One helluva phone !!!!
 Me . I should say this phone I have been waiting and waiting for too long . As a rugged phone dead fan. 2019 I had my first doogee phone which is 90 pro come with battery case. They’ll bring me to the doogee’s. World. And the very next year I convinced my cousin to dump his iPhone and switch to doogee s86. . And in 2021 my s 90 battery went down and I bought the oukitel one but not a smart move . And 2023 the unihertz got tank released and kinda caught my eyes . So I went ahead got one but after 2 months. I returned . The system crushed every single time and the back giant light are annoying when it light up itself sometime . And finally doogee v max got me back . And I start to abuse it as soon as I received it about a week ago . And here are my complete reviews as a dead fan .PRO:1 battery just won dead easily even I use of it for a lot of phone call and video playing . So far as I write this it has been running for over 146 hrs WOW and also this phone has a really good feature that you can set up a battery saving mode (I did it as 40 percent the saving mode will kick in ). It will low the battery consumption by cutting the refresh rate but if you are not using it for gaming you can’t even tell.2. System run android 12 very stable. I tried to load two different type of flash memory cards (this phone accepts external storage card up to 1 TB according to official ) based on my previous bad experience from unihertz systems always pops wait or close android message . V max smooth and no delay even I open 5 apps from my memory card . Smooth as hell .3. Two SIM cards available. This feature is a cool if you are traveling oversea and have second SIM is always cool feature but keep i mind if you decide to get SIM card number two you have to take off the memory card out because they s sharing same slot. For me It is totally fine I am not travel soon lately.4. Finger print sensor on right side instead the doogee 90 on the back . Make it very hard to get scratched by keys accidentally. Which it happen to my wife google pixel long time ago .5 . Water proof . And material on v max is something I like it is aluminum combining with leather like rubber. It gave me pretty good grip with a luxury looking . Smart designs. Compare to oukitel phone they are use cheap plastic I think v max total bang the bucks.6 no over heating issue . I tried PUBG and COD on it . It running smooth . And not crazy hearing problems as I noticed. But of course, I still prefer use my iPad to do the video game . It is too heavy.7 camera I will rate 8 out of 10 . It feels like a google pixel 5 camera . But it is a decent camera . Even it does not do a great job at night . But a rugged phone like that can’t complain that.8 left side button DIY my app . This is a must for me all my phone has this key it set it up as my google wallet. Talking about my google wallet . I have running all this data with my NFC turns on . !!! If I turn it off my battery will even last longer .9 no glitch working with google home and Alexa frame and echo auto . I have google home and echo auto in my car . It links every time when I turn on my car keys . No glitch . It happen to my doogee s90 pro . Something I have to open the Alexa app to reboot my phone to get hook up with the Bluetooth system. Not an issue with my V MAX . I am so happy that doogee had fixed it . CONS.1 heavy and bulky . 1Lb baby not a joke For summer it will pull your shorts off LOL . Make sure for a belt .2 thicker than you think my old car mount not working so I have to buy a new one . You can go with the magnetic version . Don’t worry about that. Will not damage your phone. because this phone does not have a wireless charging.3 yucky no wireless charging . But this is okay . Why . A thick giant phone like this with a wireless charging. Will take forever which make this phone pointless. So fast cable charge works for me . V MAX can charge my earbuds wirelessly. As a power bank I think this feature not everyone know this . Over all . V MAX is a good phone for the fellas who like to go out a lot who likes to travel or maybe who like to living off-grid . it works for me. is under $600 fits my budget . a whole week heavy use without a charge . And my doogee phone make me a celebrity . every time I go out with my friend and always guys ask me what the heck is the phone. LMFAO.

After using this phone for a couple months, I love it!It only has a few things that, in my opinion, could be improved upon.It is rugged, loud, stable, and has a beautiful display.My phone has taken a few minor tumbles and the only damage it has sustained is I cracked the screen protector I added on. If your current phone fails to notify you in loud situations, the volume on this phone is a little insane, but in a good way, you will hear it in a loud environment! I have had no crashes or freeze ups aside from auto rotate which I will cover later. The camera is amazing and easy to get just the look you want. The battery is awesome, I usually get between a week to 12 days depending on how much I’m using it, which on average is a few hours every day. The cellular side of the phone is top notch, haven’t had any issues with dropped calls or lack of signal (depending on your carriers coverage, I’m rocking T-mobile).I have played a few games, and the phone didn’t get extremely hot. Granted, I’m not playing COD or anything, but BTD6 runs great, even with friends! And on that note, an active stylus works amazing!The only complaints I have are minor.The “battery usage” graph is accessible if you search for it, but there is no link in the battery menu, and it doesn’t continually monitor the battery usage. If you could add that in an update or something, that would be amazing!The power and volume buttons could be moved up the side a bit more or bring the power button flush, I keep clicking the power button when I’m trying to put it in my pocket or just moving it around as the power button is dead center on the side of the phone and protrudes a little.The back button, in 3 button navigation, triggers my OCD because the stem of the arrow isn’t centered. Might be a design thing, I don’t know, just not my taste.And finally, as mentioned above, the auto rotate. About 10% of the time, the phone will not rotate to full screen. Not sure whats going on, but simply closing the app and re-opening gets auto rotate to work most of the time. Once I had to restart the phone to get it to work again.Over all, I gave a 99.9% because it is an amazing phone with lots of features. I would recommend this phone to anyone who is looking for an unlocked phone and plans on using it for years.
