Casio's G'zOne C771 rugged Android smartphone for Verizon

The Casio G'zOne series of phone for Verizon is know for their Military Specs for being able to take abuse, including water, dirt, and extreme temperatures. So why hasn't Casio made a G'zOne Android smartphone? Look no further, as it is now a reality. The Casio C771 G'zOne model looks to be resistant to all those same things, with a rubberized body, noticeable silver screws, locking battery cover on the back, and protective gaskets on the ports to keep the elements out. There's stereo speakers and a large touchscreen on the front, though the size was not given, with the 4 familiar touch buttons at the bottom, and the camera and LED flash on the back. Unfortunately, the report doesn't indicate any specifications about the device, so we'll keep an eye out for it and hope to bring you more information about the Casio C771 G'zOne during our CES coverage. But from looking at the FCC filing, the device will support 3G EVDO Rev A, not 4G LTE, but Wi-Fi will be included.
