This is CAT’s 5th or fourth generation of devices. You guys should really check out the other offerings. They have more than just tank phones like the s60. The s45 ran a 4k display and a 820 chipset or something like that. It’s nice to see Android authority finally give cat some screen time. They make niche phones that aren’t for the masses and have been doing it for years now. Even though they are primarily sold in Europe doesn’t mean you can’t review them guys!
Cool features. When you say the screen works with gloves, you don’t mean it’s resistive touch, do you? 😕
Thumbs down for calling it Android Poptart which hasn’t been confirmed. AA should be more selective with who they hire.
Garbage phone from a garbage company. Move on, next!!
Oh Android 9.0 is Poptart!!!
PUT ALL THESE FEATURES IN A NORMAL PHONE RIGHT NOW
Oh he’s the dude from soundguys! Your videos are great 😂✋
very overpriced!
Vehicle Diagnostics?
Android P: Android Pop-tart 😱
This review is so bad. This phone is not for the average person. But he’s reviewing it like it is.
That hump is the flir camera. Which a flir camera alone, can cost a couple hundred.
EXPANDABLE MEMORY!?
great for health and safety officers, not for Justin Bieber wannabe
I hear them say Android Poptart? Hmmm…
What? How did they know that P is going to be called poptart?
Good phone
I’m a Carpenter I’ve owned the S60 for 2 years now before that I had multiple now broken Samsung galaxy phones I even learnt how to replace the screens but nothing has broken on my cat S60 I love it and definitely will be buying the s61 the thermal camera has become very handy detecting underfloor heating to helping me find a lost dog I even helped find a lost girl trying to go for swim in the sea the dark
Does this fall apart like the Cat S60 does? With absolutely no tech support like replacing the port covers? Like the Cat S60?
I have the S60
Shame the CPU couldnt be slightly beefier i have minor concerns with how age and 30gb of videos pictures and apps will affect its already not quite snappy performance but otherwise im buying one the moment they hit stores i need a new phone and id rather not buy an intermediate cheap phone
Hmmm… What’s the maximum distance range of the thermal camera where it can detect heat sigmature?
Can I detect gas leaks using thermal camera?
I actually think that is a pretty darn good looking phone. Not everyone finds the ultra-thin, fragile-piece-of-glass aesthetic to be the pinnacle of smartphone design.
It looks beautiful. Not some girly 99% screen ratio like all them ladies phones. It looks manly and tough but still sophisticated. And finally, some decent thickness. I really don’t want a phone as thin as they are nowadays. They feel like ladies watches. And the top notch is excellent engineering, probably a good feature when you try to guide it inside your pocket. So its finally a practical one again. Tools to go. Smartphones have become too much like jewelry for stupid ppl. You carry around this square plate thats main feature is that itself looks good. Smart people like to have this multitool that does everything. And this one looks good too. Finally I found something good. I already was afraid that I am stuck to my htc 10 for good. Its like the old times when the first pocket pcs came. First HTC phones did not look very slim either, but were packed with sensors and functions. Even a good camera was a great feature back then. Thats what I like about it. That phone enchances a human being, giving one powers not just to talk so that they can be heard all over world, but also perception of thermal vision, distance measurement and air analysis. Popular flagship phones give ppl just more possibilities to waste time looking good. You pick yours. I ‘ll pick mine.
Its all about functionality. By they time they actually make it available in Canada it will be outdated.… near obsolete.
The “hump” helps me hold it securely, in landscape mode. It really is a good phone for work and my clients really like thermal images and air quality screenshots attached to their invoices. It pays for itself, if you know what you’re doing.
Is the resolution on the s61 much more noticeable than the s60 and is it worth the upgrade even though I own the s60 ?
I think this an ok phone. But I’m soooo tired of them saying, Oh, we will bring an update to this phone soon. Aaaaand… well, you never do. The concept is nice, but the software needs to be running the latest and greatest. Just saying.
Love my 61.
i can see this phone being put to better use in the hands of someone who isnt a damn android authority geek. but anyone will be somewhat annoyed with the laggy chipset.
Poptel P60 very cheap with the real rugged features. I am looking for your review on the channel.
Yeah poptart
See that Why I got the Cat S60 Tough Military Phone for Now, I get the S120 When it comes Out,
I’m thinking to get one as “upgrade” from razer phone
I wouldn’t get this one. Serious issue’s — mainly with charging. @VDxw
Cat are refusing to replace my phone — Cat S61. Less than 6 months —
charging issue’s. Calls drop out. Poor phone signal. Lost photos. Screen
unresponsive. Help centre staffed by agency when I phoned them (at a
cost of £15 — premium rate) he said basically he was unable to help! I’m
left with a £800 6 month old phone which is unreliable.
