If you could pick all the top specs for a phone and create the ultimate wish list device, then I am sure it would end up sounding very much like the purported specifications of the Doogee F7.
Doogee are a well known brand, but not for being innovative or offering the best designs. They aren’t even known for having the latest chipsets, but according to their press release today they will be soon known for all of that and more.
Doogee F7: Worlds first Helio X20 phone?
Doogee claim that they have been working closely with Mediatek and the two companies have created the worlds first production ready Helio X20 phone. The Helio X20 is a 10 core processor and is also known as the MT6797.
Gizchina News of the week
Claiming to be the first with this much-anticipated chipset would be news enough for most phone makers, but Doogee have gone a little further revealing detailed hardware specifications for the Doogee F7.
According to the phone maker the Doogee F7 will sport a 5.7-inch 2K display with force touch technology, a 21 mega-pixel Sony IMX230 rear camera, and Android 6.0. All of this will be slipped inside a phone that measures only 7mm thick making it the thinnest 2K, force touch phone on the market.
While it is perfectly possible that Doogee could make a phone with this hardware (they are a large OEM after all) we do find ourselves doubting the information especially considering the retail price for this beast will be just $169.99!
Apparently Doogee will release the Doogee F7 early in 2016. Do you think they will come through? or are these specs to hard to swallow?
$169.99 for THIS? 11/10 would buy.
in a land where pigs could fly , ofcourse …
in the same land where i’m president hehehe
😀
Absolutely ZERO chance is this real info…
exactly … maybe some cannabis junkie is gizchina’s informant/insider ?
Haha, you’re probably right there!
Of course it isn’t real, hell I doubt $169 as the BOM.
The price is one thing, the specs is another, I just can’t see Doogee putting a device out with this spec at all, it would be so… Out of character of them lol
The BOM for an above speced phone would easy be closer to $200 if not more, depending on the quality of the parts they are using.
Doogee F5 project failed, now…..!!! what the meaning of selling it at that price when they are to produce 6 pieces total stock
i heard f5 wasnt THAT bad as expected ?!
Its not bad, hes just mad he pre ordered a phone which was not released and he had to wait a long time to get it
lolz
This is my dream phone if it is having dedicated sd card slot.
And it should also support at least fdd-lte 800-1800-2100-2600 mHz.
By the time it will be released they will change the specs to 6735, qHD display and 1700mah battery
LOL
there is no possible way for this price.. it must be presale limited stock price but still..can’t
$169.99 might be just for the SoC, rest of the hardware would cost extra. 😀
There’s no way that’s the price it will go for. Maybe a flash sale for 1 device? Also, I find it hard to believe that Oppo, Xiaomi, etc get Helios x20 after Dogee.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA !
thanks for the laughs Doogee !
Promising spec set … but a $269 price tag looks more reasonable. we all know you canNOT purchase fucking 2k panels or the latest 10 core cpu or an imx 230 sensor and put em in a phone for that fucking price FOR THAT RETAIL COST ?!
who on earth are u kidding ?!
Oops Dogee u got Yasir mad
they should have seen it coming B)
Aha i found the error 😀 the battery is built in and has 100mah 😀
well with those spec’s that’s what the battery life is gonna feel like if it ain’t more than 3500mah :-p
I have been waiting for this moment for over months now…Release the Helios I say! And if that price is real then the better….
After reading your comment, now i want so bad a chipset series called “kraken”, so we could order “release the kraken!!!”
I would like one called “oppai”
Since your bosses at Doogee first told you about it?
Haha..not even close. In case it wasn’t clear for those who can’t read in-between the lines, when i wrote ‘waiting for this moment’ I didn’t exactly mean the Doogee phone, I meant the release of the Helio x20 so get off your high horse..
You commented about a Doogee phone, what do you expect those of us “on our high horses” to think? If they had a story about a Xiaomi phone and someone commented “Been waiting for this all year”, a logical person who assume he meant the Xiaomi phone. Maybe you should get off your low horse and explain yourself better next time.
If you read it carefully they say the ‘worlds first production ready Helio X20 phone’, it says nothing about actually releasing the worlds first X20 phone. Doubt we’ll see this till the summer and even then not at anything near the claimed price. If this had a 6″ display even I might have been tempted into buying a Doogee phone, thank god it doesn’t!
well i do hope deep in my gut they prove us all wrong and deliver on their promises,,, except the price… i couldn’t sleep peacefull hoping my phone will make it until the next morning beeing suspicious it will die of poor parts.
Doogee has good jokes… 🙂
The first image has no physical button then the second does. What a load of shite this is.
If one thing is for sure, it’s that on everyone’s “ultimate wish list” the first voice on the list is “no from doogee”, so… You know… :-/
Speaking of the list: how about an open thread about an actual “ultimate wish list”? There’s plenty of employee from many chinese companies who promote their products here in the comment section, maybe we readers could come up with some interesting ideas about a nice phone the employees could suggest about…
they won’t like the “plz be cheaaap!!”
at the beginning of the list 😉
Not just the beginning, it will be like:
1-not doogee
2-be cheap
3-no black borders
4-be cheap
5-front speakers
6-be cheap
7-big battery
8-be cheap
9-ir sensor
10-be cheap
….
1997-be cheap
1998-be cheap
1999-be cheap
2000-be CHEAPER
Dual SIM? SD card slot?
Those would be somewhere between the 10th and the 1997th position, don’t worry 😀
What about “not cost lot”? I see that one too.
You know, i really like to negoziate, so I’m like “1$”, they’re like “800$”, and at last we meet halfway at 5$ ?
well, it won’t hurt to make a poll of what people want. companies can have a hint of what most people want
The bugs, the lags and the bloatware of the ROM, are included in the price? =P =D
This is very low priced and it’s very weird…
Well Doogee maybe use cheap parts on their phones but their software is really clean and functional.
Yes, but it’s Android 6 and maybe it will be very buggy at the first Chinese models and it will get no Updates… That’s what happened with the most Chinese phones and Lollipop (5.0)… =(
u re not right. most took updates and Lollipop 5.x was stable
Nah it wasn’t at all.
Lollipop 5.0 itself was a very bug version of Android, even Google’s own Nexus line was a train wreck on 5.0. My Nexus 4 and 7 were virtually unusable after upgrading. Most Chinese phones from reputable companies were updated to 5.1. The key word there is reputable.

Would be interesting if someone could chart the price drop to technology increases over the past few years. By end first quarter next year this could be entirely reasonable. On the camera front Sony has a raft of new sensors out, so even a high spec older model could now be feasible for the like of Doogee. It seems some of the (camera) sensors developed never even make it in to a phone (especially from say OV), which is a shame.
gionee took advantage of that with the 23.4 OV camera on their Elife E8 that what i got on my Blu.
would be great !!! but i will make my self think i read $ 269.99 instead so no to get to depress with the real final price IF, AND A BIG IF, It ever comes to reality with those same spec’s. hope for world bands and sd-card reader and good sound.
$169.99 for THIS? 11/10 would buy.

I write “Dooge”, read “dogy”. I can’t make another comment about this company.
I am gonna go out on a limb and say this is typical Doogee, it will either be delayed, never come out or the specs are faked.

even a blind man would sense it when doogee pull a publicity stunt like that 😀
170$ is way too chip for this specs.

This is very low priced and it’s very weird…

I’ve just got the F3 pro, and I have to say it’s pretty good. Just my opinion of course, but it’s doing everything I expected of it.
It was a long wait for Doogee to produce it, but that’s my only real criticism. The Voice Assistant is rather hit and miss, nice gimmick.
Build quality is excellent, no bloatware, battery ok for a slim device. I would like to think I am realistic about my expectations – I don’t expect a $150 phone to be quite as good as a $600 phone from Huawei/Samsung, or a $1000 iPhone! And to be honest, they all have their problems.
So when I’m tired of this one in a few months, the F7 might be just the right replacement!
From my experience it would be worth considering even at $270. If it really does go on sale for $170 I would be in!
even Chinese consider the price of iPhone 6 is $1000 in China, so it showed us you are a Chinese, maybe work for DOOGEE 🙂
Ha! Nope, I’m an English builder.
No connection to Doogee except this F3 pro, which I bought with my own money and I have not received any incentives from Doogee or anyone else.
I am just impressed with the phone.
Other members of my family have iPhone 6s and Samsung models, so I can make comparisons with the Chinese phones that I buy.
People find all these superlatives strange, knowing how bad a Doogee phone “sounds” to most even remotely informed members of the community. But after your explanation, that’s not too unbelievable, since you have not owned a good Chinese device. Not sure about Oukitel, but it is a new brand and I still don’t trust it.
I found the U8 pretty good, but the soc was advertised before launch as a 1.5ghz octacore mt6735. It was actually shipped with mt6735 p 1.3ghz quad-core the chip. That left it too slow to stream video smoothly, which is one of my main uses. The sound quality is poor as well.
As I wanted a 5″fhd screen phone, I decided to go for the F3 pro.
Again the sound from the rear speaker isn’t great, but I tend to use headphones or bluetooth speakers anyway, so no big deal.
Worth noting that oukitel is part of the same group as Doogee.
What I meant is that the progress in last years is so big that even bad brands seem to have acceptable quality when you haven’t tried some of the better phones from bigger Chinese brands.
Hows the battery life? Read that it ranged from OK to bad.
I’ve found the battery to be as good as one would expect. Lasts me all day from about 7am to 11pm with wifi and bluetooth always on, not always connected. I did find a rogue app that was draining it unnecessarily and uninstalled it, can’t remember what it was now..
All in all its been one of the best phones I’ve had. Just broke the screen this week which seems to be something I’m really good at! Not Doogees fault, it’s stood up to some pretty harsh conditions!
Iphone 6 is around £600 in the UK, so $1000 is a rough conversion.
And if Doogee is reading this and want to offer me a job in return for the new phone I would be very happy to accept!
Out of curiosity what other Chinese phones have you owned?
Amongst others – worst was a fake lenovo p780T, but that wasn’t THAT bad, battery lasted several days of “normal for me” use. IK8 watch phone, Mlais m52, ; most recent was Oukitel u8 along with the Oukitel a28 watch, and a Pipo tablet with phone capabilities.
Since 1990 I’ve had Nokia of various kinds, then moved onto SPV when the first smartphones became available, on to the top end HTC models because I was paying a small fortune on line rental and got a new one every 12 months, then saw the light, went for the cheapest sim deals and got a bit of Nexus 4. (also a Nexus 7). Then I started looking at Chinese phones….
I’m not an expert, but I do a lot of research before I buy each one!
So you have never owned a Xiaomi, Huawei, One Plus, Vivo, Oppo, Lenovo or Meizu?
… I’m in Muhammad Yasir’s camp on this… gotta be cheap!
I haven’t bought any of the leading brands because I’ve been reluctant to risk that much money. Also, so far, none have produced a phone that I absolutely want regardless of price. Huawei have been close, as have Vivo. Each time I buy a new phone, I see it as stop-gap before someone makes “the One”. Maybe 2016 will be a good year for top end Chinese phones..
The only reason I was asking was because if you use one of them you will see the difference in quality between them and brands like Doogee.
I am sure they are better quality, but I also think that Doogee have upped their game. It would be difficult for me to say what about the iPhone 6(for example) is better than the F3. OS aside, in terms of build quality I am more than happy. I would like to have a gyroscope sensor in my next phone, that’s something cheap Chinese phones always seem to lack.
Let’s have your phone ownership list of then…
We could be here all day if I listed every phone I owned but here is my phones but here is small sample of phones I have owned. I am lucky enough that my former company gave me $600 a year for a work phone, which I split up into a new work phone every 6 months. But here is my partial list:
Meizu MX5
Xiaomi Mi4
Xiaomi Mi3
Vivo xShot
Gionee E7
Gionee S5.5
iOcean X8
Kingzone K1 Turbo
Xiaomi Mi2s
Oppo Find
ZTE Nubia Z7
Huaweii P6
thats a DAMN impressive line up !
man , i wish my job also gives my that kinda allowance for a work phone! (ofcourse , i’ll do more that just ‘work’ on that 😀 )
Haha thats only about a 1/4th of the phones Ive owned. I also spent a lot of my own money on phones just because I was curios to try them out. My friends love me because they always get slightly used brand new phones for free.
But now that I am no longer single I can’t spend like that anymore lol. And my work phones are no Lumia’s because I work for Msoft.
awww … not hating upon lumias (some have v.good cams i hear) but im not v.fond of windows as a handheld OS .
nice to know you work for Msoft … if you don’t mind me asking , whats your designation ?
I don’t mind Windows OS for work, it’s actually a bit easier especially for presentations. I wouldn’t want to use it for my personal phone though because of the lack of apps. I work PR for Microsoft.
nice !
Nice list!
Had the kingzone k1 turbo until I crushed it!
you do NOT want Balco to answer that , trust me 🙂
long time no see , where have you been ?!
Once again… lurking in the shadows!
There hasn’t been much around to get me excited enough to comment on.
Nice to see you still here old friend

This is fake just like every X20 announced phone. The chipset overheated so bad on the bench no OEM would touch it. Any claims are contingent on Mediatek fixing the problems, which at this point seems impossible.
I haven’t seen a single mention of the X20 overheating, if you have please share your sources I would love to read it. There were some tests done back around May pitting the X20 vs the 810 in heating tests and the tests showed the x20 running 10c cooler during peak performance. But the tests could never be verified.
2K, 7mm thickness = Fail battery….

Just as I thought its been 3 days with no response, this was clearly a Snapdragon fanboy comment from someone who has no clue about Mediatek chips.

I’ll just lol
I have a Doogee DG550 and I am very happy with it. Almost bought the gorgeous Doogee F5 but I understand some sensors are lacking. I am currently using Xiaomi RN2 Prime but if this Doogee F7 is real, Sensors are in place and the price is right, I will get it.
i have bougth 3 of these 2 to sell and 1 for wife, wich has survived more drops than a regular phone shoul. sure i’ve had to change the cristal at $17 dollar 2 times but thats reasonable AND the only reason i could ever have some faith in doogee.

That`s allot of BS, in the end this phone will spot the P10, not the X20, or not come to frutition.
