Photo Announcement. Doogee S51 is another budget armored smartphone

Doogee has announced its next armored smartphone. It's called Doogee S51.


Doogee S51

Actually, it would be more honest to call it Doogee S61 Lite... Because Doogee S51 is a weakened version of the smartphone Doogee S61. And that, in turn, is a weakened version of the device Doogee S61 Pro. And all three are the same size. And the appearance differs only in the materials used. Identical batteries and screens. In short, we have very, very close relatives.


Doogee S61 Pro

The first difference is in the chipset. The Doogee S51 is weakMediaTek Helio G25. And the older brothers use a slightly more powerful Helio G35. Although the performance is low here and there. Over one hundred thousand points in AnTuTu have exceeded - already good.

Memory. 4+64 GB for S51 and S61, 6+128 GB for S61 Pro. Support for memory cards is available.

Batteries are fine. The capacity is sufficient - 5180 mAh. But there are no high-speed chargers.

The screens are very compact by today's standards. Diagonal 6 "(93 cm²). Resolution 720x1440 (268 ppi). Of course, there is no question of any increased refresh rate.

Here are the sets of cameras for everyone.

    < li>In Doogee S51, of course, they put the simplest set. 8 MP front, 12+2 MP rear.
  • S61 also has 8 MP in the front, but already 20 + 20 MP in the back (the second camera is "night", with IR illumination).
  • The S61 Pro already has 16 MP in the front and 48 + 20 MP in the back (the second camera is also "night").

NFC modules, Type-C and dual-band Wi-Fi are all three. The S51 suddenly lacks a fingerprint scanner. The "big brothers" have it.

He didn't say anything about protection. But there are no revelations here. Traditionally promise IP68, IP69K and MIL-STD-810G. Those. all smartphones can be more or less freely heated and slightly�ko drop.

All three smartphones are already on AliExpress. Prices fluctuate regularly. At the time of writing these lines, they are:
