An interesting novelty from the Chinese company Doogee was the flagship F3. This device can compete in performance even with market leaders. What will interest the brainchild of the Celestial Empire?
Design
The device received a stylish and at the same time solid appearance. The roundness gives it a resemblance to the flagships of Samsung, but this is a peculiar plus for Doogee.
The telephone is made of metal, more precisely, only the frame of the device. This solution allowed us to achieve good strength, but the Doogee F3 Pro smartphone weighs as much as 170 grams. Despite the fact that the device is heavy, it is convenient to work with it. The manufacturer achieved this result by processing the sides.
The manufacturer made a rather interesting move regarding the colors of the phone. There are the most familiar colors, black and white, but the user will be able to change the back panel. The company released not only plastic, but also wooden covers.
Appearance details did not undergo significant changes. In front is the screen, sensors, speaker, camera and controls. On the side of the right is a power button, as well as a volume control. The left side was taken under the card slots.
On the back is the main camera, company logo, flash and speaker. The butt on the top was taken under the headset jack, and the bottom for the USB cord.
The case is integral, and squeaks do not arise. The assembly of Chinese devices has long been consistent with the standards of market leaders. The company also took care of the protection by installing Gorilla Glass 2.5.
The design of the F3 is hardly unusual, although the device is definitely elegant. Even the similarity with the Korean flagships does not spoil the impression of the smartphone. Definitely, the appearance turned out to be excellent.
Camera
The installation of a 13 megapixel sensor significantly affected the quality of the Doogee F3 Pro images. A review is impossible without mentioning that the photo resolution is 4160 by 3120, this will please many users. Photos are of excellent quality, no noise and very detailed.
The device also supports video recording. By the way, he shoots HD movies with a resolution of 1920 by 1080 with 30 frames per second. Unfortunately, Samsung does not reach the quality of the video recording.
There is also a front camera with 5 megapixels. The camera familiar to flagships is capable of not only making video calls, but also making decent self-portraits.
Display
Equipped the phone with a five-inch high-resolution screen. The display has 1920 by 1080 pixels, which allows the image to look amazing. Even peering, the user will not find a flaw.
The company took care of installing the IPS matrix in the Doogee F3 Pro. The overview of the screen is greatly increased when using this technology. In addition to increasing the angles, the image brightness has also improved significantly. In the sun, the display almost does not fade.
Hardware
Performance also did not cheat Doogee F3 Pro. A review of the filling will please the presence of eight cores with a frequency of 1.5 GHz. MTK6753 is used as a processor - a pretty good, albeit budget choice. The role of the graphics accelerator performs Mali T720.
They backed up the performance by installing as many as three gigabytes of RAM. For the Chinese flagship, this is a very impressive indicator. Due attention was also paid to the native memory. The smartphone received 16 GB, but only about 13 gigabytes are available for the user. With a lack of memory, the capacity can be expanded with a 128 GB flash drive.
Autonomy
There is also a significant flaw in the Doogee F3 Pro. A review of the battery characteristics suggests that the capacity of the device leaves much to be desired, because its volume is only 2200 maH. Actually, this is a problem of so many devices. The battery allows the device to stretch a day in standby mode. Active use will significantly reduce her life, up to about 4-5 hours.
System
A nice feature of F3 was the use of "Android 5.1". The newest system eliminates the need for firmware or searching for suitable programs. The phone has standard applications and several new products from the manufacturer.
Price
Surprisingly, such a powerful smartphone received a very affordable price. You can become the owner of this miracle for only 150 dollars. The price stands out nicely among competitors. Undoubtedly, the low cost is due to the use of cheap fillings, but the performance was not affected.
Positive reviews
I immediately want to highlight the interesting design of the Doogee F3 Pro. Reviews highlight the removable back and a pleasant roundness of the device. The ability to diversify your phone with various panels is very original.
It is impossible to deprive the attention and display of the smartphone. Amazing quality screen attracted a lot of users.
Although the device uses an inexpensive filling, performance is at its best. Perhaps the device is far from advanced flagships, but with most tasks the device copes with a bang.
Negative reviews
The main problem is the Doogee F3 Pro 5.0 battery. Reviews report a strong dependence on recharging. Capacity is simply not enough for all the needs of a smartphone. Unfortunately, the manufacturer made a significant mistake.
Total
The evolution of Chinese devices is amazing. Excellent filling and low cost allow the F3 to compete even with eminent brands. A little confused similar to the "Samsung" appearance and a bad battery, but these are trifles.
