Samsung B2700



Introduction:
Phones resistant to impact, dust and water are rarely found on the market so the release of such a model by Samsung deserves a small celebration. B2700 is made to survive. It has a protection class IP54 (meaning that is dust and splash resistant) and is equipped with a compass, pedometer, altimeter and a flashlight.



Design:
B2700’s design is nothing special, but that’s not a surprise, considering that the model has been created to work in rough conditions. Its entire body is rubber-coated, quite thick and relatively heavy.




It has a low resolution (176x220) TFT display, supporting 262k colors. Over it is located the camera for video calls, and below it are all navigational and soft buttons, accompanied by the keyboard.



Interface:
B2700’s software doesn’t offer any great extras, but offers everything a phone from this class should. That includes theme creator, user-friendly phonebook (no second name search), e-mail with automatic settings support and multiple organizing functions (calendar, alarms, World clock, tasks etc.). The only additional features are the pedometer and the compass, which is equipped with altimeter as well. Calibrating it is a strange process (you have to rotate the device as shown on the display) and we didn’t think it was very precise. We will share our detailed opinion with you in the review of a final unit.
