Rough phone caterpillar B 100

My review on Caterpillar B 100..

The telephone function is not quite dead Caterpillar, which has a robust telephone line to go along with its line of construction equipment, thinks the simplest phones have a place in the workplace - to prove and to his thesis, he brought the new phone to B100 function CES Unveiled.

The B100 is really a step back from last year B15 Android Smartphone super-rugged handset. This is a simple bar phone designed for speech. It is waterproof and shockproof, designed with buttons for use with gloves and a huge speaker on the back. While the CAT model was here shows Unveiled do not have a SIM card, said the representative of the company, it was very, very strong.

The phone has a 2.2-inch, 320 x 240, 3-megapixel camera and 10 hours of talk time. CAT representatives said that it is compatible with AT & T and T-Mobile, although it does not mention whether 2G or 3G. I think with a phone like this does not matter.

The B100 must be affordable, because it goes against an even tougher competitor: Sonim. AT & T and Sprint sold, guaranteed-to-nothingness-resistant Super-Duper phones Sonim, the CAT promises for several years, have done so to do in 2014 and during the B100 CAT felt strong enough, he felt not as shielded as standard Sonim huge steel and rubber, perfect with the keyboard glove angle. Heck, I broke one of these phones from a concrete block once and still working! Caterpillar B 100 simple a great rough phone so far!

Super-tough B100 !

Here my opinion on B 100 caterpillar...

Yes, I know, I know, it's a feature phone. But still, it is pretty cool! It's true, but if we play with the B100 cat a little, we had to return to this way of thinking before to get a Smartphone (non-touch screen telephone? Whaaa?). Like its big brother, to be expected as robust as a means to the Caterpillar, and a combination of yellow and black colors B15 B100. The B100 feels solid, both for its metal sides. The phone can take up to a decrease of 1.8 meters, and served by the ports can survive submerged in one meter of water for half an hour.

Instead of the touch screen 15, a large button keyboard that, while theoretically should be able to work with gloves at work. In the back is a three-megapixel camera and flash, along with a great speaker - or you can just open the headphone jack on the top of the phone. As a free, well, we know it will come to Germany in Europe this year, and elsewhere. No word on if / when it will be available here, but a representative assured us that more news on this front would be later this year in preparation. Caterpillar B 100 is simply the best!

 My opinion about caterpillar B 100...

Like all the best rugged phones, new B100 cat seems so difficult to be as it pretends. With a thick rubber cover, metallic accents, port flaps and heavy screws. The panel in place, there is no doubt that diverts B100 cat water and dust.

The mobile phone is also IP67 certified to withstand a fall from 1.8 meters (almost 6 feet) to keep the water out up to 30 minutes, while up to 1 meter (3 feet) is immersed, and working at the ends of temperate climate in the range of -25 ° C to 55 ° C (-13 F to 131 ° F).
Industrial aesthetics of the cat is the most important part of his legacy, especially when you consider that this mobile springs department of a company, the tractors and forklifts designs. As such, the durability of the name of the game is here, no fancy features.

Large buttons, rubber gloves on and fingerprints are developed. In fact, they are larger than normal, but they are for use with thick gloves seems a little close together. The phone seems hard as nails, but the device 4.8 oz feels lighter than it looks, which makes they look a little cheap, instead of the premium. Among the volume buttons bright yellow, a dedicated button flashlight torch is sometimes. You need to keep a few seconds to get it started deliberately.

1,150mAh battery promises up to 10 hours of talk time and 23 days standby. Jack says that the microphone and speaker with noise also benefits for workers and outdoor enthusiasts. So,Caterpillar B 100 coud be you choice?
