When we talk about budget smartphone, the first one that comes to mind may be the Redmi 2 or Honor series. However, Doogee is about to redefine what is affordable with the $49.99 Doogee X5.
Why MediaTek’s MT6580 processor?
As quad-core processor market is decreasing，DOOGEE X5 could be a milestone product for DOOGEE or even the entire industry. It would be the first smartphone to make MT6580 chip known to the world.
The quad-core processor is a new product from MediaTek targeted at the low cost budget segment. DOOGEE is aiming to make X5 the most affordable 3G quad-core smartphone for the global users.
What will $49.99 bucks get you?
Low price doesn’t mean below-average manufacturing. In fact, DOOGEE X5 comes with quite decent specs like 5-inch HD screen, 2,200mAh battery and a 5MP rear camera.
It’s also quite a handsome model, coming in black and white color options. The overall design doesn’t involve complicated craftsmanship so that it’s ideal for mass production.
There will be a “lower priced” 4G version of the Doogee X5 with a MediaTek MT6735.
How does DOOGEE benefit from $49.99 bucks?
According to DOOGEE’s CEO and sales director, DOOGEE isn’t planning to make money from X5. That sounds crazy. But it’s true. All they wish is for more retailers and users to know DOOGEE and DOOGEE smartphones, thus developing new clients and gainning more market shares.
With such a low price and decent specs, we have every reason to believe it’ll stir ripples in the market for the coming months.
