Doogee DK 10 Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

DOOGEE DK 10 is a truly rugged camera phone

It's nice to see the development of products from the Chinese company Doogee. In addition to inexpensive phones, the manufacturer is increasingly delighting its fans with representatives of the middle and even high price segments. So, the hero of today's review is just such a device and provides remarkable performance along with outstanding photographic capabilities.

The appearance of the new product is not bad, although it is far from ideal. Among the obvious shortcomings, we highlight the large thickness of the case and wide display frames. Unfortunately, the increased strength and protection from dust and moisture according to IP68 standards did not pass without consequences for the exterior. However, the stylish block of four cameras, the side fingerprint scanner, and the beautiful carbon texture of the rear panel with metal elements make a positive impression. The developer did not skimp on the 6.67-inch AMOLED screen. Brightness of more than 1500 nits allows the image not to lose visibility in direct sunlight, the picture is also characterized by excellent smoothness (refresh rate 120Hz) and clarity (FullHD+ resolution). Both the glass of the AMOLED panel and the protective film on it are endowed with an oleophobic layer.

The technical characteristics selected are the current balanced MediaTek Dimensity 8020 chipset with support for 5G networks, 12GB of RAM and the Mali G77-MC9 video adapter. The bundle scores almost 800 thousand points, so 99% of buyers will be satisfied with it. Applications launch instantly, and the already optimized Android 13 impresses with its responsiveness and lack of shell lag. All existing games will run on the gadget, only the extremely resource-intensive Genshin Impact or Undecember will require a reduction in graphics presets to maintain a stable framerate. The volume of permanent memory has reached the flagship 512GB; not every user will have to use MicroSD cards. The battery capacity of 5150 mAh cannot be considered a record, but it almost always provides 8-9 hours of active screen time. The wired charging power is as much as 120W, and its wireless counterpart is also supported.

The main cameras are a 50-megapixel Samsung GN1 main sensor with hybrid stabilization, a wide-angle lens of the same 50 megapixels, a 64-megapixel telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom, and a 16-megapixel night vision sensor. Even evening shots are replete with details and will delight you with the natural rendering of colors. The stereo speakers are loud, the bass is audible, and the frequency response is quite flat. NFC contactless payments, an excellent 50MP selfie camera and a competitive price tag add to the appeal of a potential bestseller.
