  • ACTUALLY UNLOCKED AND BETTER THAN ADVERTISED
okay first point this phone is actually unlocked, CAT phones were originally tmobile exclusive phones so it has the logo flash during the launch process and has all the carrier apps but it is unlocked and will be accepted at any carrier i confirmed this deeper in my settings. second point this is running android 11 not android 11 go, so its basically an android smartphone before we went insane with flagship models inside a nostalgic phone that feels healthier to keep around. coming from an iphone XR, the screen/keyboard width + overall thickness of the phone feels like an even tradeoff, about double the thickness and maybe a cm ir so more narrow. and bc capitalism has made us conveniently forget, im going to point out that a 2 RAM phone is the same specs as the iphone 8. which worked PERFECTLY FINE before we updated our phones and let apple gaslight us into thinking we needed 8 RAM and AI hardbaked into the software. is it instantaneous loading? no, but the extra 1-3 seconds gives me a moment to think about wtf im even doing, i dont need a phone that can process faster than my own brain. its perfect for people like me that dont have social media or use a phones fancy flagship features when leaving the house. running it completely de-googled with positive results and will update if my opinion changes. ... show more

  • please please please DO NOT buy this POS phone
Bought to downgrade from a smartphone to a dumbphone (social media detoxing) and had for 3 months before it just stopped working; randomly froze on the home screen, went black, then wouldn't turn on no matter what I did, completely out of nowhere on a full charge. Honestly was probably the best case scenario with this POS phone because it gets dangerously hot when in normal use (had to toss the case I bought for it because I literally BURNED MY HAND ON THE BACK taking it off when it overheated), ridiculously bulky and heavy with no hole to tie charms through, T9 keyboard is nearly unusable & keys double & triple press constantly with no way to fix, camera is like 2 pixels, takes up to 5 minutes to load anything with all the bloatware, won't work with Visible or rideshare/delivery driver apps, battery will last maybe an hour on a full charge, screen is literally too small for the display of most apps (can mostly be fixed, just have to screw around with the developer settings before you can even use it), and good luck setting the side button to do anything as it also double presses & will render whatever function you give it useless. ... show more

  • Great phone for the buck but still has some draw backs
To start out- I seriously love this phone! I use it daily (about 2 months now) and I love the T9 typing on it! Definitely helps me reduce my overall screen time but still be able to access the things I need to access. For example, I have a QR scanner I can use to get do the things I need to. I can also use Whatsapp and can play basic games when I have a passing moment (within reason, like mahjong or Flow). I have it personalized through Nova which I highly recommend since the UI isn't super great. Unfortunately there are some definite flaws. I have to regularly turn on airplane mode because I will randomly stop receiving text messages and it has overheated while being used before on Whatsapp or when my car has gotten too warm/in direct sunlight, which is an issue because we are heading into a texas summer. It's a great phone and I still use it daily but I'm hoping the issues this one has are sorted out in the next model! Definitely a great budget phone! Also, I saw a lot of people saying it wouldn't work with Verizon but I popped in my SIM and it works just fine! ... show more

  • Excellent Device for Less Phone Fixation
Fantastic for someone looking to keep access to essential apps (banking, work apps, etc) but avoiding clutter and phone overuse. I use verizon which it said would not work but figured I would try it out and it works perfectly fine. Very sturdy as I work in a busy environment and have dropped it a few times. Excellent battery life and very simple to learn the functions of, been having a lot of fun learning how to type quickly with T9, but there are options for touchscreen keyboards. For the price, it can't be beat and I would recommend this to anyone looking to get away from typical smartphones but needing the functionality of one. ... show more

  • Know WHAT this is before ordering
On the surface, this phone looks like it would check all of the boxes for a digital detox lifestyle. For the most part - it does. Solidly built, water resistant, and it would appear to be straightforward - but is it? After using for 2 days, I found the phone to be more of a distraction and a detriment then a positive experience. It gives you just enough Android to make you feel that you're getting a complete package, but good luck if you try plugging it into your car - there's no Android auto and that is a huge deal-breaker for me. Additionally, even with the volume turned all the way up, the ringtones are very quiet and easily overlooked. The phone isn't just slow - it's painfully slow. Good luck trying to load anything with it as it takes forever to process. Then there's the issue with storage. Nowhere does it say "hey, you should probably consider getting an SD card before transferring your stuff." You really can't do that because you have to set the phone up first before you can activate storage on the SD card. This means you either screw up your transfer process, or have to omit many items. All in all, if you are looking for a very simple phone - this might be a place to start, but day in and day out use is very frustrating. You can't do everything from the keyboard, so you have to use the touch screen or voice to text. If you know your limitations, I think it could be a good phone for digital detox lifestyle, but don't count on using a day in and day out without running into several frustrations. It's a shame, because I had really high hopes for it. ... show more

  • The CAT S22: Great concept, awful execution.
I love what this phone is trying to be. I don't love what it actually is. I bought this phone to try to "digital detox" and break the doomscrolling cycle, and for that, it's been great. I got a print subscription to the local newspaper, I'm reading books again, and I've broken that conditioned reflex to reach for my phone every time I've got 30 seconds of empty time. I feel lighter and better inside. That said, the reason that this is a 2-star review is that the phone itself kind of sucks. It's a real brick, every bit as heavy as a regular smartphone, and 2-3 times as thick. The Android GO operating system seems badly mated to the physical characteristics of the phone. The physical keypad is not well integrated into the OS, so there isn't that much you can even do with it, so you wind up still using the tiny touchscreen way more than you really want to. Texting with this phone is a nightmare. Remember back in the 2000's, those Verizon flip phones where you could T9 text at light speed using the physical keypad, with pre-AI era yet really smart predictive capabilities where you didn't usually have to type the entire word? Yeah, you won't be getting an experience like that here. The CAT S22 doesn't have a built-in T9 capability. To T9 or ABC text, you will need to download an app. Which is fine in itself; however, the only T9 apps available, such as Traditional T9 (TT9) and Tyni T9, are pretty dumb and don't have good predictive capabilities -- you're going to end up typing out every single letter in every single word, and you have to spell everything PERFECTLY or the dictionary will get lost. To make matters worse, the physical keyboard on the S22 is super glitchy. About 1 in 3 keystrokes, the phone will think I pressed the key several times. I.E. I'll press "3" and I'll get anywhere from 2-4 "3"s (or corresponding letter) in a row. This happens with all the number keys, so it's not just like my phone has one bad key or something. When you combine the unforgiving nature of the available T9 apps with the glitchy keypad, texting becomes just awful. The other options are to use the default Android keyboard, which actually works OK despite being tiny on that little screen, except that it takes up 2/3 of the screen so you can't see what you are writing. Or to use speech-to-text, which I personally don't prefer although on this phone it might be one of the better options. Oh, and did I mention that you get a beep every time you press the numeric keypad, or a vibration if the sound is turned down? And there's no way to disable it, unless you hack into the phone using USB debug with an ADB app. (And even then I only managed to get rid of the vibrate, not the beep -- the code lines I could find that were supposed to disable the beep didn't work.) As far as using other smartphone apps, for the most part you can, but your mileage may vary. I was wanting to use Amazon music for my car rides, and it kind of worked for the first week, then all the songs went gray, and despite multiple uninstalls and reinstalls, it still doesn't work. The camera is functional but not amazing, but you won't be texting any photos you take, because the texting app only allows SMS, with a max file size (~1 MB) that is smaller than the size of photos taken. (Might be able to get around this in camera settings by reducing resolution, but I haven't dug into that.) Sound quality is weak, and the ringer is so quiet you'll miss half the texts that come in (angering your spouse). So, can this phone help you digital detox? Yes. Would I recommend it? No. You're just going to be frustrated all the time, pulling your hair out trying to do basic tasks. Everything about the OS integration on this phone is glitchy and badly executed. It's a shame, because this phone is ALMOST exactly what I was looking for, if the physical design would have just been a little lighter, and the OS integration would have just been better. So close and yet so far. ... show more

  • Don't bother!
The worst phone I've ever used! I've only had it for eight months, and keys are already starting to give out. Every "cool" feature about this phone is done very poorly. The T9 keyboard is badly implemented, you basically have to hit * every time you start typing to actually use they keyboard as you'd expect, there's no way to have the keyboard default to this mode. If you go back to correct a mistake, half the time your cursor will lock back onto the last word you were typing instead of staying where you moved it to. Phone has an SD Card slot, but if you put one in and use it to increase your internal storage- congrats! Now you can no longer take or save any pictures, and any pictures or music you already had on your phone are now gone as far as the phone can tell! The display on the outer screen? Only shows notifications for calls and text messages; no emails, no app messages, nada. And it doesn't even do that right, half the time it'll just pick a random person from my contacts and say I have a message from them, not who actually messaged me. Half the time, if I open the phone too quickly after a alarm or notification, the screen just doesn't light up and completely locks up, requiring a hard reset. ... show more
