i think motorola makes several phones with metal shells. my last moto phone was a v60i (yeah laugh it up it's an old phone) but i loved that phone and it survived many falls and even one intentional (and very forceful) pitch into the wall. that old phone not only had metal shell, it was swappable and you could buy different colored ones on their site (or ebay).

like i said, my old moto with the metal shell was VERY durable, i'm sure they make other newer models with metal shells depending on what price range and what features you are interested in having with a phone.

Verizon's V3c Razr is all metal case and metal hinges.

Let me know too - and one's that's waterproof! (within cost reason)

Hey thinking about getting a cell phone. I was wondering if they have a phone that has like a metal shell. So its really strong. Is there such a thing!?!? Dont really care about having a camera phone, just basic features, and color screen would be nice. But strength, durability, and build quality is important to me. So anyone know of anything? Thanks
