Doogee S100 review: A camping-lantern-bright rugged phone with a 22,000 mAh battery.
A power station that makes calls.
S100 abandons any pretense of being a normal phone — a 22,000 mAh battery that lasts a week and charges your other gear, IR night vision, a camping light and military-grade sealing, all in a 430 g brick. For overlanders, site crews and off-grid trips it replaces a power bank and a flashlight; everyone else need not apply.
