Decent phone. As in, you can make calls from it, and it has a very good battery life. It can also take a beating, is somewhat waterproof and you can take pictures reminding you of how awesome camera phones were in 2009.

As a smartphone, it's somewhat mediocre, but if you don't install a shitload of apps and use a web browser it'll get things done. And this phone is about you getting things done. It's a tool. And a good one at that.

Go play with a Samsung if you want a new toy.

use the CAT S42 now for 5 years and it runs and runs and runs. The battery is great, with normal phone and text use and a little surfing on the net, it lasts 3 days.
Every now and then it hangs up and a restart is necessary, but that's ok it happend not so often. It's waterproof and an outdoor phone that's why I bought it and so far I haven't been disappointed

one of rhe nicest phones I have. Really water proof, feels rugged. bright screen, loud enough speaker. good grip. chunky, bur that is a statement. good solid buttons at the side and handy fast access button in in a stylish copper color. Quite satisfied. thw only negative is thatbthere is a bug when streaming Amazon music over bluetooth. all other apps like Spotify stream well.

A, 07 Jul 2020I have an S41 and I get 3-4 days with around 1 hour of talk time per day. I don't know ho... moresadly.. my motheršŸ¤— talks to her sister (my aunt) for about an hour.. just on one call.
so calls plus youtube or Sudoku and music would mean that it would laat lesser than her Samsung A50 battery (she is presently using A50)

Its overall a weaker phone which means it will use less power. Hard to tell exactly how much until all specifications are released however.

I don't know how much you use your phone but the fact is that the S42 has a smaller battery so it can't last as long as an S41.

Why would anyone buy this phone, let alone wait for it? It's a successor to the S41 but worse in every single way. Just get the old one.
