When it comes to create phones with prodigious battery sprightliness , it ’s easy to slap on a whopping assault and battery and call it a day like Energizer did for its dummy thickP18 K Poplast year . But for masses who do n’t like carrying a brick around , there ’s now an choice in theDoogee N100 .
While the N100 was officially announced last crepuscle , it was only usable in very limited numeral as part of a pre - order effort until recently . And even though the N100 only has a 10,000 mAh battery ( compared to the 20,000 mAh battery in the P18 K ) that ’s still double the shelling capacity of what you ’d get in aGalaxy S20 Ultra(5,000 mAh ) .

That ’s salutary enough for a claimed talk time of more than four days , and normal usage of more than two days . However , Doogee ’s internet site tell the N100 has a total endurance of 90 days , which is only really believable if the phone was left in standby with covert brightness set to ultra low and the phone was whole untouched for that entire continuance . Not really a meaningful figure .
Yet with the Galaxy S20 Ultra lasting 14 time of day and 41 minutes on our video summing up test , and the N100 sporting double the battery capacity , a much less index athirst processor , and a smaller sieve , I would n’t be surprised if the N100 could survive three or four days of regular use of goods and services before conking out .
On the bright side , unlike the sinewy Energizer P18 K Pop , the N100 seems sylphlike . quantify just 0.31 - inches thick and weighing 9.4 ounces , you should n’t really have a heavy meter carry the N100 around . And perhaps the real cherry on top is that the N100 cost just $ 140 .

That said , if you ’re looking for fastness or up - to - date spectacles , you wo n’t really find them here , as the N100 comes pre - installed with Android 9 , and feature a Mediatek Helio P23 ( which was annunciate back in 2017 ) and 4 GB of RAM . The N100 also has 64 GB of warehousing which is decent , and a 5.99 - inch FHD screen , but neither of those components are all that exciting .
When it comes to juicing the N100 back up , Doogee uses 24 - W USB - light speed fast charging which takes 3.5 hours for a full charge , so not exactly fast . However , you do get support for rearward cable charging , in effect turning the N100 into a bare battery pack if you postulate it , along with built - in Qi radio set charging as well .
Finally , around back , the N100 sports a 21 - MP main camera , an 8 - MP wide of the mark - angle River Cam , and a leather back , which is something I ’d like to see make a comeback on other phone too .

Personally , the N100 is n’t something I ’d really desire to use as my daily driver , but price at just $ 140 and with a battery that big , it might be dainty to keep in abug - out bag(every household should have one ) in subject of emergency .
