In Apex Legends Mobile, my game of the moment, I can shoot 5 times in a row with my semi-automatic rifle by pressing the “shoot” button only once. The 20 MP selfie camera here does so-so, passing in exposure and skin tones. The auto-beauty kicks in aggressively and almost any level of clarity got compromised with smudginess that can’t be saved with even studio lighting. It was a long, painstaking stock ROMs process for the sensor to focus on patterns and subjects, and after that, only to realize that the blurs were too aggressive for my liking, regardless of lighting conditions. We’re not using the Black Shark 4 for any serious photography anyway. The 6.67″ display is sleek and tall, plenty of screen real estate for all my gaming.
Unsurprisingly, everyone wants to check powerful phones using the AnTuTu benchmark. After all, you have spent much to get that high-end gaming phone or the best camera phone. The competition these days is attaching a high-end professional… In terms of Wi-Fi, the Black Shark 4 is on a good level and is on par with other gaming phones thanks to Wi-Fi 6 support.
As for the 8MP ultra-wide and 5MP macro, photos taken were often lacking in detail and, oddly enough, less saturated than what the main lens produced. I will say that the ultra-wide did a decent job at preventing any lens distortion, making landscape photos appear more natural. There’s a mix of colors for the Black Shark to process and the camera does a fairly decent job at it. The flowers are vibrant, the petals of the rose are detailed and distinct, and to top it all off, there’s a natural blur behind the bouquet. While the Black Shark gave the flowers a little more saturation than how they look in real life, the picture is good enough to share.
- This way the users can chose freely between different ID4me providers and can also change the provider anytime.
- Xiaomi’s latest mobile comes with amazing specifications and price in USA.
- In it, there are toggles that let you take advantage of this phone’s many impressive specs, like its 720Hz touch sampling rate, or a “Ludicrous Mode,” that pushes the specs to their limit.
It does fall into the same traps as other gaming phones, such as the battery is lacking, the camera is dull and hardware design is very much gamer-esque. The Red Magic 6S Pro is the closest contender to the Black Shark 4 Pro in the same price bracket. Getting your hands on one will set you back about $600 for the base 12GB/128GB model. You get a newer Snapdragon 888+ chip instead of Black Shark’s older SD 888 processor. It comes with an impressive 165Hz AMOLED display, a 5,000mAh battery, 65W fast charging, a 720Hz touch sampling rate, and one of the best cooling systems that I have ever seen.
