I bet they suffer from water ingress

bit like the BMW navigator which lists every dealer the landrover unit lists every indian take away a very handy feature from the new owners of Landrover... and it'll give you something to do while wait for the break down truck.

it looks like a rebadged Samsung toughphone ?

2 years and it'll be riddled with rust

It smells slightly of EP90.

Unless it's the V8 version. Then it smells of WD-40.

Its a sonim XP3, fantastic phone had one since its launch. It is one real tough phone, i can go through a phone i 1 month easily but the sonim has hardly got a mark on it. I will say its only weak point is the screen is easyish to scratch i have a 2 inch gouge out of mine but its fine. Highly recommended as a tough phone but not practical for nights out etc as its like a brick.

I should add its not the landrover one i have its the original XP3 UK spec with no camera but its almost identical. The UK phone came without camera the USA phone had the camera.

I understand they can be pissed on and then dipped into peoples pints with no ill effects suffered by the phone.

...but what about the person drinking the pint

Not my phone.
Not my piss.
Not my pint.
Not my problem.

Isn't this the same phone that was dipped in Sir Ranulph Fiennes' diarrhoea?

I've had one of thses Samsungs for ages! I didn't like it to begin after my Nokia 'builders phone'

I like the Samsung a lot more now and it's been dropped bashed and well soaked on the farm and is still going strong.....!

FP.
