Hey there,
I am thinking about buying the Cat B40 feature phone.
My gut feeling tells me that since it does not run either iOS or Android, is a relatively small company in the data/tech sector, and generally it's literally just a feature phone with barely any... well, features, let alone any that would make my data valuable, it should not be profitable for anyone to harvest any data or spy on me. But I realize that's prejudice and I have nothing to back that gut feeling up, and hell, they could still track my location or whatever.
I can find no real information on which operating system runs on the thing, let alone what it can or cannot do software-wise. Does anyone have any information on that thing?
In the user opinions and reviews section at gsmarena, someone said that the B35 uses Kai OS. So probably the same OS for the B40.
Should be more private than a iOS or Android phone just for the fact that's a "dumb" phone. No wireless no GPS. Basically just phone calls and SMS. I don't know if there's anything more privacy friendly than that out there.
gsmarena says that it doesn't have GPS. The official site doesn't mention it either.
The best part is "Operating system: Proprietary". Strange that they don't have a name for it...
