Editorial report

Doogee S98 technical sheet

The Doogee S98 suits buyers looking for a rugged phone with a large battery; the trade-off is a notably heavy, thick body. It weighs 320 g and measures 15.5 mm thick, among the highest figures for phones of its time. IP68, IP69K, IP69 and MIL-STD-810G protection, plus drop resistance up to 1.5 m, accompany its resistance to water, dust, impacts and drops.

Its 6,000 mAh battery and 15 W wireless charging are among the best figures of their time. Wired charging is rated at 33 W. The camera's 64 MP resolution and 256 GB of storage exceed what most phones launched around the same time offer; the setup also includes an ultrawide camera and a night-vision camera. The 6.3-inch IPS LCD display has 1080 × 2340 px resolution and 409 ppi, but its 60 Hz refresh rate is among the lowest of its time. Its 500 nits of brightness and 69.1% screen-to-body ratio are also worse than most.

Performance and connectivity are typical for phones of its time. The MediaTek Helio G96, 8 GB of RAM and Android 12 complete the global configuration, which supports two Nano-SIM cards. With a NeoScore of 5.6 and a typical overall standing, the Doogee S98 makes sense for buyers who put rugged construction and battery specifications ahead of light weight and a high-refresh-rate display.
