CAT S60 hands-on: CAT at MWC 2016

20 February, 2016
CAT's latest S60 smartphone went official earlier this week, and it is beyond interesting. It is the first smartphone to offer unseen before water resistance - up to 5 meters deep, but it is also the first smartphone to pack a thermal camera.

I have an existing discomfort with my Flir s60. Recently anytime I try to charge it, the battery level shows 0% and it doesn't charge at all. A phone engineer said it has a battery issue and that the battery needs to be replaced. I have been looking for a replacement battery here in Port Harcourt - Nigeria, anyone with a relief should please contact me. #blessings

    Well I used to love the phone. Have used it for 4.5 years now. Changed the battery once. It is not the fastest nor has good speeker or microphone.
    The camera is another story that does not produce anything you might want to share with others.
    But it has the IR camera and can withstand anyting. That I love it for. But here is the thing. Have run into problems regarding the OS. It comes standard with android 6 and now in 2021 app developers are starting to discontinue this android version.
    Have been in touch with catphones support and they will not update the firmware. Nor do they come with any instructions in how to help their customers. They just say that it is our problem now the customers have bought their product.
    I guess that this is their policy to keep us buying new phones to stay updated.
    However I stated to their support staff that I would go from a praiser of their products to one that would never consider buying from them again. And that I would share my experience. This did not even get me an reply from their support staff.
    So my advice it to steer clear af this product. It is tough and up for the job but without support I will be going for some other brand.
    Thanks for reading my rant 🙂

      So yourself a favour and don't buy the cat S60, had one for a week, the charge door has broken off,and know this, I am gentle with them as it's not the first time I've had a phone with the waterproof doors, now after 2 charges the phone won't rest now will it power up.
      When it was working the system is that old and outdated it's pathetic, the text is that small even when it's put in bold size.
      Overall very dissatisfied with the phone. A massive let down, I wil also l say that the company I purchased the phone from ALLPHONES have told me they will not replace repair or refund the phone.
      I have contacted cat phones and so far been told they will repair it.

              Is this handset compatable with any smartwatches. I currently use a samsung s7 edge and a hawaui p10 smart watch. Would like to use the watch with any new handset I had.

                Should have at least fingerprint scanner
                A laser distance meter would surely make this a gadget for construction worker.
                As well as a Laser pointer for the engineer on site giving instruction and presenting power point presentation
                a PTT even to replace the two way radio use in construction site.
