Got the phone 10 days ago and love it. Its really basic with no gadgets.
Its an outdoors phone:
Perfect for my mountain biking and daily commute - with winter here soon in Cape Town, I need a water proof phone as I got tired of carrying zip lock bags with me.
Love the email feature - once again basic but it works. Great for checking my inbox when I'm out on my bike.
This phone is a great talking point, especially when you get to freak out your office by tossing it into a water jug for a few minutes and then dial it. :)
I love the ruggardness of this phone and its important factor for me. It reduces the risk of getting smashed during a tumble.
The light came in handy two nights ago - very, very bright but not a maglite.
If your looking for a 2nd phone to haul around to the beach, or on the trails - get it.

This phone is both good...and f'ing annoying. Some very very basic errors...such as not automatically resending a text until within signal - surely a massive mistake on a rugged spec phone that will tend to be used in out of the way places with limited/marginal signal reach? Thats the main day to day annoyance. The phone could do with G3, if only for live streaming of internet radio...and that brings me to apps...or rather not to apps, 'cos there are none as far as I know. The screen does scratch easily it has to be said, and is small. The internet browser is weak, most forms can't be filled...it does work with yahoo mail and ebay but little else. You can view downloaded PDF documents. Torch good back up light for the wilds. Music player very good and loud, but voice phone is weirdly metalic. Battery life is good and it does seem to be waterproof etc. It also has a hole at the top for threading string through so you can sling the unit around yer neck...so anyway I lost mine the other day and am trying to find another one that does all the above things that I want without the annoyances...I don't want to have to buy another one of these phones even though I have a pile of accessories..just one to many annoying features...oh another one I think is the inability to unblock a number. (sorry Dad - I thought you were animal rights extremists. Nod to Neighbours)...seriously. Anyway. Gonna upgrade me thinks.

AliDs, 13 Apr 2010Almost all mobile will have to have their time and date res... moreB2100 is my fifth mobile. I usually change mobiles during 2-3 years. The former four mobiles were all equipped with 2 batteries in order to make things smoothly. In fact, I think 2 batteries are really helpful to me especially in business trip.
I am afraid that none of the four needs to reset the time and date after taking out the battery. That is why I am quite surprised at this new mobile.
Anyway, nothing is perfect. What I can do is just to make it perfect.
The four moibles I used are Panasonic GD85.GD76, SonyErisson K750C, NOKIA 6300.

This is the best phone I have ever bought. I could bring this phone to the beach and talk to my girl while swimming, I also do hiking and mountain climbing so things fall from time to time and this baby can handle everything. Well this is just my opinion but you can see for yourself..

But yes it is a bad idea to get multiple batteries for this phone ... because when u remove the back cover offen the back overs on most phones tend to get loose ... with this phones such a thing would restrict, decrease or even nullify its waterproof capability so its advisable not to buy a 2nd battery unless u travel alot and will be far from the nearest place (car, house, hotel, etc) where u could charge ur phone

I got it yesterday with two batteries. When I took the battery out and restarted it, I was told that the time/date needed to be reset. Accoring to the seller, it is OK.
Is it a right thing for this mobile? Is it a Samsung way to keep the good sealing condition for this mobile?
If so, I WILL BE EXTREMELY SORRY TO BUY TWO BATTERIES!!

You disagree with the phone being able to last for almost a month because you said that your phone only lasted for 3 days with minimal use.....SO IT'S STILL MINIMAL USE AND YOU STILL USED IT.....so you are wrong in saying that the phone cannot last for almost a month because when you tested how long it could last, you said THERE WAS STILL MINIMAL USE. STANDBY means not using or touching it even a bit that's why the standby of this phone is long. IT'S impossible for ANY phone to last only three days on standby.
