The UK-based Bullitt Group, license holder for Land Rover, JCB and Kodak brands for phones and audio products, has launched a new smartphone in India for Rs 64,999, aimed at tapping into the premium ‘rugged’ segment. The Cat S60 — which is the world’s first smartphone with an integrated thermal camera — will be available from tomorrow across high end multi-brand outlets and Amazon India.
The phones will be distributed in India by Brandeyes. Powered by Android Marshmallow operating system, the Caterpillar-branded phone features a 4.7-inch multi-touch display with auto wet finger and glove support, 3,800 mAh battery, underwater 13MP main camera with dual flash and 5MP front facing camera.
The dual SIM 4G phone has a Snapdragon octa-core processor, 3GB RAM and 32GB memory. The US-based Caterpillar is a global leader in the construction and mining equipment space.
Last year, Bullitt had partnered Tata Motors-owned automotive brand Jaguar Land Rover to launch smartphones and accessories. While, Summers did not comment about the expected launch dates of the Land Rover-branded smartphone, she said the company would look at bringing a Kodak-branded smartphone to India soon.
