Samsung strengthens with a strap mobile

The B2100 Xplorer tolerates external influences well.

The extensive use of a partially urethane body and special insulation technologies gives the newcomer a surprising toughness: the Xplorer meets the most stringent requirements in the category, including certification to the relevant European IP57 standard and MIL-STD-810F for use in the US Army. system qualification. In practice, this means that the device survives for about 1 minutes at a depth of 30 meter below the water surface without damage, and also has limited resistance to physical impacts. So far, only the Sonim XP3 Enduro has been able to perform similarly in the series-produced models, but its appearance is not average. Unfortunately, in this respect, Xplorer doesn't offer anything lasting either, but compared to its rival, it looks almost nice. Examining the body of knowledge, unfortunately, we can still face the usual trend in the category, ie the massive body covers primitive abilities. The presence of a 1,3 megapixel camera can be said to be formal, just as the Bluetooth 2.0 A2DP radio, the flashlight function and the memory card slot only bring the expected level. A pleasing novelty, however, is the noise-canceling sound system, which uses a dedicated microphone to try to separate the speaker's voice from the surrounding unwanted sound effects.
