Own it for a week now
First the bad things:
• Primary Camera is bad in low light - Secondary has very high reds and a lot of noise (compared with my HTC 610 ...its bad)
• Main Speaker is horrible (switch on 2m), quite loud but like coming out of a plastic bucket.
• It is not waterproof if you have your headphone jack or USB lid open, it is just regular IP68 certified.
• Week flash light, for this kind of phone its the worst offender!
The Good:
✓ Battery life is great - first charge 96h: 58%wifi 7%screen all rest 2-1% (haven't used it that much the first charge)
✓ Programmable key , two modes, long and short press.
✓ Comes with Qualcomm Quick.Charge 2.0 - 1.5 amps. And with a thick screen protector foil that you can apply.
✓ Elexir 2 has access for all sensors in its list except for "Ambient temperature sensor" and "Relative humidity sensor".
I love the phone,I'm gonna keep using it. The only daily annoyances I have with it come from android, like the thing i have to do 2 swipes and 2 taps to turn off/on data usage! Like Im on a freeken iOS 4, . So I see myself rooting it very soon.
I find myself using the FLIR more often than the regular camera, though I don't use phone cameras very often, no matter the phone. But I turn on the FLIR every day, to check my computers temps, room temperatures... Even how hot is my coffee :D. Its a great toy and a tool; I figured out the draft paths in my C shaped apartment.
And its gorgeous!
Hopes for the next gen: Some of the people who need this phone the most, would often need a good camera with it, for example they need to ask them self "How do we make a mountain biker to say 'I don't need the GoPro today I have the CAT' ".
I would also like to see some extension to attach a snap hook to the phone. Like the
Sony Ericsson Xperia active http://cdn2.gsmarena.com/vv/pics/sonyericsson/Sony-Ericsson-Xperia-active1.jpg
And the current torch light is unacceptable!

I have a Cat S60 and I am very happy with the device, it really is as good (and even more) than it is described. It is robust, very good looking and powerful.
I only have one theme with the main camera app (google camera app). This app takes the photos "very colorful" or saturated, also has no options. For example you can not specify the aspect of the photo (16: 9, 4: 3, 1: 1). Then I tried to install other app (OpenCamera, Camera FV5, Footej Camera, ABC Camera) that allow many more options, but ... in all of them the photos come out with "little color", little saturated, almost tending to black and white. I have tried using the Camera2 API and no.
So I wanted to check if anyone has tried installing some camera app that works well. I do not know if it is a defect in my unit, or in general.
Greetings.

If you are a tradesman, outdoor enthusiast, or just generally rough on your phones, this is hands down the best phone for you. People commenting from their air conditioned offices, typing with their manicured fingernails have no idea what they're talking about when it comes to the S60.

It says that here in GSMArena under specifications and also on CATPhones homepage.
And if you don't believe it, just install some kind of "Android Sensors" app.
By the way - on my CAT S60 GoogleSky is working ok.
Before claiming something, check your facts.
