DOGEE, an alternative smartphone brand specializing in "rugged" models, has announced the launch of its new DOOGEE S98. Of course, the new model features the brand's signature extra-tough design and [rugged aesthetic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oukitel-wp210).

However, the DOOGEE S98 breaks new ground by introducing a variety of upgrades, most notably, the addition of a dual-screen display. Now, in addition to the phone's 6.3-inch FHD+ (2,340 x 1,080 pixels) waterdrop display -- carried over from DOOGE's previous model -- the S98 also comes equipped with a second, [circular smartwatch-like display](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-shark-gs3-ultra).

The first-of-its-kind display features a digitized touchscreen clockface and providers users with feedback regarding their phone's battery level, notification updates, music controls, and more. However, the innovations do not stop at the dual-screen display. Another standout feature of the new smartphone is a 20 MP night vision camera capable of capturing stills and videos in pitch-black environments.
