Anyone use a cheap waterproof (pref not locked) mobile - TXT and phone only fine - emergency winter bike phone use 🙂
Cheap phone + zip lock bag
Yup obviously considered the waterproof case - looking for a waterproof option 🙂
Samsung M110

I paid about £40 ish for mine. Phone will standby for 10-12 days.
It does calls and basic texting. Camera etc are rubbish.
Samsung are the only company still doing them that i know of.
I used to use the Siemens version, the me45 was nearly indestructible.
Landrover one looks like an old nokia with a few bolts and land rover badge on it, pretty sure they are expensive.
Yeh the landy one is uber expensive 🙂
My local HomeBargain (might be a local chain of shops) had some zip locked neck pouches in earlier in the summer for £1. Triple zip lock with a fold over section sealed by poppers. Not 100% waterproof, but for me it is enought to sling my old phone in and take on rides.
Found this one:
Samsung E1130 Rocky - about £30 - Anyone got one?
I have that samsung and the newer one that replaced it too, both good tough phone and text phones with little else. I use one all the time.
Cheers Restless - one bought off pixmania for £27 - Its splah proof but that all I need in my back pocket on the bike 🙂
