That being said, if you’re in the market for a ruggedised device, then the CAT S42 will be available from Telstra through their small to large business users with plan starting at $18 a month over a 24 month period, $36 for 12-month payment plans + monthly plan costs on top of this, alongside retail partner, Harvey Norman, for $439 outright.

CAT S42 smartphone review
Source: Android Guys EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
I only spent a few days with the CAT S42 as my primary device and I’ll admit that I was not only pleasantly surprised if not impressed with it. The phone does many things well. Especially when you consider the retail price is only $299. Battery life is its strongest attribute along with its physical durability. I didn’t purposely drop the phone but the CAT website boasts it will survive a six-foot drop on steel. I didn’t test its waterproof rating either. The IP68 rating indicates it will survive prolonged submersion in water beyond one meter.

70% The Cat S42 Is Exactly What A Rugged Smartphone Should Be

Whether you should buy this phone is trickier than most other phones. If you're an independent contractor or own a construction or similar business, yes, this makes sense. If you work for someone else, the question shouldn't be whether you buy this phone but whether your company does.

90% Cat S42 Rugged Smartphone review
Source: Techradar EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
Despite looking the part and being suitably robust, the S42 doesn’t sport the hardware to justify its price point. It’s short on memory, storage and video resolution. But the screen is decent quality, and the Cat applications are well designed.

80% Cat S42 review: an extra rugged phone for an affordable price
Source: T3 EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
The Cat S42 just has two real selling points – the ability to withstand drops, heat, cold, water, dust and more besides; and how easy it is to clean. If those would be big benefits for you, then the Cat S42 is one of the cheapest and most appealing rugged phones currently on the market.

Device review: Cat S42 – low specs, high durability
Source: What Mobile EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
The S42 should find a home in many industries, especially at Cat’s cheapest launch price yet. While it’s missing the performance power of non-rugged phones in its price point, and the fancier abilities of pricier, more specialised rugged devices, it’s still a solid performer that you would have to try very hard to break. It’ll last through a day’s consistent user, and the camera is good enough to do the jobs it will need to do.
