Extremely useful and durable phone.
This is about the best phone I've ever had in my life and the price is agreeable for what it is. Unlike so many high-end phone it's not 700 - 1,000. No bloatware compared to the older Doogee phone models and with it's viability for outdoor/labor intensive activities this makes it one of the best rugged phones in the market. However, there is a few problems that I have with this phone but not enough to really bother me.The screen is not full in with the dark gaps it leaves out, wish they could of made more use of the space. The stock camera app has an issue with audio that it makes it sound low but you can always just work around it with 3rd party apps anyway. For night vision, you can use android 10 screen recorder that way to even capture the audio fine so it's just a few extra steps to take. Lastly, Doogee doesn't update their phones as much so you'll probably have to stick with Android 10 for a long while and wait for any security updates. Really wish they were more active with updating some of their phones to the latest Android version.

Great phone, just can't be used.
This is an amazingly durable smart phone. Great features for such a low cost compared to the bigger name brands out there!Unfortunately, it is not compatible with any GSM Carriers in the US market. Even though it uses the same frequency bands that these carriers use, it is not allowed for one reason or another. (Most likely politics)Don't waste your monies if you live in the US.

So far so good Doogee!
I had the S90pro last time around, was a good phone until the cat dumped water on it while it was charging. This one so far is the same size physically, so I'm used to it. I think the screen resolution was a touch better on the 90. The camera on the 96 is superior so far. Other sites suggested downloading a different camera app to really take advantage of the hardware. I haven't yet since I'm not a picture taking fool. I still wish the tough phones would put the speaker on the front like I had on my old Duraforce. To me, that's about the only complaint with the newer designs.This phone is no different although the one speaker is pretty loud. I have noticed the screen sensitivity is different at times, mostly at the unlock screen though. A few times the screen remains black when a phone call comes in, but I think that has been when I've been outside in the cold. Still not cool that it happens though. Battery lasts several days. The night vision camera works pretty good for a gimmick. Processor is faster than anything I would need it for. The screen protectors that are included are the plastic style, not glass, so they will get scratched up. Would I buy it again? Probably. I seriously looked at a Ulefone and 1 or 2 other current tough phones.

Excellent First Impressions, Hope It Lasts
This is my first Doogee, but not my first unlocked/rugged smartphone so I have experience I want to share since buying one of these can be hit or miss based on most generic reviews. For starters, this is an initial review after first couple of weeks of use that I'll follow up on as the long term is where these types of phones make them either a great deal or an overpriced paperweight. I should also note that this purchase was not new, but a used "Good" Amazon Warehouse resale for $230 so new should be better than mine.16JUN22 - (Initial) Love it! It's very streamlined compared to older rugged phones and even with larger battery and screen, doesn't feel bulky/heavy. I use it with T-mobile, which uses the 4GVoLTE, and the call reception/internet speeds have been great and consistent! Calls are clear on both ends, but speaker is not very good. The location on bottom rear makes it hard to hear, especially as hand tends to naturally block it. Bluetooth, Wifi work as expected. Cameras are excellent including the Night Vision which is amazing! The battery life is about 2.5-3days with heavy use, i.e. gaming/movies for several hours a day. I'm currently testing normal use, i.e. just calling/texts/pics/etc and am currently on day 5 with ~16% left. I used wireless charging for first time (10W Qi), which works great, and it takes about 4hrs for full-recharge. Wired charging was about 2hrs. So far, very happy with my purchase.**Special point to make is regarding the wireless charging as that was a major fail with other older rugged phones I owned as you had to always plug it in and remove the waterproofing cap/cover every time which caused it to breakoff early on every phone rendering the ruggedness null.

Does not support the carries it claims
I currently have Cricket and seeing one of the reviews saying it worked I went ahead and bought this phone.The DOGEE s96 pro does not work with CricketThe DOGEE s96 pro does not work with VerizonThe DOGEE s96 pro does not work with AT&TI called and went to a Verizon store and got turn down both times.Cricket straight up suspense's your account if you use this phone. I tried twice with support and both times my account was locked for not having a compatible device.Lastly was AT&T. When I say it doesn't work I more so mean it barely works. If you're comfortable paying for a 5g/4g plan while ONLY getting 3g then you're good. This phone does not get 4G from AT&T.I am from the USA and I've spent about a week trying to get this thing going. I wanted to love this phone and functionally I do. Its a good looking phone.Pros: Sturdy, looks great, bright screen, awesome camera, fast with games, fast reacting screenCons: Barely works on AT&T and doesn't work with anything else. Its HEAVY, which at first doesn't much matter. But when I started spending 20+min on the phone in a call trying to get a carrier to work then I started to notice. I also noticed for such a huge battery that this phone tanks in power if you're on it for more than an hour.Other than that I don't have anything against this phone. I returned it today because I can't justify paying for a 5G plan while only getting 3G. Hopefully this review helps someone who was in the same boat as me. I looked and looked to make sure it would work and everyone said yes. Well that isn't the case as of this review.
