Xiaomi Black Shark, the 'gamer' smartphone, presented by the Chinese company
The Xiaomi Black Shark is presented, a smartphone that has been labeled 'gamer', to see if that way they cajole people and sell more terminals and incidentally, they charge it a little more expensive.
The arrival of Fortnite and PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds on the smartphone seems to be accelerating the arrival of smartphones for gaming on the market. Although these are very limited in performance, brands seem to want to impose the name gaming on their terminals, as has happened in the PC market, since this term means raising the price quite a bit and thus making more cash. After the Razer Phone, Xiaomi has presented the Black Shark, a mobile phone, supposedly, to play, although it remains to be known what and under what conditions.
This terminal will have a 5.99-inch IPS screen and a FullHD + resolution of 2160 × 1080 pixels @ 60Hz, which would offer a maximum brightness of 550nits and cover 97% of the sRGB space. The processor that gives life to the terminal is the SoC Snapdragon 845, which will arrive accompanied by 6GB or 8GB of RAM and capacities between 64GB and 128GB. To give this monster autonomy, a 4000mAh battery has been installed, which will last a while if we start playing with the mobile.
You could not miss a good camera or in this case, two rear cameras which have a resolution of 12 + 12Mpx with an aperture f / 1.7, while the front camera is 20Mpx, so you can take a nice selfie when you lose . It has a fingerprint reader on the physical Home button and to avoid excessive heat from playing, a large aluminum heatsink has been arranged, which runs along the entire terminal motherboard and has a flat copper heatpipe to help dissipate the heat.
This terminal is a simple smartphone, with a striking design, which has been labeled 'gamer', to sell more, charge more and to make it stand out, but come on, a smartphone to play ... well look. This terminal will vary between € 390 and € 450, depending on the hardware and will be in silver and black or green and black. We can attach a command that costs € 23 and that will be free for the first 50.000 buyers.
Despite the fact that they sell you said mobile for a premium price for including the adjective gamer in the box, it is still cheaper than a Samsung or an iPhone of equivalent specifications, and for the benefits it offers it is a very acceptable price, it is also appreciated the heatpipe connected to the rear, my current Mi4 overheats which is nice if you put it in max mode. performance.
And as for the brand, I have no complaints, I gave my father my xiaomi RedMi (which at the time was called RedRice) and he still has it despite being almost 5 years old. I have the Mi4 4G with 2GB of RAM, and at the moment I do not change it, it is still a cucumber that does not suffer with any app, the only bad thing is to hit the turbo button and put the processor at its maximum of 2,5 GHz that it consumes the battery in the blink of an eye, apart from the fact that temperatures soar, otherwise the quality / price ratio of their mobiles is unsurpassed.
