About this deal

In the past, we’ve been positively surprised by the photography experience delivered by some Black Shark phones – although we’ve been disappointed by other handsets, too. The problem is that the phone doesn’t have built-in magnets like the iPhone’s MagSafe system – instead, you have to attach a magnetic sticker to the rear of the phone. Our favorite issues this time included the volume rocker changing the sound of audio, but not the icon that’s meant to show you how loud your music is; the notification to indicate that the triggers are in their pop-up position appearing even when they’re not; and background apps (including music players) randomly turning off. Main Camera Capture every moment: For the very first time, we used a 108MP camera on our gaming phone, to offer ultra-clear photos in every shot.

Our mention earlier that the phone doesn’t break a sweat was with reference to the fact we experience no lag or stuttering. The Black Shark 5 Pro is equipped with the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset with 8GB/12GB/16GB of RAM and a best-in-class thermal design. This can help you improve your gaming experience to a fair degree – but it doesn’t quite offset the overheating problems. The Black Shark 5 Pro might not redesign the wheel, but it ticks all the boxes for gamers: it has a buttery smooth 144Hz refresh rate, top-level performance, gaming-specific features like magnetic triggers and gesture-activated shortcuts plus much more. com Somos vendedores de marketplace de eletrônicos móveis desde 2014, oferecemos principalmente smartphones, tablets e acessórios.Before I even started gaming on the Black Shark 5 Pro, I was compulsively sliding the buttons up and down, and pressing them with reckless abandon. Charge your phone to 100% within 15mins in Ultimate Mode, or take 24mins in Even Mode to balance the heat dissipation and charging speed. Black Shark parent company Xiaomi has a general update commitment of three OS upgrades and four years of security updates, but it’s not yet clear whether that expends to the Black Shark 5 Pro. Swipe in from the top corner of the screen, and the gaming menu is loaded with options, from trigger allocation – so you can decide what your left and right triggers do, to macro recording so that you can capture a sequence of on-screen presses and more.

Undercutting the priciest gaming phone competition, the Black Shark 5 Pro marries high-end features like a 144Hz screen and Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 power with physical shoulder buttons and gaming phone styling. That’s still a decent capacity, but it’s not quite the 6,000mAh battery of Asus’ top-end gaming phone, and that’s evident in daily use.There's no getting around the fact Xiaomi's gaming interface lacks a bit of polish, and is generally heavy. In fact, remove the rear decal and the small LED panel and you’d have what looks like a standard mid-range Android phone, with a raised rectangular camera bump on the back, volume rocker on the left, power button and fingerprint scanner combo on the right, and an USB-C port exactly in the same spot as it is on every other phone. A flick will see little triggers pop out, ready for use in gaming (and a few other functions, such as a shutter for the camera).

Being a top-end gaming phone, it should come as no surprise that the Black Shark 5 Pro has top-end internals to match. We advise that if you are unsure of the condition or specification of your device, please contact us.Besides triggers, the Black Shark 5 Pro can also use other inputs – like shaking the phone – to perform other actions, making for a versatile gaming experience that gives you the edge in online competitive gameplay. Clipping the wings of these features – say, by heading into settings to turn down the refresh rate or reduce screen brightness – might help you claw back some extra hours; but this isn’t an ideal solution. com We are mobile electronics marketplace seller since 2014, we offer mostly smartphones, tablets and accessories. Portrait mode offered a fix to a degree, although its artificial background blur was rather overzealous in blurring our hair.

While the phone still has all the quirks of a typical ‘gamer’ aesthetic, including bold lines and icons donned across its rear, it’s completely smooth to the touch with a nice matte finish that feels good in the hand and provides extra grip. You'll also be clearing out your drawers and stopping your broken Apple iPhone from ending up in a landfill.

We're similarly impressed by the selfie camera, which captures good-looking, flattering, yet detailed images. Sandwich" three-dimensional heat dissipation structure, anti-gravity dual VC liquid cooling system (5320 square mm VC total area, graphite sheet, phase change material, graphene, etc.New: A brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged item in original retail packaging (where packaging . You can run titles with detailed graphics and still expect a solid 60fps gaming experience (or up to 144Hz, if the game supports it). Now, macro cameras are usually pretty rubbish, but Xiaomi's telemacro camera examples, as introduced on the Xiaomi 11 and Redmi Note 10 Pro are great. As for the phone it's fast great for games, feels sturdy doesn't get hot unless you play graphic intensive games for a while. Of course, the flip side is that the phone features the same 13Mp, 120-degree ultra-wide camera as its predecessor.
