• Tesco sells these? I have been into four Tesco stores to enquire and have been given the stink eye like I am going crazy. Called the national Tesco customer service number and even they don't have a scooby about the Land Rover phone.

• Had this phone for little over a month well had two phones 4 batterys and the thing is still crap. The battery life has been my problem first charge was on for 24 hours and i got 3 weeks before it died second charge was 3 days now seem if i charge it for 12 hours i get 12 hour out of it and so on. Trying another one when the shop gets it in, only because they will not replace with another phone
  I had high hope for the phone, sadly they have been dashed. Posted by Dave , UK
• THE SONIM S1 IS NOT INDISTRUCTABLE I JUST BROKE THE THING GETTING IT WET. AND EVERY MORNING I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH RETRIEVING TXTS IT COMES UP WITH THE WORD INITIALIZING ON IT. ANOTHER IS THAT THE BATTERY LIFE IS CRAP. AND WHEN YOU GET IT WET ITS HARD TO HEAR SOMEONE RINGING YOU. NOT HAPPY WITH THIS PHONE AT ALL Posted by B MORGAN , uk
• I am about to receive my 4th Sonim phone in less than 6 months, great you can drop it, kick it, wet it, whatever you want really but the thing is, it will just stop working all on it's own ! first phone (xp3 enduro) lasted a week before it started to freeze and refuse to switch on or off. replacement lasted about 5 months before it started to turn itself off for no apparent reason then wouldn't turn back on again for several minutes. replaced last week with an xp3 Quest. this developed a white screen and froze ON THE FIRST DAY !!! If you want an extremely tough phone that is complete RUBBISH this is the one for you. !!
  Next one won't even get out of the box I'm that fed up of it. Posted by Richard W, UK.
• had phone 3 weeks and 3 batteries still not giving more than 12 hours on standby took back just before 30 days and tesco said i would have to send to sonim phone has now gone off again and i cant revive it Posted by john, uk
• Adding to the previous battery complaints - mines no different - I charged as directed - only to find I was down 1 bar on the first day.
  I let the phone run down copletely - thinking it may have a memeory problem - but no ....its a crap battery - the main thing is I have yet to RING anyone on it as I have only sent 2.....count them kids!... TWO... text messages!
  SO, the BIG question is - what other phones use the same size battery that will fit the phone - but NOT made by the SONIM...( or should that be SO DIM after lack of power ??
  Also - has anyone contacted sonim ( so-dim) ? MAYBE trhey have an upgrade battery?? or maybe the JCB phone battery is one that ll fit ?? Posted by greg, England
• hi guys, dont dispair i had a few issues with my land rover phone, battery not lasting more than 48hours, (it did work fine then it didn’t) and my speaker wouldn’t turn up.
  Well one of the SONIMS UK REPRESETATIVES, ENDUROMOBILE have a really handy sonim support section with a full factory reset proceedure, went through it and my phone has been fine for 3weeks now, on the same charge!!….ok not that long but it fixed my problem without doing anything else.
  happy with the phone again Posted by scoonic, UK
