Samsung B2100 Extreme, adventure with a flourish

The Samsung B2100 is an attractive device with a tough rubberised housing. The countours of the case are curved with "grip dimples" in the side, which makes it a very nice handset to look at. Everything is fully waterpoof, unless you open the battery cover or charger/headset cover. You can also wear the phone with a lanyard although there isn't one in the box. The rubbery keyboard is not unpleasant to use, but the controller pad does feel a bit stiff. The 128 x 160 pixel screen is basic but very clear and it is certainly good enough for most tasks.

The B2100 is very solidly constructed - and with good reason. Not only do all the panels and joins have to be watertight, but the phone can also survive a one metre drop onto a hard surface plus quite a lot of other abuse. We're not saying that the B2100 is unbreakable, but it can certainly survive events that will kill another phone stone dead. It is slightly on the heavy side - we weighed it at 106 grams with the microSD card installed. The weight is mostly due to the tough construction, if carried in a pocket it won't be a problem, but on a lanyard it could prove to be annoying.


Is it waterproof?

Samsung claim that the B2100 is fully waterproof. Well, is it really? We put it to the test in this video and the answer is "yes". As long as all the covers are firmly in place, then there appears to be no water ingress at all and the handset works just fine under water. In reality, you are not going to make a phone call underwater.. but it shows that the B2100 is highly resistant against rain, getting dropped in puddles or splashed with water or other liquids. It should also survive a trip down to the pub.

The phone wipes clean easily, and if it gets muddy or dirty then you can simply rinse it off.
One drawback is that if you use the wired headset then you will compromise the B2100's watertightness. Care also needs to be taken when opening the panels to avoid damage.

The tough casing does create another problem. Because everything is fully sealed, audio quality is slightly muffled. On a normal phone, the microphone and speakers are mounted internally and covered by a mesh or small holes in the casing to allow sound to travel easily. On the B2100, everything is sealed up and there is a slight but noticeable drop in audio quality as a result.

music player Multimedia

The music player is easy to use and it can cope with MP3s or synchronise with Windows Media Player. Tracks are controlled by the navigation pad plus a volume control on the side of the phone, and the B2100 can happily play music in the background while other tasks are carried out.

As we mentioned before, sound is slightly muffled on the B2100. However, the internal speaker is loud enough to make this a practical portable music player. When played through the supplied headset, audio playback is clear and can be turned up very loud. There's also an FM radio which works in conjunction with the wired headset - this is easy enough to use but it doesn't come with RDS, so radio station names are not displayed.

Web browsing

To be blunt - web browsing on the B2100 is a pretty miserable experience. This isn't a 3G device, so many customers will have to rely on GPRS rates which are about the same as an old-fashioned dial-up modem. The web browser is also pretty poor and can only cope with fairly simple pages, else it fails with a "document too large error", and pages designed for full blown web browsers often render very poorly. On the other hand, simple sites and those specifically designed for mobile phones work just fine.

Camera

Although it is unlikely that you'll buy the B2100 because of it's camera, the 1.3 megapixel unit is fairly decent, if simple. There's no flash, but a virtual iris control can adjust the brightness of a picture.. this takes a little practice to get right, and it can lead to an image being underexposed or overexposed. The B2100 does have some basic image editing functions which can help to fix the pictures you have taken.

The camera also lacks autofocus, but it copes with most things quite well. Again, if you are using the B2100 regularly for photographs, then you will probably want a data cable to transfer the images.

Ease of use

The user interface on the B2100 is pretty typical for a low-end Samsung handset. Even on the limited resolution screen of this phone, it is simple enough to use and there are plenty of keyboard shortcuts to speed things up. The keyboard is very rubbery though, and although the key travel is good, it does feel a little odd. The navigation pad is very stiff, and a little difficult to use.

Call quality

We found that call quality was OK, but slightly muffled due to the waterproof casing. It is certainly good enough for day-to-day use.
Value for money

In terms of raw technical specifications, the B2100 doesn't offer particularly great value for money.. until you take into account how tough it is. This phone will survive experiences which can kill most other handsets stone dead, although we didn't test the B2100 to destruction, we do think that this will be quite difficult to break. If you regularly expose your phone to harsh environments, then its robustness will probably pay for itself quite quickly.

Conclusion

The Samsung B2100 Solid Extreme is an exceptionally durable handset, but this durability does tend to compromise other handset features. Music playback is good, and the basic camera is surprisingly useful if a little fiddly to use. The web browser is the weakest part of the phone, even taking into account the lack of 3G.

It's an attractive looking device, and the toughness should be appealing to many consumers. And it's hard to beat the B2100's party trick of working under water!

T-Mobile Pulse with 257 EUR

Remember the Huawei U8220? Do you like the idea to bring it to Europe as a T-Mobile Pulse? If so, you then will be pleased to hear some recently appeared details on that. First, we have a new picture of it differs from the old, especially the bottom console keys, they are now placed vertically and the overall shape is smoothed out. In addition, the color scheme is also different. I liked the old one better I should say, but anyway, T-Mobile Pulse, as it was recently presented at a Dutch e-store preorder list, sports a cool black and white body. Price at the same place is 257 EUR. Specs after the jump.

So, here's what we have on T-Mobile Pulse:


* Touch sensitive 320 x 480 3.5 inch display

* 3.2 megapixel camera

* HSDPA 7.2 Mbps, HSUPA 5.76 Mbps

* Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth 2.0
* MicroSD slot



T-Mobile Pulse will arrive in Europe in October with Android locked to T-Mobile network. There is a sense in the air that this is not the final information.

T-Mobile started selling Sidekick LX 2009

Another release for today. Now it is T-Mobile’s Sidekick LX 2009. The handset hasn’t brought any big news with it as it has recently come out. Major part of Sidekick’s of specs was known even a couple of months ago but some of those are still argued as more and more people are getting in touch with the phone. Along with it LX 2009 is constantly being compared with its predecessor and the results the newest model scores show the very same basic bias against browsing, messaging and social networking.

T-Mobile’s plan to make Sidekick LX 2009 a Internet-appointed gadget worked well especially with introduction of 3G. 3G Internet is intended to be used for social network apps from Twitter, MySpace and Facebook to Photobucket. That of course is somewhat teenagerish, but the previous Sidekick was and is still popular among youngsters. So should the LX 2009 be. However every now and then we hear about how it is more mature, more grownup. Concept is the same nonetheless – navigation keys at the sides and a nice and easy to use QWERTY under the hood. Display’s response time for changing layout is immediate and the display itself is just gorgeous. Mind you it is a 3.2 inch WVGA and camera shots 3.2 Mpix pictures and records video. One the issues appears to be the battery life – five and a halve hours of talk time and eight hours of standby combined in everyday routine result in two day of intense use at best. These are first impressions though.

Motorola W7 Active Edition

Motorola launches a new version of mobile phone for active people. It is Motorola W7 Active Edition. The phone has built-in sensors that help to control heart rate. Also the W7 has a built-in accelerometer. It makes switching music tracks or answering incoming calls easier.

So Motorola W7 Active Edition is the first step to a healthy way of life.

ZAGG's improvements over iPhone's usability - invisibleSHIELD™ and Z.buds

Apple iPhone 3G is one of the best examples of a successful combination of function and design. For its function improvement we have the upcoming 3.0 OS, but what about its looks. Day after day it gets worn out, scratched and bumped against stuff in purses. The remedy seems to be obvious – a plastic case. I won’t recommend however. Partly because it ruins the design and partly because it may change touch experience. Guys from ZAGG have a patented coating substance which works better than every case out there. In addition, ZAGG can offer tangle-free iPhone headphones with a mic and volume control.

iPhone case by ZAGG is derived from military equipment. Reviewing gadgets, we have come across such things earlier. All of them have been very tough. So is ZAGG's invisibleSHIELD™. The best thing about it, apart from scratch protection, is that it doesn’t change touch experience and there is no telling it is actually on. In rest, invisibleSHIELD™ is easy to install and needs less than 12 hours to dry out. Doesn’t add any bulk or weight to the original device. Really looks like an extra iPhone skin especially after watching the scratch test video below. In fact ZAGG Company is so sure that invisibleSHIELD™ will never let you down that they even provide all their customers with lifetime warranty. ZAGG’s invisibleSHIELD™ is also cheap – only 24.95 USD for full coverage.

World Cup 2010 To Bring Mobile TV To The ForeFront?

While currently no one really cares about mobile (cellular) TV, corporate executives are banking on World Cup 2010 in South Africa to finally bring the service some decent limelight. It really makes sense actually because the majority of soccer and World Cup fans will be working multiple jobs and will unlikely be in sports bars watching the games. I would think that we’ll see much hype behind this event as it approaches as well as some World Cup bundles and deals for current and emerging cell phones. What do you think?

Samsung U750 with e-ink keyboard

Samsung announced unofficial date for the Alias 2 handset. The Samsung U750, or the Alias 2, is expected at May 11th.
Let’s look through the priorities of the handset. A variable e-ink QWERTY keyboard is allocated for the first sight.

With e-ink keyboard writing text or SMS is much easier. User should just open the handset in horizontal orientation and do his work by QWERTY keys. Also, if the phone is opened like a conventional flip, user gets a conventional keypad.

And this is not all. Samsung U750 has a 2-megapixel camera. Also it includes a lot of shortcut keys for easier accessing.

Gadget Rumor: Samsung Omnia Pro Smartphone

Before Monday officially rolls in I thought it only appropriate to further disseminate a Samsung rumor. Supposedly called the Omnia Pro, the handset will build upon the already successful Omnia line up, but add a few features that will probably appeal to the conservative smartphone user. So what should we expect, assuming the rumor is true? A 3.5-inch 800 x 480 AMOLED touchscreen display, slide out QWERTY keyboard, 5mp camera with flash and video recording and Windows Mobile 6.1.

Rumor says the Omnia Pro will hit in July, but let’s hope some additional info leaks out before then to firm things up. Oh, and that pic, it’s a mockup.

LG Viewty Smart

Good news for LG fans. New LG Viewty Smart wouldn’t displease anyone. It has a stunning eight megapixel camera and can record videos in DVD quality. Also the Viewty Smart plays DivX videos as well.

The LG Viewty Smart is just 12.4 mm thin. So fitting all those good things into consumers pocket won’t be a problem. The Viewty Smart is expected to hit European markets first.

Waterproof Solar-powered Phone

The power of the sun is an excellent source of energy and summer is a perfect period when people can use gadgets based on the sun-power. Keeping with the trends and necessities of the modern world, Sharp in collaboration with Japanese cell phone company AU KDDI announced the release of its new waterproof phone that can be charged using sun-power. This idea is by no means new: LG has already announced creation of solar-powered phones. Samsung comes with its Blue Earth solar-powered touch phone. Moreover, Intivation Company has already released the ZTE Coral-200 and Commtiva Sola solar-powered phones.

It is little known of the new phone: the only information is connected with its capability to use the power of the sun. The phone, which is yet unnamed, offers one minute of talk time or two hours of standby time after being under the sun for 10 minutes. So, if you are on the beech, you may sleep for an hour or two and then you will be able to talk for 10 minutes. The phone receives up to 80% of its charge from solar power. The solar panel is placed on the top of the handset. However, it is not very convenient, for you will have to wait for a long time in order to talk a little. Thus, this is another attempt to produce environmentally friendly gadgets. Additionally, it is waterproof.

However, some of the phones mentioned above, have advantages concerning talk-time: LG phone offers three minutes of talking after 10-minute sunlight charging. But while Sharp announced the release date of the phone – June, 2009 – there is no information from LG Company concerning the date. Thus, Sharp phone may be considered as the first waterproof solar-powered handset.

AT&T Hoping to Keep its Hold on the iPhone Until 2011

AT&T's agreement that makes it the exclusive U.S. provider of the Apple iPhone reportedly expires next year, and not surprisingly this wireless carrier wants to extend it.

The two companies have always made it clear that this exclusivity agreement exists, but both have kept the details hush-hush. When it's supposed to expire hasn't been officially announced, but it will currently come to an end next year, according to the Wall Street Journal.

The iPhone has been a huge success for AT&T, and so it's not surprising that the WSJ is also reporting that this carrier wants to extend the exclusivity agreement.

Whether Apple feels the same way isn't covered, but there have been no public signs of dissatisfaction with AT&T.

Following Apple's Plan
There are a great many people who are interested in an iPhone but refuse to switch to AT&T, and this group keeps hoping that the exclusivity agreement between Apple and this carrier will come to an end.

A few of these people mistakenly think that Apple is somehow trapped in this agreement, and if it could just get out then the iPhone would soon be available from Verizon, Sprint, etc. The problem with this theory is that it has been Apple's strategy from the beginning that its smartphone be available from just one source in each country.

The company wanted unusual control over how this device is distributed and serviced, and in order to get that it had to give a wireless phone company unusually exclusive access. Also, limiting the number of carriers that offer a phone greatly simplifies the development and support processes.

Read a ReviewAT&T for at Least Another Year
Whether or not Apple and AT&T agree to extend their cooperation until 2011, AT&T will still be the exclusive provider of all iPhone models until next year.

This means that it will be the only mobile phone company that will offer the next-generation iPhone that is expected to debut this summer.
