Fire 5 Pro: Smartphone with huge 13,000mAh battery doubles as a power bank

The Doogee Fire 5 Pro is a new smartphone that is now available for purchase on Amazon. It’s being offered by a marketplace seller, but Amazon takes care of the shipping. The asking price is $219 at the time of writing. Although the Doogee Fire 5 Pro has the "Pro" moniker in its official product name, it does have some major limitations. For instance, the MediaTek Helio G81 is a pretty slow SoC and only supports 4G and not the latest 5G cellular standard.

Limited memory and storage, but three card slots

The RAM has a capacity of 4GB, which is undersized by today’s standards. That said, the 128GB mass storage can be expanded with a microSD card. Another noteworthy feature are the three card slots, which means that users don’t have to choose between dual SIM or storage expansion. The Fire 5 Pro runs on Android 15, but prospective buyer’s shouldn’t expect any major software updates.

Large battery and power bank features

The battery has a very high capacity of 13,000mAh and can be charged at up to 18 watts. The Doogee smartphone further supports reverse charging, so it can basically act as a power bank and charge other devices with up to 5 watts. It features a main camera with a resolution of 13 megapixels, while the front camera offers 8 megapixels. Meanwhile, the 6.6-inch screen has a rather low resolution of 720 x 1612 pixels.

Durable design

Doogee also advertises a rugged design, as the Fire 5 Pro should survive drops from a height of almost 5 ft without major damage. It also meets the IP68 and IP69K requirements.
