If you look for the most unique smartphones available in India at the moment, then the CAT S60 has to be right up there. This device does a lot of things, which other smartphones can't even dream about. But is that enough to woo customers, especially when you have a Rs 64,990 price tag

You will never ever worry about what happens to this phone if it takes a fall on the ground, or slips into the pool as you were checking the water's temperature; It is that kind of phone and just the looks of it gives you that kind of confidence, I did take the phone into a pool and could still use...
