Breve Análise do Smartphone CAT S42 – Smartphone robusto, emborrachado e à prova d'água

Trabalhe com um preço mais baixo. O modelo predecessor foi vendido por cerca de 500 euros ($ 590). No entanto, o CAT S42 é duas vezes mais barato. Isso é possível porque a CAT reduziu os custos de produção, especialmente no que diz respeito à tela e à bateria. Leia nossa análise para saber se o smartphone robusto e à prova d'água vale a pena.

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.
Screen flickering / PWM not detected

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 18071 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

Display Response Times

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.
       Response Time Black to White
28 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 11 ms rise
↘ 17 ms fall
The screen shows relatively slow response rates in our tests and may be too slow for gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 67 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (21.6 ms).
       Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
58 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 27 ms rise
↘ 31 ms fall
The screen shows slow response rates in our tests and will be unsatisfactory for gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.2 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 93 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (33.9 ms).

Veredicto - Smartphone robusto com pontos fortes e fracos

In review: CAT S42. Test device provided courtesy of: CAT Phones Germany.
In review: CAT S42. Test device provided courtesy of: CAT Phones Germany.

É uma jogada inteligente que a CAT tenha tornado o S42 mais econômico. Nos últimos anos, a competição no reino dos smartphones robustos aumentou e os smartphones de baixo custo tornaram-se mais poderosos. Porém, por sua vez, os usuários terão que se contentar com uma tela de alta definição e uma bateria menor. 

Para aqueles que pensam que o CAT S41 é a melhor escolha, temos isto a dizer: O CAT S42 é significativamente mais barato, embora o modelo anterior tenha quase dois anos. Além disso, oferece Wi-Fi mais rápido e software moderno. No entanto, pensamos que é uma pena que os botões de navegação físicos tenham sido eliminados. 

Molduras grossas em 2020 não são uma visão bonita. No entanto, o peso não é muito alto para um smartphone robusto nessa faixa de preço. Gostamos do gerenciamento de temperatura e das durações de bateria muito úteis.

Um smartphone robusto e barato com bateria de boa duração, Wi-Fi rápido, baixo nível de desempenho e câmera medíocre: O CAT S42 deixa uma impressão confusa.

O CAT S42 vale a pena para quem procura um smartphone barato que seja capaz de lidar com ambientes difíceis. No entanto, os compradores em potencial devem estar cientes do desempenho medíocre da câmera, da baixa qualidade do som e do baixo desempenho do sistema.

O fabricante deve prestar mais atenção aos patches de segurança porque eles estão desatualizados no momento desta análise. Isso é muito problemático para um dispositivo empresarial como o CAT S42.
