Mobile World Congress 2015: Mockodile Heaven!

As many of the readers of this blog know, I am a fan of fake crocodile on my devices. Whether it is a red mockodile with white finish on my Samsung S5 or an external case on my Nexus devices, the plastic hide is a favourite of mine.

Today at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona I came across a thing of beauty. Something that transcends the soul of a spirit mockodile: a device with uncanny resemblance to Vertu devices made out of brown mockodile.
The device in question is the Doogee Titans2 DG700. If you aren't sold on looks and feel alone, you should be. What are the specs? Irrelevant question in my opinion, but here they are anyway:

  • 4.5" qHD 540x960 IPS display
  • MT6582 quad core processor
  • Dual Standby microSIM
  • Android 5.0 (where 5.0 is handwritten in crayon)
  • 8GB storage / 1GB RAM (expandable with MicroSD)
  • 8.0 MP back / 5.0 MP front cameras
  • Mahoosive 4000 mAh battery
Sadly the lovely rep for Doogee, Vivian, could not sell me the demo device which didn't turn on and I'll have to order one online. 

The mockodile jamboree didn't stop there. I came across the stand of Italian accessory makers Celly, who had a mockodile pyramid display.
The future is bright, the future is mockodile.
