The budget version of the Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 is what today's test subject can be called. So, in our review we have a rather hype model from a Chinese manufacturer - "Doogee Mix 2"
Price
The date for the start of sales of the phone in Russia was set at the end of 2017, but interest in this device has not subsided until now. As of August 2018, the price of Doogee Mix 2 will be just over $ 220. You can buy a phone both in Russian stores and at foreign sites. Also, the price depends on the size of the built-in memory of the device. In total, there are 2 versions of the device - 64 and 128 gigabytes. You can also expand the memory with a flash card by placing it in the tray of the second SIM card. Reading the reviews, you can see that many people compare the Doogee mix 2 smartphone with the more eminent Samsung Galaxy s8 plus in terms of points in the antutu benchmark, and this is a significant indicator.
Appearance
At the first glance at a smartphone, associations with such smartphones as "Samsung Galaxy" and "Vkworld" s8 models involuntarily arise. Whether this can be called a plus or a minus is up to you, but the massive copying of such a design directly indicates its success among consumers. The smartphone uses a 6-inch IPS display with 2.5D "Corning Gorilla Glass 5" glass, creating an imitation of a curved display. The aspect ratio of 16: 9 and the almost invisible side frames make the device more interesting in terms of ergonomics. Display quality is on par, excellent color rendering, high brightness with support for automatic adjustment and maximum viewing angles. Doogee Mix 2 comes in 3 color options: black, blue and gold.
Characteristics
The smartphone has a MediaTek Helio P25 processor with 6 gigabytes of RAM on board and an ARM Mali-T880 video chip. This bundle produces 85,000 parrots in the Antutu benchmark. Such performance is able to ensure stable operation of Android 7.1 system and highly demanding games.
Battery
Everything is standard here, the capacity of the built-in battery is 4060 mAh. Such a battery will last for a day of intensive use, and playing a Full HD video in airplane mode at full brightness will completely discharge the device in 10 hours.
Cameras
The smartphone received 2 main and front cameras at once. The main ones shoot with a resolution of 16 and 13 megapixels, the front ones - 8. An additional camera is needed to artificially blur the background. During the day, the photos are clear, with good color rendition, while at night you will have to look for additional sources of lighting. The phone shoots video in Full hd quality. The angle of view when shooting panoramas is all 360 degrees, and the final resolution is only 2 megapixels.
Connection
Doji mix works with 2 sim cards, in alternating mode. That is, if you talk on the first sim card, then the second one will be unavailable at that moment. Both sim cards can work with 4G networks, and quite well. GPS catches well only with the Internet, a cold start takes about 8 seconds.
Unlocking
The phone is equipped with a fingerprint scanner located on the back. The sensor recognition speed is high, in addition, the scanner can be adjusted for different functions, for example, duplicate the "back" key. You can also unlock your smartphone using the face recognition function, but it will take a little longer to work.
