In an unexpected move, Chinese company Doogee has unveiled a new smartphone called the S119 that has caught the attention of tech enthusiasts with its unusual design. What makes this phone truly stand out is a circular display on the back of the device that closely resembles a real smartwatch.
This 1.39-inch AMOLED screen doesn’t just show the time—it also displays notifications, weather updates, music controls, and other quick-glance information. Essentially, users can access key data without needing to turn on the main screen.
Beyond this quirky feature, the Doogee S119 packs solid specs. It comes with a 6.7-inch main display with a 120Hz refresh rate, a MediaTek MT8788 processor, 8GB of RAM (expandable virtually up to 24GB), and 512GB of internal storage. The camera setup includes a 108MP main sensor, a 20MP night vision camera, and a 5MP ultra-wide lens.
Battery life is another highlight, with a massive 10,200mAh battery that supports 33W fast charging—enough to power the device for several days. The phone is also built for rugged use, with IP68, IP69K, and MIL-STD-810H certifications for resistance to water, dust, and impact.
All in all, by merging a smartphone with a smartwatch-style screen, Doogee has delivered a device that’s as unconventional as it is intriguing—a bold move that could inspire more hybrid designs in the mobile industry in the future.
