SAN MATEO, Calif., June 1, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Imagine taking your cell phone and dropping it into the world's strongest blender. What do you think would happen to your shiny screen, precious pictures and contact database? That's right—shredded—unless you have a Sonim phone!

Today, the Sonim XP3300 Force survived the Will it Blend challenge, a UNIQUE feat. Even after Tom Dickenson's 30-second test, the phone still rang, could make and receive phone calls. Take a look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wt1fNKhQdKk. "That's one TOUGH phone," Dickenson states. Compared to the instant phone smoothie they made out of the iPhone 4 last year- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qg1ckCkm8YI- this is pretty impressive. Dickenson turned 50 marbles into DUST in a matter of seconds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3OmpnfL5PCw

… but this one takes the cake! Remember, our phones are backed by Sonim's industry-leading 3-Year Comprehensive Warranty, covering not only manufacturer's defects but also accidental damage, but not blenders."
