The Doogee Y8c drops the 4G to become the cheapest teardrop Android phone ever!

While to some, a teardrop-shaped notch is just another hurdle to become quickly overcome with the advent of fully immersive bezel-less displays. It still marks an important landmark in trickle-down design features.

It's always good news when a once flagship feature becomes available on one of the cheapest phones available. OP6T eat your heart out! Just kidding, the OP6T is in another league, but we can't deny that the Doogee Y8c is a looker.

How has Doogee managed to trim the fat on the already super-lean Doogee Y8? What cost has slashing the price to a ridiculous £50 (60 USD | 53 EUR) had? Let's find out!

If you haven't already checked out the Doogee Y8 review, then do that now as these two phones share many of the same design & hardware features.

... The Doogee Y8c drops the price, drops the 4G ...

So let's take a look at the new Doogee Y8c and what is has to offer when compared to the Doogee Y8.

As always, if you have any questions? Leave a comment at the end.
