According to our mobile phone expert
The CAT B26 8GB Black can withstand the most extreme conditions. Thanks to the sturdy casing, this ruggedized phone is dust and waterproof. The phone easily lasts up to 30 minutes during a dive and up to 1.3 meters deep in water. On top of that, the B26 has fall protection, so your phone won't break if you drop it. In addition, this phone is suitable for use under extreme temperatures. It won't stop working in case of temperature changes between -25 and 55 degrees Celsius. You can use the device on a construction site and for outdoor adventures, but not for social media or WhatsApp. That is because you can only use this phone to make calls and send texts.

I had a CAT B100 before this, and I was very happy with it. So now another CAT. But this one is very disappointing. Very annoying problems are, if the bluetooth handsfree disconnects, the phone goes on silent. So you will no longer hear calls. It is also very difficult that all messages and calls do not contain a date. As a result, you never know whether the call or message was today or earlier. I've been in contact with the Cat service desk in England, and even they couldn't help me because they weren't aware of the software on this device. Which also really surprised them. They would come back to it, but I haven't heard from them yet. But it is of course possible that I also missed that call, because the device was on silent again.

only usable with kpn network until March 2025. I returned the package unopened, so don't worry about the star rating. you have to click on something else you can't post a review.
