Look, I need to know what's goin' on, even when I'm up to my elbows in concrete. The MSNBC app lets me stream their news channel live on my phone. Picture quality is decent enough, even in direct sunlight, and the audio's clear, which is key over the noise of the jackhammer. It's mostly stable, hasn't crashed on me yet, which is more than I can say for some of these other apps. Battery life takes a hit, naturally, but that's the price you pay. The interface is pretty straightforward, even a knucklehead can figure it out. I wouldn't say it's 'actually rugged' but it's survived a couple drops from the ladder so far. No BS, it gets the job done when I need to stay informed.
