Doogee Mix review: Dress to impress

10 August 2017
We've always tried to maintain an impartial perspective and shy away from bias in our work. Whether that shines through or not is really up to you, our readers to decide. However, we will admit right off the bat that Doogee hasn't really received any significant attention from us in the past. While there are perfectly good reasons for that as well, we still feel compelled to give the Doogee Mix the benefit of the doubt.

              Guys you should double check the camera after they updated OS to Doogee OS 2.0. It's MUCH better in terms of it!

              Battery result is surprinsingly low in your test. On OS 2.0 I find the battery at least 40% better compared to LG G4 which was - true - quite bad.

                The zombification selfie mode is up to attract millions, makes it a true flagship killer.

                  SHARP AQUOS's line of phone since late 2013 has been rocking this tri-bezeless design. I do not know if I should be heartened or not, to see some phones resembling this desgin in 2017.

                    I've used a Doogee before as a temporary backup phone while my primary phone was water damaged. My experience for a month plus agrees to the review. Though it is not Doogee Mix phone, the same weaknesses and more were observed.

                    1) Weak battery, even when mostly idling, it couldn't last me during the working hours (about 10 hours). With just whatapps through out the day, I ended up charging every 6 hours!
                    2) Poor camera. Really poor in fact. The color, the sharpness are all off. I never keep any of the photo taken from the phone. That tells everything.
                    3) Bad 3G/4G performance. It was so bad that I couldn't browse or check Facebook at all. Surprisingly however, using it as a hotspot works fine!

                    The pros:
                    1) The built is sturdy. It dropped a few times and still no damage done. Lol.
                    2) Cheap phone has its market. I sold it off for 50% after posting to forum in less than a week :)

                        i just cant stop laughing on the FaceBeauty sample shot Beauty Filter lol.

                        16mp rear camera with bad quality hmm..if Doogee can get a high quality old 8mp camera it will be better (8mp like galaxy s3, iphone 4s etc.)

                        front camera, high quality old 2mp camera will be ok (2mp like in meizu mx4)

                              FinestBezels, 11 Aug 2017For the price is good. Exactly. I bought this phone "just for testing" and i'm glad i did. It's excellent for its price.

                              I got the 6gb RAM / 64gb storage for $160 last month (preorders).
                              I quite agree on many points of the review, especially the camera part which is disappointing and could be far better (the Maze Alpha seems to take excellent photos).
                              For software part, many issues can be solved with less than 30min tweaking : you just have to uninstall / disable the bloat, customize Doogee's UI, remove default browser and then you get very fast device.

                              I'm quite happy with it as a secondary phone. Battery seems to be good and i have absolutely no reception problems. Oh, and it's dual sim.

                              But i'm glad GSMA is starting to reviews other brands than the usual ones, this will open the mind and horizon of many visitors.

                                For the price is good.

                                    That camera though..

                                      Well you get what you pay for. Good paper specs but poor performance.
