Good produc The battery life is amazing. I use my phone a lot for work and leisure, and only charge it every two days. Before it was every day, maybe even twice a day. It’s got plenty of storage and it’s a very fast phone, good audio output and really sturdy. I call it an idiotproof phone, cause it’s so difficult to damage it even if you’re a clutz like I am. The one thing that does bother me though, is that the camera quality is a bit rubbish. Not really clear, takes ages to get the right focus, so don’t be expecting to make stunning pics for insta on this. Otherwise I’m very happy with the phone. Hopefully it will last longer than my previous rugged phone
? Very well made phone ( brick)
Battery last for up to5- 5,5 days from 100% to 0% , I switch it of in night.
Easy to use, not the fastest phone but for the price very good, I mean do not compare with Samsung S20 or iPhone 2 million. Camera good, really shockproof. I did not drop in water…
Powerful phone, long battery and measure stuff if you choose to. Battery is great, phone is really powerful for the price benched marked as top 30.
only problems is with the software, apps not loading properly which have been fixed but this might be on the android 11 side, and the phone is quite heavy.
It does have the open source android OS which means you have to download an app launcher to store your apps not on your home screen but if you are slightly tech savvy this shouldn’t be a problem. Google, Google assist, and the play store is still included.
Rugged and smart! Try to keep this device price between £5 to £20 marginal difference against £194. Finger print works perfectly well
Battery, superb, could go 72 hours on high usage without charging.
Value for price; except for the price variation with other dealers, this device is great if valued between 200 to 215 as it is currently benchmarked at 194 equivalent in USD and other currencies.
Fantastic phone Really good phone only have it a week so hasn’t been fully tested yet. I’m not a techy person just like phones that don’t break easy. Really good value for money. Camera seems fantastic very clear pictures. Good heavy phone so you can feel it in your hands. The only thing it could have done with is being able to use the screen with gloves. Only a small thing really. I highly recommend this phone.
Really hardy against kids I really like the feel of this phone when u use it I work on fishing boats and it’s nice to know that it phone is going to be safe no matter where u leave i
Very good battery life The supplied plug was broken in the box! got round that with my lead’s thumb /finger print now not working but don’t really my thing could be me when I set it up but I have t to say it a brick and I like the built in measuring butto
Phone works fine, charger is temperamental though The charger that came with it didn’t work properly and the charging point seems a little temperamental. Great phone other than the charger which I think is bad luck.
Handy heavy duty ki Nice clear screen, very responsive and quick to load apps. Not used face recognition as yet. Battery last days and wireless charges great. Good cameras. As with all phones it takes some learning but very simple to operate. Large easy screen and adaptive light. Comes with rapid charger but no pad for wireless also screen protector fitted and one spare.
On the downside it is a weighty piece and with the leather cover that I have smaller hands may struggle.
Overall great value for money.
Great phone, rugged and bomb proof Great phone, indestructible in every sense. Records in 4k and hd pictures. The phone is very robust and in the event of high winds will certainly not blow away. Battery lasts for about 4 days and the screen is clear and crisp.
I never use fingerprint scanners as I work in the construction industry and my fingers always have nicks on them.
Quality phone I went through hoops deciding what to upgrade my dying Blackberry with.
All sorts of review read, websites consulted, eventually I narrow it down with the S97 at the top of the list.
Any issues and if its crap I can send it back.
Needn’t of worried Google transfered all the stuff off the old phone and it’s simply brilliant.
Very fast, easy to use and I am very impressed. Yes miss my keyboard but I can turn the S97 on its side and use the keyboard for longer emails or reviews.
Fantastic phone. I needed a phone in a hurry, this was unlocked and had a decent spec,
I love it, it’s s heavy phone compared to others but it has a massive battery, so I understand the weight.
I love everything about it, and the price! Some much cheaper than a contract phone.
There’s loads of little things which just make sense, programmable buttons, water and shock proof, wireless charging, dual SIM, upgradable memory, and not forgetting the infra red measure.
Good rugged phone. Very happy. Holds good charge. Best part is the charge port protective cover. Stops all dirt grease and moisture attacking the charge port. Ideal if u do dirty jobs or work outside
What a fabulous phone After having this phone for 2 weeks I feel I can now review it. What a great phone. I can’t fault any of it. Works great. The only thing missing was the charger. There wasn’t one in the box. But I purchased a Anker 10 w wireless charging base and that works great. Slow charge over night. Now the battery is great. I’m a heavy user of phones for work and this now gets charged every other night. I use about 60% over the 2 days (48 hours) so no more battery running out issues. The screen is clear and fine for watching hd and 4k films. You can can leave everything on. Ie blue tooth, location, 4g, and has no effect on length of time easy do a full-day. And this is with battery saver off and screen on full light. Can’t fault it. Hope it lasts a few years. I will update review if it all goes wrong. Thanks
Durable power at an affordable price The S97 Pro’s laser rangefinder is a useful and rather affordable feature to add to a smartphone, it took me a few minutes to fully understand its potential but for someone that loves DIY it’s brilliant.
With a battery life sitting at 8,500mAh, the battery on the S97 Pro is one of the biggest on any smartphone that I’ve ever seen. Almost triple that of something like an iPhone 12.
At the heart of the S97 Pro is the Mediatek Helio G95, an 8-core monster paired with four Arm Mali-G76 MC4 graphic cores. It is teamed with 8GB LPDDR4x system memory and 128GB UFS 2.1 system storage courtesy of Samsung. Elsewhere is support for Wi-Fi 5, NFC and Bluetooth 5.0.
Lastly, the camera system performs as well as you might expect compared to other rugged offerings. The main sensor takes good images with a decent amount of detail, contrast, and colour saturation.
Best phone eve I was a loyal Samsung owner but as I work as a delivery driver I was finding the battery power was not sufficient. I brought a couple of cheaper rugged phones before this one and they were pants. Then I stumbled upon this. I’ve been using it daily for both personal use and constantly running my work apps for delivering and it’s great. Battery life is awesome and it charges quickly. I’ve dropped it multiple times and used it in the rain without problems. The torch is amazing for delivering in the dark. It does everything a Samsung does and so much more. My partner is an Apple user but he is also going to buy one of these. Best phone ever!
Brilliant phone. Brilliant phone. My battery lasts 10-14 days under my normal use, or would if I let it, I charge it at half charge normally but its a solid battery. Nice feeling, quality build, fast and smooth operating. Cant fault it, really pleased with it.
Great Phone My husband already had a DOOGEE phone and when i needed a new one he talked me into having one too! It is heavier than my last android, but it’s something that i have very quickly got used too. The battery life is amazing, i use the phone a lot and have only had to charge it every two days. It was very, very easy to set up and everything was transfered from my old phone with no hassle at all and my husband downloaded all my music from the computer too. There are some programmes that i liked the look of better on my old phone, but thats only to be expected as you get used to familiar things over time. All in all, its a great phone that does just what i need it to.
Excellent rugged phone I bought this phone to use at work because of its durability. It’s waterproof, dust proof and comes in an armoured shell for protection against drops and knocks.
It’s a good sized chunky phone that has a lot of tech inside.
It has 8GB RAM and 128 GB of storage which can be extended via a micro SD card in needed. It has an Octa Core processor and massive 8500mAh battery. All of this makes for a smooth operating phone.
The camera system is great too having a quad camera set up with the main camera being a 48MP Samsung camera. This offers great images which are nice and sharp and clear. Recording video is great too as it can record in glorious 4k.
This phone also has a side fingerprint reader which is very accurate and fast and can also use face recognition for extra security.
The great feature of this phone is the rangefinder. It has a built in laser with a 40m distance that can measure Length, Area, Volume and Pythagoras. You can simply measure by pressing the 2nd button on the left side of the phone. This works very well and is easy to access.
The Doogee S97Pro also has wireless charging and NFC meaning you can make contactless payments.
Overall I am absolutely delighted with this phone and for the following reasons I have decided to rate it 5 stars:
Looks great
Is very fast and smooth
Excellent 4G signal strength with my carrier
Excellent screen
Brilliant camera set up
Great Rangefinder
Excellent battery life
Great charge times
Wireless charging
NFC
Go out and buy this phone, it’s great for many different environments.
Very sturdy/heavy duty mobile phone with a great battery! I bought this rock mobile phone, because it is shockproof and waterproof. So it will survive several drops and if you take shower with it nothing wrong will happen with it!
The phone can take an SD cards on its left hand side, which is great on adding some extra space of memory to it!
Its battery life is awesome, it lasts for a couple of days with single charge and a normal usage. I loved this feature too much and it’s really necessary nowadays.
I love to that it’s has a fingerprint scanner and face unlocking feature, in addition to the laser rangefinder with a built-up application! This was very handy to me when I was looking for a new property to rent.
The only two things that I didn’t like is that this lovely phone has only one speaker where it should has dual stereo speakers to enhance the sound but I believe that the sound is still fine and loud enough. The other thing is that the panel has only 720p resolution and we are in 2021, I kind find it unacceptable and I believe they should consider a higher resolution screen in the upcoming models.
Thank you very much for taking time in reading this review.
Excelle
Phone works well, has a solid internet connection and battery life is good.

Awesome for the price just wish it had a N/V camera.
Great, highly recommend
I’ve been using this phone for over a month, I have encountered no problems so far, very responsive…!
For the price anyone will be extremely pleased with this device.. don’t expect the world’s best camera, although it is still relatively good!
The Lazer measure works well indoors, it’s basically useless outdoors in the day time though!
Absolute tank of a phone, feels built to a good sturdy quality and looks great too!
Definitely buy this phone!

No regrets here at all.
