The editors liked

  • Excellent shock
  • Water and dust resistance. Funky features. Okay styling
  • The National Geographic Xplorer has a stylish
  • Rugged body
  • A flashlight
  • An FM radio
  • And two phone numbers

The editors didn't like

  • Lacks features many more basic nonruggedised phones have
  • Like 3G
  • The Xplorer's call quality could be better
  • And it has a proprietary charger and a shared charging and headset port. Data is pricey and the cost of placing calls can quickly add up

  • The Samsung Xplorer B2100 is a very well made and very cheap phone. Everything performs relatively well, with the exception of the muffled sound quality, which gets worse if dunked in water.The good points include a strong battery life, powerful...

  • The National Geographic Xplorer has a stylish, rugged body, a flashlight, an FM radio, and two phone numbers
  • The Xplorer's call quality could be better, and it has a proprietary charger and a shared charging and headset port. Data is pricey and the cost of placing calls can quickly add up
  • Globe-trotters seeking a ready-made travel solution will appreciate the Xplorer's convenient Talk Abroad SIM. However, mounting expenses for a basic rugged handset will turn away existing GSM phone owners.

  • Lacks features many more basic nonruggedised phones have, like 3G
  • This is not a sophisticated handset that youll want to show off to your mates. But if you need something resilient to protect it from your environment (or from yourself), its a capable and efficient, even likeable phone...

  • Looks okay. Has some nifty features. Dust, water and shock resistance are excellent.
  • Is missing some featuressuch as 3G that are found on a lot of more basic ruggedised phones.
  • It's never going to earn awards for its good looks, but the Samsung Solid Extreme's most important function is to protect itself from a clumsy owner or harsh environment. It does this very well and also offers some nifty extras. If you're looking for a w...

  • If you’re after a mobile for high-end functionality, the Samsung Solid Extreme won’t be for you. It has a limited feature set, and lacks the multimedia firepower and gadgetry of typical mid-tier 3G mobiles. It’s not exactly going to swin...

  • If youre after a tough-living phone that can withstand bad weather and ill-treatment – including a bit of underwater dunking – the Samsung Solid Extreme B2100 could be a mobile thats well worth looking at.While Samsung has made durable handset...

  • If you want a phone as tough as Wolverine's nails (and believe you me, they're tough) then the Samsung Solid Extreme is up to the task. It's ruggedised outer casing protects it from knocks and scrapes and leaves it feeling indestructible. You...
  • Unfortunately, while the Samsung Solid's tough as Chuck Norris' old boots it's about as smart as David Beckham. The handset is light on features for a start. There’s no 3G, no Wi-Fi, no GPS. There’s no fully fledged Web browser, th...
  • As rugged phones this one is pretty tough. Put it in a ring with the Land Rover phone, however, and it may come out with a tyre tread over its fascia!Samsung Solid Extreme Review is tagged with Samsung Solid Extreme, mobile and handset. Select a tag (S...
