Samsung Marine – B2100 Phone In India
Samsung Mobile has announced the launch of its latest “outdoor” mobile phone in India – the Samsung Marine B2100. As evident by its name, the phone is a rough and tough device designed to withstand rough handling and even possesses decent water resistant capabilities. Samsung also claims the phone to be the first of kind in India, thereby virtually creating an entirely new segment in the highly competitive mobile phones market.
The B2100 is encased in an anti-shock urethane material, which enables it to withstand bumps, bangs, scrapes and even dust and water. The phone also features IP57 certification and is resistant to water up to one meter deep for a 30 minute span. It is also capable of withstanding heavy rain, fog, humidity, sand and extremely hot and cold temperatures, etc. It is tested under specifications defined by the U.S. Department of Defense.
On the features front, this one sports loud external speakers, noise cancellation and a flash light. The phone also has a basic 1.3 megapixel camera, camcorder, FM radio, a music player and expandable memory (up to 8GB). Bluetooth and USB support too find their way in. It is available in two color options red and green colors and is priced at Rs 7,030. Techtree had, back in June, first reported that this phone is coming to India at around the same price as mentioned above!
