Manual of product S31
Editorial note
The CAT S31 stands out for its robustness and durability, compliant with military standards MIL-STD-810G, making it an ideal choice for tough environments. Its IP68 protection against water and dust reinforces this impression of solidity. With a 4000 mAh battery, this smartphone ensures extended battery life, allowing users to stay connected throughout the day without worrying about frequent recharging. However, the product also has some limitations. The screen resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels may disappoint users seeking superior display quality, especially at a time when standards are higher. Additionally, with only 2 GB of RAM, the CAT S31 may show signs of slowing down when running multiple applications simultaneously. The internal storage capacity of 16 GB is also relatively low, particularly for users wanting to store many multimedia files. In terms of features, although the smartphone offers 4G connectivity and Bluetooth 4.1, the absence of certain options like FM radio and contactless payment could frustrate some users. The 2 MP front camera, on the other hand, will not meet the expectations of those looking for high-quality selfies. In summary, the CAT S31 provides a satisfactory user experience with many strengths, but its limitations in performance and features may make it less attractive to some.Score details
