Cubot KingKong ES 3 Review: Rugged, Protected, Budget-Friendly
Source: Root Nation
Who might be interested in the Cubot KingKong ES 3? It is suited for users seeking a rugged, long-lasting, yet reasonably compact smartphone that does not resemble a heavy “brick” and remains affordable. Despite its modest resolution, the 120 Hz display performs well, and the device offers sufficient performance for everyday tasks. It will also appeal to fans of stock Android. While the KingKong ES 3 lacks a fingerprint scanner and higher-end cameras, expecting these features from an entry-level rugged phone would be unreasonable. Overall, for its price, the ES 3 represents a reasonable compromise.
