It's not i've bought two of them years ago because they have a decent spec rugged phone. The s60 was bulletproof and lasted ages and even a drop from standing height on concrete. I upgraded to a later model (i think s90) and that was a piece of shit. The quality control is crap, don't expect software updates but if you get a good one the hardware is great. So not a scam but i would stay away.
The simple fact that buying a $300 device and to "not expect software updates" is not considered a scam is hilarious to me.
