Digital Camera World Verdict

If you're looking to save money on your electric bill this winter, then the Doogee S98 Pro is the phone for you. It has an exceptional battery life, night vision and thermal imaging cameras to help you see in the dark, and its nearly indestructable - so you'll hopefully never have to get it repaired. As long as you're not too bothered about 5G and having the best main camera, the Doogee's other features are outstanding, especially for those who work in trade.
