Finding a Windows Mobile based phone that can accompany you in hikes and wild adventures may not be easy a few months ago. With Motorola MC55 launched, your problem is officially solved. Although the MC55 has been around since earlier this year, its popularity increased substantially as a tough WinMo phone after it is being publicly advertised only recently. The market is a niche, but Motorola done everything right and more people are getting this device as their adventure companions.

Mind the small antenna; they are designed to help you keep good reception even when you are climbing cliffs or going deep into the forest. It will not be as powerful as a satellite phone, but MC55 can guarantee you a signal where other phones fail. The 3.5-inch resistive touch screen is crisp and easy to use. You will also have Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth v2.0 available to support connectivity. To help you find your way back during adventures, a built-in GPS module with A-GPS support is also provided.

What’s best about this phone is its toughness. It is completely shock resistant; you wouldn’t have to worry about breaking the device when you take it through extreme terrains. The drop-to-concrete from up to 1.2m resistance also makes this phone suitable for outdoor workers. It can operate at a temperature of -10C to 50C — when you can have your phone operates normally in sub-zero condition, it is simply amazing — and it marks its spot as the true all-terrain hardcore WinMo phone.
