And can do googling for longer time than Nokia E6 Symbian Anna. C3350 also has nice speaker with great bass sound. No need ext. Antena to listen fav radio. Those are enough for me and i love it for outdor.

Not a good phone, for a tough phone the plastic screen protector breaks easily and so then does the screen, worst of all the screen cannot be replaced. I had the phone in my front pocket with a small set of keys, I had cause to climb under a trailer and whilst lying on a grassed surface on the phone the screen broke. Now you find out there is no warranty because this is considered physical abuse (tough phone remember) and worst of all you cannot retrieve date, contacts included because the screen is non replaceable. "caveo emptor"

felix, 24 Feb 2012Why on earth, people buying this phone for 180 Euro?????Because of IP67. I wish the Xcover this stay with me for years. I hate switching to new mobile model every few years.
My previous phone, Siemens ME45, has been more than 11 years with me (battery replaced four times).I wishing that this Samsung can endure something like it also.
By the way, cover 271 is available for less than $125 here.

nikhil, 14 Nov 2010damm damm samsung . why the hell didnt you put 2000mah battery in this like the previous 2G xc... moreObviously there is E2730 that cover your needs for the amazing battery life. It's hard-wearing but not water-resistant, but cheap and simple, no fancy features. Although I would still go for 2710...

2. I believe it will save sms on sim until it's full (mine can take 20) after that it saves them on phone. I don't know how what's the sms capacity of phone but I haven't hit the limit yet.

RickySyd, 05 Jan 2012Does the phone have a socket for an external antenna? That's what separates a toy from a tool.... morevery easy to answer no it doesn't just to say it lol great little phone though would like to see m dad try and break this one with his phone track record.

Does the phone have a socket for an external antenna? That's what separates a toy from a tool. A ruggedised phone should be a TOOL. Using an external antenna with my A411 makes all the difference in low-signal spots.

Anonymous, 08 Sep 2011Great phone for my trade however when I go to my contacts and type in the first letter, why do... moreWhat it does is for example: if I type in N it finds all names in your contact list that start with the letter N or have the letter N standing alone ie; Jim n Alice ... hope that helps ya.

1 pro:
Went swimming in the sea and the phone is still working.
Made a few calls after, while it was still wet. People couldn't hear me clearly, said that it had a "crackling sound", but I sure could hear them perfectly.
It all came back to normal when it dried.
1 con:
The fkin characters are so small, even if I've set them to BIG, that I almost need glasses to read a message or see the callers ID.
As a result of this, I've bought the C3350.
Now I can finally see clearly what's written!
Who'd say that a 2.2' would differ so much from a 2.0' screen...?
It has no GPS, no 3G, but, darn! I'm liking it a lot!

Got this mobile yesterday.
The first thing I have tested was the torch:
Yes, like it was said before, it automatically turns off after 1 hour.
Less than 1 battery bar was spent during the test.

@CountryGirl : the jack itself is in the form of a micro USB slot. So yes, you can charge it from your computer, but you will need a data cable (standard USB on one of the ends and micro on the other, to connect to the phone).
As far as for the phone itself - it's AMAZING !!! I just love it.

Hi! Does the GPS ser comes with the current, max and medium speed feature built in, or is there a program to show these features? 10x

I'm thinking about buying this & wondering about the multifunction jack. What does the charger look like. ie: is it USB, can you charge it from the USB port on your computer, or a car usb generic charger or is it specialized? Also, what is the headset jack like? It says it's not 3.5, so what is it? I'd like to use the mp3 player part to plug into my car aux. jack. Also, can you use the phone as an mp3 player & still receive calls? Thanks for your help!
