In an era where people need more firepower for their smartphones, more and more manufacturers are coming up with devices with large battery capacities. Chinese company, Gionee announced a new smartphone – the Gionee M5 with a dual battery setup that combines to offer 6000mAh in capacity, however a lesser known brand from China Doogee has an upcoming smartphone with 6000mAh battery – the Doogee S6000.
As the name suggests, the Doogee S6000 would come with 6000mAh battery capacity. It would also take advantage of the MediaTek PumpExpress feature which would let the device charge twice faster than other smartphones. It is said to be able to charge up to 75% in 30 minutes and offers around 3 to 4 days of battery life.
The Doogee S6000 fall short of some glory due to its likeness to fellow Chinese brand’s Xiaomi Mi Note in terms of looks but their specs are far apart in terms of comparison. It sports a 5.5-inch 2.5D glass body with 1280 x 720 pixels resolution, Zinc Titanium body build and 3D Glonass Glass Back cover. The screen to body ratio is 75% with 2.5mm slim bezels and measures 9mm in thickness.
Under the hood, the Doogee S6000 is powered by a 64-bit MT6735 SoC, which uses an octa-core 1.5GHz CPU and the Mali-T720 GPU. Disappointedly, only 1GB of RAM is onboard for handling tasks and there is 16GB space of internal storage. There is a microSD card slot for storage expansion up to 128GB more.
On the rear there is a 8MP camera with f/2.0 aperture with Dual LED flash and a front facing 5MP camera. It runs on Android 5.1 Lollipop OS pre-installed and could also come with Wireless charging feature. The Doogee S6000 is expected to arrive in August for a price equivalent to $139.99 USD.
