Caterpillar CAT B40 all carriers - Mobile Phone, Black

Bought this phone for my mom to replace her Nokia. She loves it. It's easy to use and comfy to hold. She loves the digger revving sound when you turn it off and on. Has good sound and easy to understand workings. Really nice phone. It is chunky but not too big.

I am a fan of non-smart phones - I don't really bother with social media, have a proper camera already and rarely need any other apps, so the search for the ideal 'dumb' phone started this year and I thought this would be it. On the face of it, it is perfect. It is rugged, has dual sim slots, 4G for better call quality, a memory card slot for mp3s, has decent bluetooth and (at last!) USB-C. It also has some genuinely useful features such as a powerful torch. Sadly a few things let it down and I, reluctantly, returned mine: 1) No T9 auto predicate dictionary for texting - Whilst happy to text using a keypad, no T9 dictionary means this is really, really, slow. 2) Charging and headphone sockets on the side not the top or bottom - This is a problem - especially if you want to use your phone to listen to MP3s. The headphone socket on the side means the headphone's cable sticks out and makes it almost unpocketable. Same when you want to charge it up - not quite as bad, but still awkward. 3) No built in web browser - Whilst I do not need apps and the like on my day to day phone, a super-simple web browser (Opera?) would have meant really simple tasks such as a quick weather check would have been possible. This phone doesn't have that feature which is a shame as it has 4G for fast browsing. If you can get around these issues, this may well be the perfect non-smart phone - a solid 4 stars, therefore.

This was brought for my father who is a farmer. Very durable, easy to use & navigate around. Simple enough for someone who isn’t a fan of technology.

My husband loves this phone as it does everything he needs it to do and is simple to work. However it doesn’t stay connected to his vehicle and despite following instructions to pair, within a short space of time the connection is lost again. We returned the first one as faulty because it also did this. Now think it may be a problem with this model.

I ordered this for my father who is a famer and needed a robust phone. Unfortunately the battery ceased charging after the first couple of weeks rendering it useless. Returned and ordered a replacement however the second phone did the same thing. Wouldn't recommend.

Exactly as pictured & described

Good phone with hidden function. This I don't understand why Opera mini is hidden. That is the most criticism for this phone, but it have it. It can be found in shortcuts not in menu.

Bought as a strictly utilitarian phone, to make phone calls or text only. It was certainly chunky and reminiscent of the mobile I had in the 1990s. Sadly, I found operating it hard work and sending a text message difficult, to the extent I gave up on it. Others may find it easier.
