MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
I need a new phone to replace my broken phone.
I don't need anything super just phone and the odd text.
I was trying to find one that can survive mud and rain and looking for the old nokias. All I can remember was that they were sort of rubber and dustproof and water proof.
So can anyone tell me the model number to look for or are then any better options?
Also reason for old version as it needs to be cheap!
Many thanks.
5500 Sport! Basic now but I used mine as a bike gps, and it's still going after 4 years.
Motorola defy is the most rugged touchscreen phone you can get.
Nokia 3720 classic
or
Motorola Defy
Thanks for the recomendations however seem to be pricey £100!
Theres also the samsung b2100 and jcb tradesman
That JCB phone is silly money considering it's features - i.e. none.

70 quid sim free, so its possibly the cheapest mentioned on the thread so far - it looks quite big and horrific though. Tough phones tend not to be feature rich.
Ah, ok - they've dropped a lot since I last looked.
I have an old Nokia 5140i phone if you're interested. One of the bouncy ones. cheap....
JCB looks ok, last time I looked it was £200!!!
However the 5140i was more the type of thing I was looking for.
So muddydwarf ygm!
I think I still have the optional gps cover for my old 5140...I think that was the model.
Just get an old 6210i/6310i - but they're not cheap either - in fact I've a drawer full 😉
