Hi,
I'm not so satisfied with my Garmin, and plan on using a "rugged" phone for my navigation. I checked some devices below 100€ and I'm thinking about buying a Doogee (S40 pro) or an Ulefone (armor x5 pro). Does anyone have experience with either Ulefone or Doogee...and are you satisfied with it?
Thanks !!

I've had a few doogee phone's. They are tough although fairly basic spec . What kills them for me is the speaker goes after a while.
I've had three:-
Titans 2 lasted 2 years
S40 lasted a month (got ran over)
S50 or 55 didn't quite last a year because the speaker went.
Make sure what ever you get has the latest g reception 4g or 5g or whatever it is as some of the doogees are 3g

Also if it breaks within a year the Chinese seller is guaranteed to weasel out of the warranty.

I tried a doogee at one point a couple of years ago. On paper it should have been excellent, in reality is was - to be kind - a bit crap ! It still works, but was re-purposed as a cordless home phone. Not sure if there's any xiaomi's in your price/ruggedness zone, but been impressed with the one I have - once you turn the silly adverts off.

I use an Oukitel WP5 on my bike, 8000mah battery so it easily lasts all day. Decent specs for the price, its not my main phone though.

Currently £110 on Amazon.
