Cat B15 Smartphone.

This phone was MADE for my hubby – or so he thinks! He loves it and has hardly set it down over the last 2 weeks.

The Cat B15 smartphone was on his ‘wish list’ for some time. My man would ‘research’ items, basically, this means he reads every article ever written and every review published before he chooses any gadget!

He has concluded that the Cat B15 couldn’t possibly be any better. The phone has a certain ‘rugged’ look, therefore maybe appealing to men rather than women, although this phone would suit anyone. It will survive the once fatal ‘drop’ and I know I have dropped several phones in the past and had to purchase new ones. Aside from this quality, the B15 will also survive cold and wet conditions. I love this idea, as I have also previously dropped phones into the kitchen sink and down the toilet!!

This phone has an aluminium body encased in rubber. Despite this, I can easily access the ports for micro SD cards, battery and SIM cards. This was impressive as I have tried good quality phone cases and although shock, dust and wet finger proof, this left them very difficult to open up. The Cat B15 has a sliding latch system which works well.

Caterpillar is well known to be reliable and trustworthy and this phone is no exception.

‘Reliable: Whether it’s a winter ski holiday or a raucous festive party, this rugged phone won’t let you down. With the Caterpillar brand heritage, the Cat B15 combines manly design with all the features needed to withstand the rigors of an active lifestyle.

Made tough: Boasting a 4-inch gorilla glass screen, silver anodized aluminum and shock absorbent rubber means it can easily withstand knocks and scrapes – even surviving a 1.8m drop.

Can handle the cold & wet: The Cat B15 is the ultimate winter phone, able to withstand being submerged in up to one meter of water for 30 minutes – the wet finger tracking makes use quick & easy’. (Caterpillar)

If you are looking for the perfect present this Christmas for your outdoor man or even just a fool-proof phone for a busy woman, the Cat B15 is just what you need.
