Verizon and Motorola today announced the Motorola Barrage. This rugged device sports a tough-as-nails exterior. Designed to be submersible for up to 30 minutes in one meter of water, it is constructed from chrome, glass, mesh and rubber — protecting it against blowing rain, humidity, solar radiation, high and low temperatures, blowing dust, salt fog, altitude, shock, vibration and transit drop. The Motorola Barrage also features a best-in-class Push to Talk capability for quick conversations as well as exclusive Verizon Wireless multimedia and entertainment services so customers never have to rough it, even when they’re using the device in rough environments.

Features:
Mil Spec certified for extra strength and protection from blowing rain, humidity, solar radiation, high and low temperatures, blowing dust, salt fog, altitude, shock, vibration and transit drop
Waterproof when submerged in up to one meter of water for up to 30 minutes
Push to Talk features for fast, clear and reliable calls and chirps
Large battery that packs 1170 mAH for extended talk time
