News & Reviews:   Doogee Ibiza F2

While the Samsung Galaxy S6 may not be able to actually crack walnuts, if you want a phone that can do that, there is always the Doogee Valencia2 Y100 Pro. Featuring a strengthened 2.5D Gorilla Glass protective layer 0.8mm thicker than normal, the smartphone is shown in a video being used to actually crack walnuts. You can check it out for yourself in the video in this article as the smartphone cracks multiple walnuts with no issues or cracks to the screen. Other tech specs are rather midrange though with a 64-bit 1.3GHz quad-core MediaTek MT6735 processor, 2GB RAM, 16GB storage and a 5-inch strengthened display with 720 x 1280 pixel resolution. Other tech specs and features include a 13MP rear camera with Sony sensor, 8MP front camera and 2200 mAh battery. It comes with Android 5.1 Lollipop and while there is no exact Malaysia pricing yet, it does go for just $129.99 (RM485). While it isn't yet available here at Doogee Malaysia, it may eventually make it's way here, especially if you're into tough smartphones. In the meantime you can always check out our review of the Doogee Ibiza F2 smartphone for now.

It is now almost customary for most smartphones coming from China now to have certain key features. This includes a metal frame on the sides, a custom interface that doesn't have an app drawer and looks like an Apple iPhone or other flagship smartphone. Surprisingly, the Doogee Ibiza F2 steps away from it's China-brand siblings for a light, thin and full-metal frame smartphone that we think could also be a great device for the gamer on a budget. Read on and find out why (along with some other details) below.

Returning back to the Doogee Ibiza F2, we go hands-on with this entry-level smartphone. Tech specs remain a 1.5Ghz quad-core MediaTek processor, 5-inch display, 4G LTE connectivity and 13MP rear camera while the pricing is actually RM669. In our unboxing video we mentioned that it is one of the few China-brand smartphones we've seen to have and all-round metal frame much like the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 complete with machined and chamfered edges. Does it feel as good as it looks? We find out in our hands-on video of the Doogee Ibiza F2.

While there are currently a lot of China-brand smartphones in Malaysia, it seems that there are even more that we have yet to see as we recently got our hands on the Doogee Ibiza F2 smartphone. Priced from RM669, this rather light device is one of the few China-brand smartphones we've seen to pack in an all round metal frame. Other tech specs include a 1.5Ghz quad-core MediaTek processor, 5-inch display, 4G LTE connectivity and 13MP rear camera. It also comes with a clear plastic back cover for a bit more added value.
