CAT B35

Alright, so here's the deal with the CAT B35: it's kind of like a throwback to those rugged phones from back in the day, but with a few modern twists. If you're all about a phone that can take a beating, this one's right up your alley. It's got that military-grade toughness, so dropping it or getting it wet won't have you panicking. However, don’t expect it to do any smartphone magic tricks. It's really just a basic phone with a solid build. Perfect if you need something durable and don’t care about the bells and whistles.

The battery life is a big win here. The CAT B35 can last for days on a single charge, which feels like a rare find these days. You’re not gonna be addicted to checking it every five minutes since it doesn’t have the flashy apps to keep you glued. It’s refreshing to not worry about charging every night. But, if you’re someone who loves streaming, gaming, and all that jazz, this might feel like being stuck in the stone age.

One thing I found a bit annoying was the speed. It runs on KaiOS, which is trying to be a smart OS for dumb phones, but it feels more like an old car struggling to hit the highway. Everything takes a beat longer than you’d want. Sure, it’s got Google Assistant, Maps, and even YouTube, but don't expect to be breezing through them. If patience isn’t your strong suit, this could get on your nerves.

Call quality is pretty solid, which I guess should be a given since it’s a phone first and foremost. The buttons are nice and clicky, too, so texting, while a bit tedious without a touchscreen, is reliable. It’s like a blast from the past with a slightly modern edge. For those who just want to make calls, maybe send a text or two, it does the job without any fuss.

In the end, the CAT B35 is like that trusty old pickup truck that just keeps going. It’s not fast, it’s not fancy, but it’s dependable. If you’re looking for durability over digital dazzle, it’s worth a shot. Just be sure you’re okay with leaving behind the smartphone era because this isn’t gonna bring those features to the table. For some folks, though, that’s exactly the charm. It’s simplicity wrapped in armor.
