Editorial report
Cubot KingKong Star 2 technical sheet
The Cubot KingKong Star 2 suits anyone looking for a rugged phone with performance better than most phones of its time. The trade-off is its size and weight: at 305 g and 13.5 mm thick, it is heavier and thicker than most. It resists water and dust (IP68, IP69K) as well as drops and shocks (MIL-STD-810H), making its rugged construction a key part of the package.
Its 6.72″ IPS LCD display refreshes at 144 Hz, among the highest rates of its time, and reaches 1500 nits peak brightness. The 75% usable screen area is lower than on most phones of its time. The Dimensity 8200, 12 GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 990,000 points in AnTuTu v10 put its hardware ahead of most. It has 256 GB of expandable storage.
The 100 MP camera offers higher resolution than most, but the overall camera is among the weakest of its time and lacks optical image stabilization. The 5100 mAh battery and 33 W charging are typical figures. Connectivity is better than on most phones of its time, with 5G, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3 and NFC. Its overall NeoScore is 5.4. This is a fit for buyers who put ruggedness, performance and a high-refresh-rate display ahead of a lighter body or a more capable camera.
