Doogee is back with a new rugged handset that sports a dual-screen design but, unlike the V20, the S98 is driven by a MediaTek processor, namely the octa-core Helio G96. Those eager to grab one can already place their orders on AliExpress and Doogeemall, while shipments are scheduled to begin in late April.

In addition to the above, it is also worth mentioning that the Doogee S98 comes with a separate fingerprint scanner, which is located on the side, but not on the power button. Just like many of its siblings, this handset also features a customizable Easy Key. Last, but not least, any potential buyer should keep in mind that Doogee promises three years of software support.
