There is a workaround for VR games and 360° videos that requires a PC connection. Use TrinusVR.NO, Gyroscope does not work correctly, I can't use VR games/software.

Phereo - download Side-by-Side images to Doogee Y6 Max 3D
Phereo is a cross-technology 3D photo-sharing platform. Go there to download Phereo TV and Android apps. Browse through the biggest collection of 3D photos.
http://phereo.com/
Phereo 3D Photo app does not have native 3D support for DOOGEE Y6 Max 3D. Only for well-known brands like HTC and LG. Therefore, DOOGEE Y6 Max 3D will be assigned with Anaglyph 3D viewing mode by Phereo´s automatic detection mechanism. Do not worry!
Go to Phereo Settings and switch 3D view mode from Anaglyph to Side-by-Side. Do not forget to switch Content from Only Safe to All. Then go back to the Main menu and click Explore. A galery opens with lots of 3D image thumbnails. Click to open a Side-by-Side image. At the bottom left there is the author and title. Click there to open Comments and Photo Info. A red button for Save Photo is available after Photo Info tab is selected.
Click in Save Photo to download an image to your storage/sdcard0/DCIM/Phereo/
Do you have a Micro-SD card? The image will be stored there with a JPS File Extension. To retrieve it use File Manager. Click on the file and complete the action with 3D Gallery. Wait a few seconds for the auto-stereoscopic photo to come in focus. Voilá!
Some 3D images have narrow viewing angles and may take up to 30 seconds to adjust to your inter-pupilary distance.
If for any reason there is a need to edit the 3D image with auto-alignment buy the 3DSteroid Pro version or do it manually in the free app. An alternative is to use Phereoshop software.

2.- Y6 Max 3D has no way to show up 3D photos, nor the integrated gallery, nor QuickPic (wich works on other 3D tablets/phones)
3.- I already have 3DSteroid Pro, but the same: it does not use 3d screen of Y6 Max 3D
1.- I have reasonable reasons to think that forcing any 3D app like phereo to show image like on a Gadmei tablet will work (I used Phereo on Gadmei 3D tablet), I have tested Eassee 3D and is working perfectly: is an app designed for a product that is a parallax screen protector wich I don't have. So it's only dividing horizontal resolution (1920) and take 1st row for left eye, 2nd for right, 3rd for left, 4th for right... (or inverted).Phereo 3D Photo app does not have native 3D support for DOOGEE Y6 Max 3D. Only for well-known brands like HTC and LG.

I am using a TAKEE 1 Naked Eye 3D smartphone. The Phereo app is set automatically to Anaglyph view mode. Trying to switch to native 3D mode is useless.
Eassee 3D has a very poor rendition of 3D videos. The stock 3D Video app of TAKEE 1 is amazing! Unfortunately, it does not play 360° videos.
QuickPic Gallery is underwelming for 3D photos. The stock 3D Gallery app of TAKEE 1 is gorgeous!
The reason for the under-performance of the replacement apps is their lack of Eye Tracking.
My advice is to ask Doogee for a 3D Gallery app with Eye Tracking.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I will not buy the Doogee Y6 Max 3D.

On my Y6 Max 3D video is awesome, it comes with 2 video players, one gets pixelated image and the other is amazing! you can't see no pixel on 3d videos, it's like holograms. And Eassee 3D is playing the same perfect 3d quality (but 3d youtube is not working)
Is 3DSteroid working on Takee 1? and 3d youtube?
There may be functional differences in display technologies between Takee and Doogee. Takee has an One Glass Solution (OGS) touchscreen. Doogee has a Glass+Film (G+FF) touchscreen. Their Eye-Tracking is different too.
TAKEE 1 is advertised as the World's first 3D Holographic smartphone from 2014/2015. Awarded IF Design Award 2015 and CES Innovation Award 2015. It has Eye-Tracking with two sensors which are located on both sides of the display. Top and bottom of the phone in vertical position. Left and right of the phone in horizontal position.
TAKEE 1 has two stock video players (3D and 2D) and two stock image galleries (3D and 2D). The 3D videos are awesome, like holograms too! The same for 3D photos.
Eassee 3D doesn't have an hologram rendition of 3D videos on TAKEE 1. However, there is a slight 3D effect.
QuickPic 3D Gallery also fails to impress because the images are not hologram-like on TAKEE 1.
Regarding 3DSteroid, I have turned on the parallax view mode on the stereo settings. However, it does not show an hologram like image on TAKEE 1. Maybe I have to tinker with focus point and interval for each image!
Unfortunately, 3D YouTube displays a parallel Side-by-Side video in 2D on TAKEE 1. It must be downloaded with SnapTube to internal memory in order to run the stock 3D Video player.
Am I spoiled by the Eye-Tracking and holograms? Nothing else pleases me!
There is also a stock online 3D Films player and ULIFANG, the only online service that provides 3D content and holographic content only for this TAKEE 1 phone. The ULIFANG shop has 60 or more Full 3D movies and many 3D games with Air-Touch/ Air-View/ Air-Gesture technology. The ULIFANG shop is once again available to TAKEE 1 users outside China.
Excellent news!
The manufacturer of the SuperD D1 Naked Eye 3D smartphone has exclusive rights to distribute 30 3D Films of DreamWorks Studios in Asia for this phone. Will Doogee sign a similar deal?

SuperD? Another 3D phone!!
I just purchased the Axon 7 Max and is amazing!! Great 3D, great 3d hub with full movies (even free) to stream or download, 3d photo community (some of the best 3D photos I have ever seen on 10 years), and (Chinese) videogames.
There's an avalanche of 3d news this months, so I created a blog: tridimensional.info I'm proud to say that there's more news every week than I can publish right now
I wish you like my blog, I accept questions/suggestions.
I didn't know that Takee 1 was so good, I will try to buy it too and publish a review on my blog.
PD: Maybe you can see 3d youtube on the browser, like the Nintendo 3ds (youtube app for 3ds doesn't support 3d, but you can see 3d videos browsing youtube with 3ds internet browser)

Will they provide more support for the y6 max?
I really love this phone, despite it's size and I know it can be even better.

Then you will enjoy the fresh news. Another smartphone with dual cameras will join the 3D push in the first quarter of 2017.
Bluboo Dual Soon Upgrades to Naked-eye 3D Display
http://thetechhacker.com/2017/01/11/bluboo-dual-soon-upgrades-naked-eye-3d-display/
Something I discovered with Axon 7 Max and chinese online services like iQIYI is 3D is very popular on China, I even have seen the chinese Got Talent in 3D.
iQIYI apps in Google Play ask for many permissions. Therefore, I'm reluctant to install it in Android. Google Chrome is unable to translate the official website of iQIYI. I wonder how you can navigate in Chinese. I have subscribed to your newsletter. Unfortunately, Doogee Y6 Max 3D has had a price hike. It is available in only a few online shops.

How to use VoLTE on y6 max ?? There's an opting to use the enhanced 4g LTE voice calling option, even on turning that on I am not able to use VoLTE calling. Please help me.
TriDef 3D Gallery, available from the play store works perfectly on the Doogee for photos as well as videos.
It does of course only look 3D if your phone is the 3D version with the Naked Eye 3D display.
If it is, you probably have to set the display mode of the TriDef app to "Column Interlaced"

Introduction
This is the DOOGEE Y6 Max.
Hardware
Together with the Y6, DOOGEE choose to release an over-sized version of it with a giant 6.5" screen, the Y6 Max. This is definitely a ph-ablet, not a smartphone, but its size isn't as bad as you might expect.
It is powered by a Mediatek MT6750T SOC clocked at 1.5GHz, with a Samsung S5K3L8 13MP Rear Camera and a GalaxyCore GC5024 (not Hynix HM553 as declared) 5MP Front Camera. Compared to the Y6, the Storage Configuration is similar, 3GB of RAM and 32GB of RAM, just in the middle between the Standard and the Piano Black Y6.
Unboxing
Packaging comes with many accessories: 1x Micro-USB Cable, 1x 5V/2A USB Charger, 1x Quick Start Guide, 1x In-Ear Earphones (medium quality), 1x TPU Cover, 1x Plastic Screen Protector, 1x SIM Card Tray Eject Tool, 1x Nano to Micro SIM adapter and the Smartphone (of course). A screen protector is already applied.
The Chassis is pretty well made, almost completely made of Metal (expect the upper and the lower bands) and feels solid, but considering its size it isn't so comfortable to be handled without the TPU Cover. Let's call it slippery.
As already said, this is a ph-ablet so you can't expect a compact device. It is 17.45x8.90x0.96cm, with thin bezels. It weights 234g, impressive considering that there are some 5.5 inches smartphones with almost the same weight.
On the front side there is the common 2.5D Curved Display and the upper front side of the device features the standard set of things: a Front-Facing Camera (GalaxyCore GC5024), an Earpiece, and the Sensors hole that includes Light, Proximity and Gesture Sensors. The Notification LED is not here, a bit disappointing.
On the lower front side there is the Touch Keys area, with Menu, Home and Back touch buttons. No Backlight is here.
On the back side there is the Unibody Metal Cover.
The upper rear side of the device features the Camera Sensor supported by a Dual-LED Flashlight (not Dual-Tone), a Fingerprint Scanner and the DOOGEE logo.
On the lower rear side there are some Logos and Words about the Device's Certifications, nothing else. The Speaker is positioned on the lower side of the device.
Device
Screen
I have no words to describe this screen. It is just great, with almost perfect color accuracy, high brightness and excellent white balance. Well Done DOOGEE!
Light Sensor supports smooth light changes, this is its maximum brightness.
Viewing Angles nearly as good as you would expect from an IPS screen, just slightly worse.
Camera
Just like many Smartphone released in the Q4 2016, also this one features a Samsung 3L8 13MP sensor, with PDAF. Photos Quality is decent, the amount of noise isn't as high as i would have expected but the image detail is pretty low, noticeable if you zoom the image.
"HDR off" on the left and "HDR on" on the right. HDR photos seems to be a bit better, but the amount of noise increases too.
Macro Photos look pretty good, almost impressive.
The Dual-LED Flashlight provides enough light to help the sensor in low-light conditions.
As regards Video Recording, 1080p videos are smooth, with an high level of details and no stuttering issue.
Front Camera records sufficient photos for video-chat and occasional shots. Also, it seems to be a Wide-Angle variant.
Audio
Speaker's Quality is impressive. Even though the amount of low frequencies is low, the sound quality is great. One of the best i have ever tested as regards Sound Quality. No issues with the Earpiece, perfect while in-call and to play Whatsapp Voice Messages.
As regards the Microphone, it is calibrated for any kind of usage, everyone was able to hear me correctly. There is no Secondary Microphone for Noise Suppression though.
GPS
This is where the Y6 Max has a weird behavior. It wasn't able to lock any satellite indoors, but outdoors it worked almost perfect with an issue: the GPS Signal was not stable at all. Sometimes, from 17 satellites it drops to less than 8. I hope to see some improvements with a software update.
Indoors on the left, outdoors on the right.
Telephony, Mobile Network & WiFi
DOOGEE, like some other brands, provides full european bands support, with 4G Band 20 (some other Chinese Smartphones don't have it). 4G Signal Reception doesn't seem to have any issues, stable and with decent speed.
3G Signal Reception is excellent, actually I never managed to get connected to the 2G Network of my Mobile Operator because there was always some 3G Signal available. (luckily there are no coverage issues here)
WiFi 5GHz is supported here, working sufficiently well with my 802.11n Dual-Band Connection. It isn't able to get full speed (100/20), but it is still a bit higher than 2.4GHz speed. Connected at 150MBps, i might have expected higher speeds.
Battery Life
I have measured the real battery capacity using my USB Tester, and, unlike previous DOOGEE devices, it seems that this time the real battery capacity is higher than the declared one. (declared 4300mAh, real ~4450mAh).
This is the Geekbench Battery Test, the battery runtime is as good as you would expect from a 4300mAh battery.
https://browser.primatelabs.com/battery3/392213
As regards battery charging times, the 5V/2A charger is enough to provide acceptable charging times, even though a Mediatek Pump Express charger would have been preferred.
Software
This is where this device loses its quality, seriously. DOOGEE choose to use, somehow, a so-called Dido OS (based on Android 6.0). This is a completely customized OS, similar to MIUI, but with lots of UI parts taken from iOS, and some words are badly translated into English. I do not agree at all with this choice, it reduces the Device's Quality and compromises the usage of the device.
Mediatek easy-to-use Gestures are still here, together with the usual Scheduled power on & off menu.
This is something i do not understand, there is a Gyroscope, but there is no Magnetometer/Compass. Weird.
The Fingerprint Scanner is accurate. I managed to unlock the screen almost everytime. As regards the unlock speed, it is instant.
2
NO, Gyroscope does not work correctly, I can't use VR games/software. And I was thinking that you could play VR games in 3D without glasses, but no. The only 3d I can see is videos (nor photos, nor VR, nor software like Phereo or 3DSteorid).1Development & Support thread: http://xdaforums.com/android/general/doogee-y6-max-development-support-t35096921This smartphone changed my mind for this company to the worst. I will never buy again that firm
1. Charging port broke after 25 days
2. GPS is not working freezes after a while
3. On speaker phone the Mic is not working the other party can not understand you
4. Wi-Fi in some routers can not reconnect. You have to reboot the router
5. Cameras are horrible even for cheap phone
6. Some times while using 2 sims after a call turns both sim off and on like having the airplane mode turned on for an instance
7. Fingerprint scanner is just a joke with more than 50% of the times missing to unlock the phone.
8. The firmware of the phone and their version of the OS is super limited and not functional. You have to reinstall a new launcher like nova.
9. It has not got dedicated buttons for miracast or change the SIM settings easily like lte/3g/2g you have to download other from the store.
10.. No real firmware update support no one is responding in emails, forum etc
Now I am using it as a small tablet reading news in the wc as is the only room that is meant to be used lol
Almost the same problems with smaller y6 piano that the digitizer on the top of the screen was not registering the touch response.
This company is just a joke.
