =P

[tybrack]

could i use it as a hammer? lol

[malthazar1111]

Yeahhhh now u can text in the shower!

[darkeyce02]

@malthazar1111 i always did that with my Casio Rock, but with the touch screen on this, warm water cunfuses the screen making it think your touching it

[osudude97]

i want this phone really bad...

[RcUniverseGuy]

its shark resistant?

[booredatwork]

@RcUniverseGuy emm I didn't have a shark tank to test it out

[skibum11snowbird]

hahah i love the dryer test lol ive killed a few phones in the wash lol nice to know this will survive nice reveiw!

[booredatwork]

@skibum11snowbird thanks

[airbullet10]

Dude that was the best review yet

[booredatwork]

@airbullet10 Thanks I am glad you like the review

[booredatwork]

@airbullet10 thanks

[ReDnEcKxTrEgO]

Does it have a notification Light

[booredatwork]

@ReDnEcKxTrEgO I believe so. I no longer have the device

[killapawner]

@booredatwork why dont you have it anymore?

[booredatwork]

@killapawner it was a review unit from verizon

[killapawner]

@booredatwork gotcha

[DrewTheGod2]

@ReDnEcKxTrEgO yes.. it blinks green, and it is on the right side of the phone.

[DrewTheGod2]

@ReDnEcKxTrEgO yes.. it blinks green, and it is on the right side of the phone

[FrontFootCatch]

is it a little big for a phone? does it sit easily in the hands and pockets or does it look and feel bulky?

[casperkyle37166]

Nice review! Mines in the mail and will be here in the morning can't wait!

[MrTjpinoy94]

Can you tilt the phone in landscape view and have a keyboard that way?

[ryanmajor2]

So I just ordered this phone for my girlfriend. I originally got her a droid1, she broke her screen, so got her a droid2, she broke that too, and then got her a droid3 and she broke that as well. Tired of spending money on this. This phone better last her for the next 4-5 years.

[DrewTheGod2]

hey i gots a question i gotta choose by the commando, droid 3 or thunderbolt tell me which one you think is abosuluty better.

[booredatwork]

@DrewTheGod2 those are 3 different devices.

if you love the outdoors, swim, surf, & hike a lot then the commando is for you.

Droid 3 has the best keyboard on the Verizon network

The thunderbolt is an LTE android device

So are you looking for something outdoors, need a keyboard or looking for a 4G LTE device

[DrewTheGod2]

@booredatwork something that is durable and fun to have

[booredatwork]

@DrewTheGod2 then the commando is the best bet for you, as you can see in the video it can out last a lot plus its running android 2.2 and works well

[russellman421]

im getting this phone ordered it today. :)

[moosafur]

Tinie Tempah??

[draw14me]

I have noticed, that the salesman at the Verizon store, do not know to place the cover on the back of the phone correctly, so water will not get in the phone. As with any device going underwater, such as submarine or cellphone, all doors must be closed properly to avoid drowning and sinking to the bottom of the ocean. I have taken my Casio Commando swimming several times, took showers with it several times, wash it when I wash my hands, for the past 2 months, and no abnormal problems.

[RAGEINGJOE]

i got one of those phones i am in the deep south so its good to have and its cool that your doing this review and all but that still is a $450 phone so i would not do all that just to test it.

[TrussellZ71]

I know this may sound stupid. But im still deciding whether to get the Commando or the Ravine.

[booredatwork]

@TrussellZ71 its ok commando

[TrussellZ71]

@booredatwork Thanks for your input. I hope it can survive Alabama rednecks too.

[homie457]

@TrussellZ71

I have a ravine and its the best phone i have owned... no problems... but im thinking of getn one of these as well

[TrussellZ71]

@homie457 I had the commando and it is a great phone. But it was more than I needed at this time, so i got the ravine.

[ToroToker]

Casio should send you a check because I can guarantee this video has sold 100s of phones.

[booredatwork]

@Kahrkus thanks

[TheSmilinace]

niceee video, makes me feel much better bout this phone, i have had the rock and boulder and knew how tuff they were, but i was worried that this just wouldnt be able to deal with water like the old ones, sweeeet

PS i broke my previous rock in half..... lol

[M00nGazer19]

thank you this video gave me the answer i needed to buy this phone

[chattybox13]

BEER!

[05EVORS]

poured water on mine in front of my coworkers today one of em thought I was insane his cigarette fell out of his mouth I was lmao. Then when I handed it to my iphone coworker he thought it was a pita cuz screen requires man-pressure instead of office hands to use it

[9nxt]

@MrDtambo19 u can just download google navigation and it works just as well for free

[05EVORS]

7:54 ........THANK YOU for the dryer test w your shoes!

[05EVORS]

If you want 4g use wifi!

[05EVORS]

quadrant app says its faster than Droid x2 on store demo even @800mghz

[Rutgerschiefs]

Hows the speed compared to the iPhone or droid charge, and does the camera work under water?

[9nxt]

@Rutgerschiefs not a 4g device and its ur avrage 3g speed . yes it does film in the pool all the time :D

[setbro]

@9nxt 4G is a marketing term anyway. No phone is truly 4G, that would be faster than your home internet, WAY faster!

[9nxt]

@setbro ye but the 4g is a bit faster then  3g and almost as fast as wifi so if u want that bit more speed then yea :D

[jovathree]

Should have done a washer test too. Is that even possible? I've never left my phone in my pants to go through the wash, but I know people who have.

[redsurly6]

FINALLY someone who puts this rugged phone through it's paces. A telling thing for me was the dryer test. Several other people have dipped the device into the water but have not taken the phone to the extremes you have. It's much appreciated by someone who spends allot of time outside and in rugged environments.

I was wondering if you could do like others did with the old Boulders. Freezing it in a block of ice etc. I'm looking forward to getting my own Commando. Keep up the good work.

[booredatwork]

@redsurly6 Thank you, Unfortunately, the device was a review unit, so I won't be able to carry out more test with it. But i can tell you I did enjoy the fact I tossed that puppy around and not a scratch. So yeah, if you are an outdoor kind of person. Then the Commando is for you

[joejoerg]

iphone sucks...we got the real deal right here

[Phil2153]

That was excellent, especially tossing it in the dryer. How long had it been in the dryer?

[booredatwork]

@Phil2153 it was in the dryer for 10mins

[ParasValecha]

Great review dude! ;-)

[badshaksly]

Android? More like MANdroid!

[jjjimson99]

very nice review!!!

[minersoproductions]

lmao it survives shoe damage

[Trusteft]

What's that small hole near the power button?

Great review. This looks like a very interesting phone although I am certain is far more than I could afford lol.

Well...on the other hand I still prefer the normal "candy" like phones, so nevermind.

Still, good video!

[bwonedotcom]

Countdown champion!

@bwonedotcom This one was special
