Cherry Mobile R9 Rough and Cherry Mobile R7 Vigor : Robin Padilla's New Shockproof Phones

I dunno about you. But for me, if Robin Padilla says a phone is shockproof, it's gotta be shockproof.

I mean, there are very few people on this planet I'd be willing to take lessons from as regards things that resist shock, Robin Padilla is definitely one of them.

To quote Miss Agnes Conopio of Cherry Mobile, "Robin is our shockproof mobile phones personified. He is tough and rough to survive all the blows that he has encountered in his life and career."

Cherry Mobile R7 Vigor and R9 Tough are both equipped with an easy-grip, protective rubber casing that can withstand shocks against drop impacts from as high as 1.5 meters and sudden bumps, jolt and blow.

These new niche of stylishly rugged phones also bring together the best features a multimedia phone can have — Dual SIM/ Dual Standby, camera, FM Radio, loudspeaker, Bluetooth, JAVA/built-in games, Flashlight, MMS/WAP/GPRS and an expandable storage up to 4GB. The R7 Vigor, which has an SRP of only Php 1,999, is a bar type mobile phone while the R9 Tough, which sells for Php 2,399, features a QWERTY keypad.
