There are smartphones that are certainly not for all audiences. Rather, they are focused on meeting very specific needs. We refer to the so-called ruggedized mobiles. Precisely Doogee is one of the manufacturers that has a line of equipment capable of withstanding the most difficult conditions. And the Doogee S68 Pro is one of the devices best prepared to withstand from shocks to extreme temperatures, or even dives.

Design of the Doogee S68 Pro: Doogee S68 Pro, analysis of an “off-road” that can handle almost everything

To begin with, it must be said that in these types of phones we must forget about many of the design trends, which characterize most terminals that flood any online store, such as thinness. This Doogee smartphone is an off-road device that has a profile of 16.45 millimeters and a weight of around 300 grams. It also comes with reinforced corners and sides made from a titanium-aluminum alloy. The rear is “fortified” by a surface covered with rubber, to provide greater robustness.

With military certificate

The exterior adopts the MIL-STD-810G military resistance certification, which guarantees that it is prepared to withstand all types of shocks, drops and extreme temperatures.

As you can see, the Doogee S68 Pro has nothing conventional. The exterior adopts the MIL-STD-810G military resistance certification , which guarantees that it is prepared to withstand all kinds of shocks, such as falls from up to 1.5 meters in height , as well as extreme temperatures that can vary from -40º to + 60º C. To this must be added that thanks to certifications such as IP68 and IP69K , it can withstand inclement weather and a water immersion of up to 1.5 meters deep for a maximum of 30 minutes.

Arrangement of ports and controls

If we look at the left side, we will see an access to the SIM tray that we can use with microSD cards of up to 128 GB . In addition, a customizable button with a red border can be seen , which can be used to launch a specific application. On the right side, we have the sound volume controls, and the button to turn the screen off and on. At the base, behind a cover, is the USB-C port , and next to it a microphone for calls. The upper part is completely “clean”. On the front, at the top, we have the headset for calls and the camera for selfies.

FHD + display

Now let’s see the screen of this Doogee S68 Pro, which has a “notch”, generous frames and double Gorilla Glass 4 protection to give it greater protection. Its 5.9-inch IPS panel boasts FHD + resolution (1080 x 2280 pixels) and 428PPI. The tactile response is more than acceptable. The “only” thing that we see on this screen is that it gets dirty easily. It does not lack a night mode and a system that will allow you to “match the upper frame” or keep the notch. To take screenshots you only have to slide three fingers at the same time on the panel.

Octa-Core CPU Hardware

At the hardware level, this Doogee mobile bets on a Mediatek Helio P70 processor, where the presence of artificial intelligence stands out. This chip is dressed with eight cores , divided into four Cortex A73 cores that run at 2.0 GHz, and another four Cortex A53 cores also at 2.0 GHz. In the graphic section, it comes equipped with an ARM Mali-G72-MP2 , which works at a maximum frequency of 700MHz. To the above we must add a 6 GB RAM memory. For storage, a “space” of 128 GB has been chosen , which we can expand if necessary with micro SD, as we discussed earlier.

Triple rear camera

In the photographic section, its triple rear camera stands out.

The rear cameras give the impression of being very exposed. At the back, a “photographic frame” has been placed that apart from the dual flash with color temperature, we will have at our disposal three lenses: a main camera with a 21 MP Sony sensor, a 130º wide angle of 8 megapixels and a telephoto camera also 8 MP. You can record videos at FHD quality, and you will have among other functions, with three camera speeds, portrait mode, a wide variety of color filters, and even a camera mode to scan barcodes or QR.

Fingerprint reader and facial recognition

Under the cameras it brings a fingerprint reader with easy access , which in just 0.2 seconds will allow you to unlock the terminal. On the other hand, the front sensor that bears Samsung’s signature would be 16 MP , with an angle of 80 degrees, and a facial recognition system , which offers you the possibility of accessing the mobile safely when you cannot use your hands.

Large capacity battery in the Doogee S68 Pro

Also comment that the battery of this Doogee S68 Pro would be 6,300 mAh capacity , that if we stick to what the Chinese manufacturer tells us, it will allow us to talk non-stop for 80 hours, play videos on YouTube for almost 50 hours or be playing all day. A 24W charger has been included that can recharge almost 50% in one hour. They are honestly not data to rave about.

You can also take advantage of the 10W wireless charging technology , although we already warned you that it will be a very slow process. It also has reversible wireless charging (with 5W power) , so you can charge other terminals just by bringing your phone closer.

The battery of this Doogee S68 Pro has 6,300 mAh capacity, which will give you to talk non-stop for 80 hours.

Connectivity and other features: Doogee S68 Pro, analysis of an “off-road” that can handle almost everything

The operating system version that this smartphone integrates would be Android 9.0 Pie . Review that the speaker in this device lacks power and quality. With headphones you will hear much better. The rest of the features are completed with FM radio so you can listen to your favorite stations, and some applications that will be very practical, such as a flashlight, compass, a leveler and even a tool to measure the sound. This Dual SIM with 4G LTE connectivity, has Dual Band WiFi, Bluetooth 4.2, various sensors, NFC technology for mobile payments and a global satellite navigation system with GPS, BEIDO, GOLNASS and Galileo.

As an alternative, you have the Doogee S95 Pro , a rugged high-end smartphone with a modular design and a 48-megapixel main camera that can record video in native 4K.
