S61's indoor air quality sensor will monitor the environment it's in. The Air app will prompt you to open a window or grab some fresh air if an unhealthy level of VOCs has been detected. Common sources of VOC’s include paints, solvents, carpets, furniture, cleaning products and even humans. It can also be used to provide temperature and humidity readings, useful for example, for rooms without an extractor fan and where opening a window alone doesn't always completely remove all the moisture, or to indicate when a freshly plastered wall is dry and ready to paint.  • Large 4 500 mAh capacity battery, QC4.0 compatible • 16 MP rear camera, 8MP front camera, 4K video • 4 GB RAM, 64 GB ROM (expandable with MicroSD) • 2.2 GHz Octa-core processor (Qualcomm Snapdragon 630) • LTE Cat 13, VoLTE, VoWiFi • Enhanced GPS, BT5.0, NFC, dual band WiFi (2.4GHz/5GHz) • Curated app catalogue for rugged device users Cat S61 key features • Leading rugged credentials o Aluminium reinforced die-cast frame o MIL Spec 810G o Built to survive repeated drop tests onto concrete from 1,8 m o Ingress Protection (IP68 &IP69) dustproof, built to withstand steam, high water pressure, and waterproof, tested in water up to 3 m deep for 1 hour o Screen protected by the latest Corning® Gorilla® Glass 5 • FLIR Thermal camera: Lepton o Increase measurable scene temperature range -20°C to 400°C o Enhanced MyFLIR app o Improved FLIR MSX image resolution • Laser assisted area and distance measure, up to 8 m • VOC indoor air quality meter and humidity sensor • Android™ Oreo (with upgrade to P) • 5.2” FHD bright display, optimised for outdoor use o Touch screen can be controlled with gloves on or with wet fingers
