The Black Shark 2 Pro for the Southeast Asian market
It's the direct upgrade of the Black Shark 2 that was announced in China last March.
Based on its specs, Black Shark 2 Pro is a beastly gaming phone. It still comes with the X-style antenna design for better signal reception, RGB logo at the back, and a liquid cooling 3.0 technology.
Black Shark claims that it uses a liquid-cooled plate and tube. It is designed to reduce the temperature of the CPU core by up to 14 degrees Celsius, 2 percent better than the 12 percent last year.
For the screen, it still has a VDE certified 60Hz 6.39-inch AMOLED panel with FHD+ 2340 x 1080 resolution and 240Hz touch-sensing. Under the hood, it is powered by the overclocked Snapdragon 855+ processor with improved Adreno 640.
To recall, the company also managed to reduce the touch latency down to 34.7ms versus 43.5ms of Black Shark 2.
It also has a massive 12GB RAM and 128GB or 256GB UFS 3.0 super-fast storage. For the battery, it has a 4,000mAh battery with a 27W fast charger.
At the back, there's a 48MP f/1.75 main sensor paired with a 12MP f/2.2 secondary camera. For selfies, it has a 20MP f/2.0 front-facing camera. The Camera app features the usual Photo and Video modes along with a Super Night Mode.
