Known more for their rugged construction site machines and clothing line, Caterpillar has just revealed a tough mobile phone called the CAT B100 which you can safely bring to the construction site. Measuring 123 x 56 x 17.5mm, the phone looks more like a brick than a normal mobile phone and tough enough to hammer nails with. The CAT B100 is IP67 and MIL 810G certified so it can handle dunking into water, drops, extreme temperatures and quite a lot of things that your average mobile phone wouldn't be able to take. Other tech specs include a 2.2-inch display with 240 x 320 pixel resolution, a 3MP rear camera, microSD support up to 32GB and a more robust custom operating system. Weighing in at 136g this isn't the phone you want to send SMS, check emails or play games with but it is perfect for when you need a truly tough mobile phone. No news on pricing or Malaysia release dates but it should reach us sometime between Q1 and Q2 of 2014.
