More than a decade ago, Samsung introduced business smartphones with built-in projectors and “large cameras”, including the Samsung Galaxy Beam and Galaxy Camera. However, high costs and limited adoption kept them from becoming mainstream.
Now, Chinese brands like Doogee have revived and refined the concept, following rugged smartphones such as the Oukitel WP100 and 8849 Tank 2 Pro, that integrate projectors.
The V Max Play features an LED projector with 480p resolution and automatic focus, allowing users to project images and videos onto any surface.
Its dual camping light system enhances visibility in dark environments, a first in the rugged phone market, while an ambient RGB light adds versatility with mood lighting.
Powered by the MediaTek 24M (MT7300) 4nm processor, the V Max Play includes 12GB of RAM and 512GB of internal storage, while its 6.78-inch Full HD+ display has a 120Hz refresh rate.
The camera system includes a 108MP main sensor, an 8MP wide-angle macro lens, and a 20MP night vision camera, plus a 32MP front camera.
Running on Android 14, the V Max Play offers AI tool powered features for automation, image/video editing, and document processing while supporting dual-band WiFi (2.4/5GHz) and Bluetooth 5.4 for connectivity.
Like other rugged smartphones, it offers IP68 water and dust resistance with military-grade drop protection, ensuring durability in harsh environments.
