BUILT TO SURVIVE – THE NEW,
RUGGED CAT S31 SMARTPHONE
Cat Phones introduces the Cat S31 – a resilient
smartphone suited for harsh and rugged environments
and packed with features customers will value.
The new edition to the Cat smartphone family
succeeds the Cat S30 and is fit for a range of
industries, including construction.
Since Cat phones’ customers need a phone
they can rely on, the Cat S31 has been designed
to keep working. Its powerful 4,000mAh battery
is designed to last and its rugged IP68 waterproof
casing makes it a cut above the rest. The smart
phone is dust resistant and drop proof (from 1.8m
onto concrete), as well as an MIL SPEG 810G
phone that handles all elements. Take the S31
everywhere, stay connected and get more done.
According to a study conducted by Cat on
roughly 22,000 Cat phone users, more than
three-quarters (76%) indicated that a long
battery life was essential and 98% considered
it a highly valued key feature. Further, the survey
showed that 76% have damaged their previous mobile
phones and experienced the endless frustration that goes with a damaged p h o n e .
Unsurprisingly, 94% of Cat phone owners value the drop proof feature, while 71% said
that a scratch resistant screen is also essential.
“The Cat S31 represents the
foundation of the Cat smartphone
portfolio with upgrades and
improvements to every feature
we know are important to our
customers. It maintains the leading
rugged credentials our customers
require while benefitting from
improvements in the battery and
screen performance and a better
camera, memory and processor
which together ensures it’s built
to survive.” said Peter Stephens,
CEO of Bullitt Group, global mobile
licensee for Caterpillar.
Rugged and resilient, the Cat S31 is a
tough phone that is guaranteed to keep
going. It builds on Cat phones’ heritage of
creating rugged devices, with its heavy-duty credentials. Meanwhile, its bright 4.7” HD
display is protected by a scratch-resistant Corning® Gorilla® Glass 3 screen which can
easily be read in direct sunlight with a touch screen that can be controlled with wet fingers
and while wearing gloves.
