This smartphone with a good camera and battery is unique in its armored body, which is not afraid of falling into water to a depth of one meter and up to 30 minutes, as well as washing with hot water under pressure.
And Doogee S90 is interesting for its modular device. On its back there are contacts that allow you to connect:
- Additional battery capacity of 5000 mAh;
- The module is like a gamepad;
- Modulation radio, operating in the range of 400-480 MHz;
- Camera module with f / 1.8 aperture and 131 ° ultra-wide lens for night shooting. According to the manufacturer, with such a camera, photosensitivity will increase 12 times.
Compared to the Doogee S80, the resolution of the rear camera “grew up” in the new model; earlier it was 12 MP and 5 MP, respectively. Under good lighting conditions, pictures are obtained with high brightness and contrast. However, in poor lighting, the photo begins to "make noise", which is why this model was only in 10th place on our list.
The eight-core MediaTek Helio P60 processor, which is very popular in the mid-price segment, has no problems with multitasking and modern games.
pros: the battery supports fast charging, there is a button on which you can assign any action when the screen is active.

Specifications:

With the help of the A series, Samsung is fighting against competitors on all fronts. The A70 is designed for users who need a large display, a great camera and superior battery life.
The 6.7-inch Super AMOLED display with minimal bezels and a small tear-like notch offers ample space for viewing multimedia content.
Galaxy A70 has replenished the growing ranks of mobile phones based on Snapdragon 675. The chipset provides an excellent balance between performance and battery life. And games like PUBG go to the Samsung Galaxy A70 at high graphics settings.
The 4500 mAh battery installed in the Galaxy A70 ensures that the device works easily full time, and this is the worst case scenario. At best, you can count on 2-3 days without recharging.
The triple camera installed in this model is a rarity for smartphones below 40 thousand rubles. Depending on the setting you have selected in the camera application, it will take photos in 32 MP or 8 MP mode. It can also shoot video in slow-mo mode with a resolution of 720p and record videos with a resolution of 4K at 30 frames per second.
However, this rear camera tends to overexpose pictures to make them look brighter. And noise reduction gives the image the effect of watercolor painting. Therefore, you can give Galaxy A70 only 9th place in the selection.
pros: There is a 3.5 mm audio jack, a quick charger of 25 watts is included.
Minuses: Galaxy A70 is an all-plastic smartphone with ultra-glossy rear. It looks good, but scratches and abrasions quickly appear on the back cover.

While Samsung and Honors with Huaweis reign in the mid-price segment of smartphones with good cameras, then Xiaomi is the leader among budget camera phones.
And if you do not believe that there are inexpensive smartphones with a good camera and battery for less than 20 thousand rubles, then study the capabilities of Redmi Note 7 Pro, and your opinion will change.
Its main 48 MP camera has an aperture of f / 1.8, and the secondary 5 MP camera is designed to blur the background in portrait shots.

The main camera of the Redmi Note 7 Pro has a night mode, as well as AI color correction algorithms.
Compared to Redmi Note 7, the model with the PRO prefix has significantly improved dynamic range, much more noticeable details that are in the shadows. And the night mode perfectly shows itself not only in complete darkness, but also simply with a lack of sunlight. Redmi Note 7 Pro does not reach the level of Huawei P30 Pro, however, for a state employee the result is simply amazing.
It has already become a good tradition to equip modern smartphones with fast charging function, and this model is no exception in this regard. Qualcomm Quick Charge 4 is able to charge the device up to 100% in 1 hour 55 minutes.

Stylish, fashionable, youth - this is how Honor, a sub-brand of the Chinese giant Huawei, is positioned in the world market. “And inexpensive,” we add, comparing the parameters of this smartphone with competitors.
View 20 has everything you need not only for fans of mobile photography, but also for gamers. It has a large 6.4-inch screen that processes 1080p + content and a powerful HiSilicon Kirin 980 processor. And it is also one of the few phones that can work with Fortnite at 60 frames per second.
The rear 48-megapixel camera has a macro mode, and in the settings you can select the desired resolution - 12 MP, 48 MP or 48 MP with increased definition using AI. The latter option is suitable for stationary objects, since it takes several seconds to work.

- On the back cover of the device you will find as many as three cameras, which in general have a staggering amount of megapixels - 68MP.
- The main 40 MP camera is complemented by a 20 MP black and white lens, which helps in image processing, reducing noise and improving dynamic range.
- The third 8MP rear camera with 3x zoom allows you to zoom in without using digital zoom. And this means that the image quality is almost not affected.
As a result, you get a powerful, beautiful, long-lived device that costs less than the Huawei Mate 20 Pro. However, it is slightly inferior to the Mate 20 Pro in speed, as it is equipped with the ex-flagship HiSilicon Kirin 970 chipset.

Crowned by this trio of cameras located behind, a new star is an ultra-wide 16-megapixel lens with an f / 2.2 aperture. It expands the Mate 20 Pro's feature set, allowing you to take a wider range of shots from a limited perspective. Even with ordinary shooting, this makes life easier when you try to place many large elements on one photograph.
Due to the large capacity of the battery, you can not charge it up to a day and a half, even if you shoot the whole day away.

- ToF camera (time-of-flight) to determine the depth that is needed to create portrait photographs.

As for the battery, the powerful 4200 mAh will provide you with a whole day of active work, and by the evening another 15-20% of the charge will remain.
Huawei removed the “forehead” and “chin” from the screen to a minimum, leaving only a small drop-shaped cutout to accommodate the front camera.
