Samsung B2700 Bound review

For this mobile, splashing around and roughing it is what it's all about

Rugged build quality Water- and dust-resistant to IP54 standard 3G multimedia capabilities ; Good quality music player ; Decent quality earphones supplied ; Camera built in ; FM radio ; Compass and pedometer functions ; Flashlight ; Snap-hook clip...

Low resolution display ; Small onboard memory storage ; No MicroSD card supplied in-box ; Chunky build may not suit everyone ; Disappointing camera operation and performance ; Low resolution video capture

Geared up to weather rough and tough conditions, Samsung's B2700 is a hard-case 3G handset for the outward bound

Samsung - B2700

Out and about types often find their mobile phone just isn't up to the job. Drop your phone in the mud, cycle over it, get it wet and it just might decide to give up working ...

The B2700 offers a fair range of rugged features that might endear it to outdoors types. Its biggest lures are the long battery life and tough casing, though there are significant compromises in other areas.

Samsung B2700 Bound rugged mobile phone

Tougher than most, with a decent set of mid-range features for boldly going where few phones have gone before.

There are tougher phones out there, such as the buildingsite-centric JCB ToughPhone, but the B2700 Bound offers a fair level of protection for work and play while still providing modern comforts like 3G connectivity, a decent browser, media player and...

Dust- and water-resistant to IP54 standard ; Rugged and solid build ; 3G multimedia functionality ; 3 version offers good online features ; Decent set of mid-range features ; Good music player ; Long battery life

Limited 2-megapixel camera ; Poor music storage capability ; No MicroSD card supplied ; You can only use proprietary headphones

Samsung B2700 Bound review

Samsung's latest toughphone, the B2700 Bound, sports a robust build with an array of features. But how does it fair against the competition?…

A sturdy phone with a feature set that outdoes the other ruggedised phones on the market

Despite sporting 3G data speeds, the internet experience was not as smooth as we might have hoped

Ideal for the outdoorsy type who wants a range of decent features but contained in a body that can withstand the odd bump and knock.

Samsung B2700

A ruggedised, water and dust proof phone with a great price tag.

Rugged casing, IP54 water and dust resistant, 3G capable, flashlight, value for money

Not really stylish, five-way navigational pad is a little small, no 3.5mm headphone jack

It may not look the part, but the B2700 is certainly an impressive handset if you are after a mobile phone that can take a beating. At this price, it's great value.

Samsung B2700 review: Tough and geared

Samsung may be flying high on INNOV8 but they sure have at least a toe on the ground. Just recently they spilled the low-to-mid-end bag, so we don't forget a flagship is only as good as the fleet behind it. No handset in the handful they just...

Shock, splash and dust resistant (IP54 certified) ; Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE phone, UMTS 2100 MHz ; Very nice and responsive user interface ; 2 MP camera, secondary video call camera ; 1.9" 256K-color TFT display, 176 x 220 pixels ; Flashlight, Compass,...

Display could've used a higher resolution ; No autofocus in camera ; Poor video recording

rather trimmed down spec sheet with quite some extra features
