The Samsung M110 Solid is also known as the Samsung M110 & as the Samsung Solid for short. It is a highly robust handset which will withhold the elements of dust & water as well as being dropped onto a hard surface from up to one metre. The casing is a rubber material & the handset is fully sealed to protect it from water splashes & dust damage. Its built in features are not particularly highly specified but this handset is built to withhold the elements not to perform amaze its user with technologies. It comes with a CSTN type screen which is 1.5 Inches in size & displays up to 65k colour with a screen resolution of 128 pixels by 128 pixels. This versatile & hard wearing handset weighs 95 grams & its dominions make it easy for the user to carry with them at all times as its height is 109mm, width is 48mm & it is 17.9mm in thickness.

A predictive text option allows the user to start to type a work which will automatically be completed by the predictive text service, this allows the user to type a text message quicker & using fewer keys when typing. A built in SOS message feature allows the user to send a SOS message when required & it is easy to access for those more difficult situations.

Despite being a girl, I've trashed the last 3 mobiles I've owned, so wanted one that could withstand being dropped in the washing up bowl or bounced off a wooden floor! The good news is the Solid should even be Me proof.

I also wanted a simple basic phone that just rang & texted. I am not a teenager & won't be spending hours listening to music via my mobile or playing games. But there's basic & then there's out of the Ark basic! These are my gripes.

- If you switch off the phone the alarm doesn't work.
- You can't use any other tone than the 4 presets for text message alerts & the presets are next to useless.
- You can't specify a tone for the alarm other than the preset one.
- Every time you send a text or make a call, the phone tells you how much credit you have left (on O2 Pay & Go) & plays have. Annoying loud ringtone which you can't turn off.
- You can't go straight to your Contacts List when sending a text, you have to bypass empty lists first (I have no idea what these are for! ). Sending a text is stupidly complicated for such a simple phone.
- It lists Sent texts in reverse order I.e. A text you sent last week appears first & texts you've sent today are off the screen. Though for Received texts it's the opposite & shows newest texts first!
- the screen is very small & although you can set text size to small you can't save this setting & it reverts back to large text the minute you press send.

However, there are things I do like about the Solid, including.

- Excellent battery life.
- Simple Scheduler with alarm.
- Good sound quality for calls.
- Nice big keys for texting.

I've had mine now for about a week. It very much lives up to its name, you buy this as a solid workhorse phone not a fashion accessory. Having said that it still looks pretty cool in my opinion.

OK, a bit of bad stuff now, the VGA camera is worse than useless. I can't believe people still make phones with those. I'd happily pay more if they'd have put a 2MB camera in there to make it really useful. I appreciate that the majority of their target market wouldn't care but I still think they've really narrowed the appeal of this phone as consequence. The OS is less refined than Nokia's, a lot more button presses to do a simple thing like send or view a text.

Finally, the FM radio works fine & the headphones look like real Walkman headphones as opposed to the Nokia ones. The battery is EXCELLENT - I have no reason to doubt the quoted 8 hour talk time or standby time & yes it's SOLID.
