Cat S60 unveiled as ‘most waterproof smartphone’, first to integrate thermal camera
In recent months, even years, it started to feel like all rugged gadgets were the same, kind of how most mainstream flagship Android phones share their super-high-end specifications.

Pocketnow Weekly 053: HTCs are getting smaller, and Lumias are getting laaaaaarger
Never let it be said that Multimedia Manager Jaime Rivera isn’t a trouper. In the hot Honduras heat, with no power and no A/C (and, incidentally, no shirt), he still manages to show up on-time to the Pocketnow Weekly podcast. That right there is some broadcast heroism, folks. No matter what Taylor Martin’s new-office excuses are. But that’s not what we’re here to talk about. No, we’re about a week overdue for an audio-only examination of Nokia’s newest flagship, the Lumia 1020: we’ll cover it’s high, low, and so-so points, and debate just how ...

CAT B15 unboxing (Video)
