Video: Cat B15 Smart Phone Tested By High Dive, Tractor Tread

Caterpillar doesn't want to worry about dropping the Cat B15 smart phone, and the latest Built For It Trial video -- "Gravity" -- is designed to see if the construction-equipment maker's phone is as tough as its earthmovers. "Gravity" opens with a Cat MH3049 Material Handler dropping a B15 phone into a pool of water from 35 feet. Then, a Cat 277D Multi Terrain Loader crawls over a pavement made of 600 B15 phones. Watch the video to see how the phones fared.
