First unboxing and review of the Doogee Shoot 1 camera

Doogee it is a different brand. If we are looking for a mid-range terminal as cheap as possible, it is very likely that we have come across a smartphone from the company along the way. However, what makes the Doogee phones stand out is that Each new series of smartphones that they bring to the market always has a “something” that makes them special. Different from the rest of its competitors.

One of the best examples is the Doogee Shoot 1, a smartphone that denotes the care with which the manufacturer has treated all aspects related to the camera Of the device: dual rear camera with dual flash and one wide angle front. Do you know of any other brand that offers similar features for just over $ 100?

Unboxing the Doogee Shoot 1

I am already anticipating that the rest of the aspects of the phone, such as design, display and the software They perfectly accompany the great dual camera that this Shoot 1 saw, but nothing better than taking a look at the first video of the terminal unboxing so that we can appreciate in more detail the general concept of the phone and the sensations it transmits to us:

As we can see in the video, the Doogee Shoot 1 has a screen with FullHD resolution5.5 inch, MT6737T Quad Core 1.5GHz processor, 2GB RAM, 16GB of internal storage, a generous 3300mAh battery, and of course:

• A 8MP front camera wide angle.
• Dual 13MP + 8MP rear camera with dual flash.

At this point we would be talking about a mobile phone that should be around 150 euros. This is precisely one of its strengths, and it is that although its usual price is already reduced (€ 123, about $ 129 to change), currently we can get a Doogee Shot for only € 106 (or $ 109 to change). A frankly difficult price to beat for smartphones with similar characteristics.

Dual camera and dual flash

There is no doubt that the camera is the main strength of this terminal, and no wonder. Its double rear camera has 2 lenses, a 13MP and a second 8MP camera, which performs support tasks. The primary function of the secondary camera is none other than to capture information about image depth when we are taking a wide aperture shot.

When we are using the wide aperture mode, we have the option to adjust that aperture, which allows us to achieve some effects bokeh very accomplished and of quality. The effect bokeh is the photographic technique that allows you to blur parts of the image (such as the background, for example) through the lens to highlight objects and people, and this is a function with which we can work very comfortably with this terminal thanks to the great quality of your lenses.

Pay attention because If in an oversight we cover any of the lenses with our finger, a warning will appear on the screen. Signal that we are using a dual camera with all of the law.

Front camera, 8MP wide angle 88 ° and mode beautiful

The front camera of the Shoot 1 also stands out with characteristics impossible to see in any other competitor in the range. The normal thing would be to find a 5MP camera that is little more than functional, but as I said at the beginning, Doogee has put a lot of care and dedication into the camera of Shoot 1 and it shows: the front camera features 8MP, with a wide-angle lens that achieves an 88 ° angle of view.

Thanks to the quality of the lens, we can also take pictures with very little noise even in low light situations. It offers the option of taking photos when we smile and even a fingerprint shutter. To round out the camera's set of functions, it also incorporates the face detection, thanks to which we will be able to do “beauty touch-ups” with an incredible level of personalization.

These tweaks not only serve to improve our selfies, but also allow us change the lip color, add eyeshadow, change the hairstyle and various types of customizations so popular with young women today. To give you an idea, we can even perform a breast augmentation!

There is no doubt that the manufacturer has worked very extensively in the development and development of the selfie camera. Proof of this is that also is able to adjust to skin color, especially if the person in front of you is colored.

Opinion and final balance of the Doogee Shoot 1

As we commented at the beginning the Doogee Shoot 1 is the first smartphone in the series Shoot, which stands out for its good value for money, offering technical specifications at a price that is difficult to match with the rest of the range competitors (remember that its price is a very tight € 106, about $ 109 at the change). But if we have to look at something about this Doogee Shoot 1, it is its camera. A great dual-lens, dual-flash rear camera with great bokeh effects, and a hyper-vitamin selfie camera that is very difficult to see around these parts.
