They're just your typical Android phones. Nothing special. medium resolution touch screen, a little bit of extra heavy plastic on the case. The usual OEM crapware is permanently installed on the device, and sending analytics back to the mothership.
- PhasmaFelis 7y agoI know the hardware specs are nothing special. I don't need them to be. I'm asking about the Cat-specific features. Ruggedness, waterproofing, extra-long battery life, IR camera--do they work as advertised? Does the extra bulk affect usability? The OEM crapware is an issue, but from a quick google it seems like Cat phones are rootable, yes? So it should be possible to fix that manually.
- Animats 7y agoIf you buy it directly from Catphones, you just get the usual Google crapware, which can be disabled. Plus an "app store", which you don't have to use. I installed F-Droid and removed all the Google apps, and use only F-Droid open source apps.
