Having just run over my Samsung with the tractor, and my tiny Experia Compact's battery died (again) getting this is a no brainer if you work outside. Bulky can be a pro. No more thinking "Wait, have I got my phone?" - the sheer weight of it in your pocket confirms you have, no more patting yourself down to check.
5:03 Best part about the T9 keyboard. I didn't know such a thing existed for this (the built in one only shows suggestions, requiring tapping on them).
Ive been watching your videos about the s22 the past few days, so in depth. And now just waiting for the device I ordered from Amazon US to be delivered here to NZ, free shipping. So excited to take back my life :D
This was a great video, answered a lot of questions i had about the phone! And you got straight to the point. You got yourself a new subscriber. And i ordered the phone, cant wait to try it out
What can I say? After disabling most privacy invading software (it will not allow you to disable Google Play Services), I mowed fields. These grounds are very uneven and shake your guts bad. The cell phone survived- absolutely no ghost clicking. I am impressed- this has become my daily phone. I might use my smart phone on the freeway. Maybe, but I was never into all that extra stuff.
My old phone broke a month ago and I haven't been using anything since, so I feel my experience is already different then the norm. I also grew up in the era of when phone cameras and phones in general looked like this, so the nostalgia factor plus being able to use modern apps sounds like a huge win. I also typically play games on my 3ds or computer so the small amount of storage wouldnt be too bad I think.
Such a thorough, well thought out video. Thanks so much! I decided this is the perfect phone for my tween. I also compared the Jelly Star to this phone; however you can't beat the price for the CAT S22. Plus this phone won't encourage excessive screen time which is what we are looking for.
Not to be a negative Nancy, but the main reason why the CAT22 is so cheap now is bcuz the company (Bullitt) who made CAT phones shutdown & will no longer be able to update the firmware on CAT cell phones. I'm sure you'll still get your money's worth & use for whoever you bought the phone for. Just thought I'd let you know in case you're deciding to maybe buy another one, that's all. +Peace Funk & Rock n' Roll 4 Your Soul My Friend+ 🤘😜🤘
Ha, thanks! There are a few others on the channel too, good to be meeting some fellow Fulham fans! Going to try the CAT with the new season tickets and make a video of that! ⚽️
It emphasizes the phone over the smart. Smart is there if you must use it, but it's so tiny you'll only do what's essential. And it's very rugged. Given that it has a Wi-Fi hotspot, you can keep your big phone with you for those occasions you need it, and still have an Internet connection even though your SIM card is in the S22.
Be mindful of the locale you're getting the phone with. I was sent a UK version from the German (!) Amazon store, and it had only English Spanish and French locale. Android doesn't let you just install other languages, and that means you also can't use T9 in other languages (you have to choose the Kika keyboard in settings, which will give you only those languages for T9 that came preinstalled - in fact, you can only type numbers on the hardware keys when e.g. the google board is enabled). I had to go through a lot of very technical fiddling, including adb, to get the German locale and T9 that I had signed up for in the first place (but I preferred that to sending it back).
Right On! Thanks for giving us an honest & straight forward proper review that are few & far between today. Keep On Keepin' On! ++Peace Funk & Rock n' Roll 4 Your Soul My Friend++ 🤘😜🤘
really well rounded video! just got my cat s22 and I'm finishing setting it up! I'm sadly having trouble with making my SD Card work with apps but I've been very optimistic.
I have talked to you before and now that I have this phone I been using it for a while now and I love it also the best part about the phone is if your touch screen won't work you got a keypad lol
Awesome review! I'm really considering getting one of these after my Iphone was stolen in London, which luckily i managed to recover! But looking to get something that doesn't have all my finance apps but still the practicality of apps like whatsapp. Just one question, would my sim card used for my Iphone 14 fit into the cat? Thanks again and great video!
Excellent review, big thank you!!!! I have a question for you as you are very familiar with this phone.....Can you actually root it and remove certain apps? Could you please make a video????thank you, thank you........best wishes
I have the Emporia, it is goof for calls and watts app. 4G works fine and WiFi. I was disappointed with BT, unreliable. It has storage but I was unable to use or see it. SMS fine. Internet is meh. The phone looks gorgeous, slim and light. Will see when I get the Cat. Emporia geared towards seniors.
@@ataboyboyboy8895 Ooh, I myself are considering getting the emporia touchsmart 2. Is it possible to install your own apk’s and 3rd party launchers on it? And with unreliable bluetooth, do you mean that it disconnects often?
The emporia in my opinion is garbage. Have the Touch smart 1...WhatsApp has a setup problem...with the wrong date (the date isn't wrong). I try to update the firmware...last one ist from years ago...no update available. You can install apps from apkpure but everything feels not really good. Bought the from years ago for small price from Amazon Warehouse...I think it was about 30€...so I didn't send it back because I thought in the future this thing will work...this phone is just a drawer device. Makes no fun...feels cheap...has fingerprints all over since the first touch... Maybe the second generation is better...but I don't think so. Ps: at the beginning WhatsApp worked...not good but it worked...today no more. Same as many people report from the "Funker E450 max" on Amazon. Other than the Cat, emporia is a more or less closed android system. It is not like a normal android you know from an android smartphone (or from the Cat s22). For example you can't deinstall the preinstalled apps like the calendar or whatsapp
Hi mate - does it support Vodafone in the UK? I saw some reviews on Amazon stating that the phone does not work on Vodafone network and stopped working after a few days when a Vodafone SIM was inserted into it.
Hi mate, do you know how I can change the external display font color? Not the wallpaper, just the font color, because sometimes the white text is not so readable for me
Now that I've watched this review I'd have bought it instead of the Nokia 2780 I bought 6 weeks back.. For the same price, the Nokia has no touch screen, so texting is a big big pain.. I would have no prob with the dimensions of the CAT as the ruggedness makes it worth it.. The Nokia shows an earlier time on the front screen than the correct time on the inside screen (the old one then corrected on the front).. Navigating through 'settings' is irritating as well..The Nokia is OK. But I had no idea there was a flip WITH touchscreen.. You live and learn..btw: I'm typing this on a very nice functioning Lenovo Slim 3 chrome 14" I bought 4 weeks back. (I ruined my 5 yr old HP 14" chrome with a lot of spilled water !

hi there, really enjoyed the review. do you have any recomendadation on a phone almost like this but with nfc google wallet, and perhaps a finger print ?
Hmm, I mean, are you looking for a flip phone? I've not tried them yet (waiting on an order, but the Japanese/Korean Android 11/12 flips seem to have what you need).
The texting function is a nightmare, there is no way to use physical keypad for texting, just speach to text, wich might be good for english speeking but for me as german, i got a problem. It came with english and french preset.The speed while using it is decreasing in a matter of month even i got 50% of storage not used. Now like 6 month after , it is constantly turning on and off with the result ending in factory restore menu. That will kill most of your apps,fotos and keep the google back up data unharmed(thank god) all my contacts still there but whats app and all the other apps , gone.

Hi thanks for the amazing video - definitely interested in this phone but am a bit worried about your Spotify comments - what does it mean about only playing non-copyrighted music? Do copyright songs not play? What about podcasts? One more question is whether I can put an old iPhone 7 giff-gaff Sim card in? Thanks so much
Heyaaa, Ahh, that's my bad! Nope, all songs (and audio books/podcasts etc) from Spotify play as expected and as they should. The copyrighted comment was for my TH-cam and the fact that my video is then flagged as having copyrighted content, so very much a dull back end TH-cam thing I've pushed on the viewers! 😂 What size is the sim card? If it's a nano, which I think the iPhone 7 is, then it will work fine!
Actually I need a phone like this because this one is really addictive. I'm not even kidding. So as you done a series of feature phone , which is the best phn? 😊 I want to use WhatsApp only (primarily) . I would have chose this device , but it's really chunky 😢 So , Any genuine suggestions 😊❤
I'm currently looking as well! I wanna comment so I can also see answers under your comment. If I were to give you another option, maybe the Nokia 2780.
I’ve been really considering this phone. But the down size is just the screen size. If they could just make it a little bit bigger I would totally get this.
Hello! I've not been able to find an answer elsewhere, hoping you can help! I really want to be able to turn off vibrate on the phone but still get a noise for notifications. I have toggled off vibrate in the apps themselves and in settings and advanced settings, but it won't stop! My options are to mute all notifications entirely or else deal with the vibrate. Is there any way around this?? Thank you in advance!
I am trying to find an answer out for this, I've not been able to yet but am still giving it a go! Will come back to you if I can find a definitive answer.
Yes indeed I have questions. I have a secondary service, phone service for only $5 bucks a month. You never know when your main phone is gonna be stolen, broken or simply stop working. With that being said. Extreme heat or cold damage everything. I have used old phones for this secondary service and I keep them in my car most of the time. I noticed the batteries die faster specially for being old used phones. Anyways. This phone being rugged gonna endure extreme heat and cold? The site doesn't mention anything about it. Any advice or experience sharing would be great. Thanks.
Found your channel about a month ago. Ended back here from Reddit and looking at dumb phones. My only problem, is this phone going to work at Craven Cottage with the digital season ticket? COYW!
I think I’ve found my favourite comment ever! 😂 I’ve always wondered if anyone would notice I always look at Fulham stuff…bliss! That gives me a good idea for a video…coming to my channel when the season starts! COYW (and fingers crossed the return of Sess is as successful as we all want it to be!)
@@DumbphonesUKI had to double take when you pulled up Fulham Twitter! Instantly, you had a new subscriber. It would be great to see if it works in the turnstile. Where do you sit in the ground? Also, the announcement of Sess made my day yesterday. It’s been a rough summer losing Palhinha 😂
hi, just wondering how are the frequency of updates be it security/android go? i saw on a previous video of yours in the comments that it wouldnt continue to get updated
I had same problem. It is network issue. I tried every provider's SIM in my country, and one of them was ok. Since then I have used my S22 on that network.
Nah, it's at best 2-3 days, but that's with minimal use. It could be better, but with the screen size I 100% use it less, so it lasts that little bit longer.
hi! English is not my native language so if you mentioned it in the video I have not been able to understand it, can I use the mobile keyboard in WhatsApp or does it have to be the small keyboard that comes up on the screen? Thank you!!!💞
Hello 1.) what about phone radiation level ?? 2.) some reported the phone heats up a lot very soon & battery also drains out quickly ?? 3.) this CAT S22 is already nearly 4yr old model. what about Its OS Android 11 Go ?? is it future safe for coming 2-4 years from now !!
My global unlocked CAT S22 Flip 4G phone has all SIM voice call disabled after my telco operator just retired all 3G networks in my country. CAT S22 Flip has no VoLTE despite 4G. Therefore, it is a doomed phone if your telco is expected to retire 3G networks. VoLTE is the real 4G.
I hope you're doing well! I'm a video editor and I recently came across your TH-cam channel. I'm really impressed with your content and the value you provide to your audience.I wanted to offer my services to help you with video editing, so you can focus more on creating great content.
I guess it's a lifestyle choice, right? Some people love having a smartphone (I used to be one!) but actually I've started to grow tired of being connected 24/7 so am looking at alternatives. What phone you rocking at the moment?
Like saying people couldn't handle smoking addiction in the 60s. It's just the norm. Especially for young people, they only know a world full of smartphones and it is easy to get caught up in them. I don't think it's sad to see your own weakness and act upon it to improve your life.
Best review for this phone. Most review put it down for stupid reasons, they don’t understand how this phone can be used.
That’s really kind, thanks for the lovely comment! 🙏
The best phone I've bought in years. Very happy with him. Quite a tool.

Nope it doesn't. It comes with a 3.5 aux to USB-C connector in the box.

Nah, it's at best 2-3 days, but that's with minimal use. It could be better, but with the screen size I 100% use it less, so it lasts that little bit longer.
That is not a dumb phone
💯 I cover that in the video, I’ve labelled it a ‘transition device’ that seems fairer.
hi! English is not my native language so if you mentioned it in the video I have not been able to understand it, can I use the mobile keyboard in WhatsApp or does it have to be the small keyboard that comes up on the screen?
Thank you!!!💞
I'm a dedicated flip phone owner, there's nothing dumb about flip phones, the only problem is the screen is small compared to a smart phone.
You are 100% correct! TBF, I think about the name of my channel almost daily and how it's probs a little wrong! 😂
Hello
1.) what about phone radiation level ??
2.) some reported the phone heats up a lot very soon & battery also drains out quickly ??
3.) this CAT S22 is already nearly 4yr old model. what about Its OS Android 11 Go ?? is it future safe for coming 2-4 years from now !!
My global unlocked CAT S22 Flip 4G phone has all SIM voice call disabled after my telco operator just retired all 3G networks in my country.
CAT S22 Flip has no VoLTE despite 4G. Therefore, it is a doomed phone if your telco is expected to retire 3G networks. VoLTE is the real 4G.
I hope you're doing well! I'm a video editor and I recently came across your TH-cam channel. I'm really impressed with your content and the value you provide to your audience.I wanted to offer my services to help you with video editing, so you can focus more on creating great content.
Bruh, at least edit the ChatGPT response so that it’s not blatantly obvious 😂

So sad. Some people can't handle modern technology and have to get a so called dumb phone. ☹️
I guess it's a lifestyle choice, right? Some people love having a smartphone (I used to be one!) but actually I've started to grow tired of being connected 24/7 so am looking at alternatives. What phone you rocking at the moment?
Like saying people couldn't handle smoking addiction in the 60s. It's just the norm. Especially for young people, they only know a world full of smartphones and it is easy to get caught up in them.
I don't think it's sad to see your own weakness and act upon it to improve your life.
What's really sad is the amount of people I see fiending on their smart phones like junkies.
Fantastic review , very detailed and covering all the practical usage .
