Doogee S40 Pro - painting over rust
How often smartphone manufacturers use the same design in several smartphones at once, only slightly changing their specifications. Such an expansion of the assortment is logical given the relevance of the exterior and its high assessment by the audience. Unfortunately, the hero of today's hero has already become outdated both externally and internally, so improved performance is unlikely to affect his popularity.
As mentioned above, the phone looks pretty mediocre. On the positive side, we note a dual camera, a fingerprint sensor and catchy colors of the back panel. The huge dimensions of the case, the large frames of the 5.5-inch display cannot be justified even if the device belongs to the segment of protected IP68 smartphones. The screen quality is also not happy. The brightness and contrast of the IPS panel is not enough for direct sunlight, the resolution of 960x480 pixels will not allow you to enjoy HD video on Youtube, and the clarity of the picture is generally low.
But with such an IPS-screen, the Mediatek Helio A25 processor , 4GB of RAM and the PowerVR GE 8320 video adapter perform well. Android Q will delight you with a smooth interface, and most demanding games feel good at low-medium graphics settings. In addition, the budget device is equipped with as much as 64GB of ROM and a microSD card slot . As a result, there are no problems with a lack of memory, and it turns out the time to while away with gaming applications.
The main pair of cameras ( eight and five megapixel sensors ) is very simple. There is no need to dream of shooting in the evening, even with a slight deterioration in lighting, noise appears, and the amount of detail decreases significantly. Therefore, you will have to use photo modules only for capturing documents, and a 5-megapixel front photosensor - to replace the mirror. Autonomy is one of the essential advantages of the gadget. The 4650mAh battery will last for a couple of days of active use of the unit, it's a pity that the battery charges slowly. It's also hard to miss the presence of NFC contactless payments. Thus, the device gives the impression of a balanced, but still outdated Android smartphone, which today has too many worthy opponents.
