BlackShark 5 Pro

Starting with one of the most important specifications when it comes to gaming smartphones, we find identical screens in the three modelsand that although inherited from its predecessor without any changes, they continue to offer us a huge reproduction surface, with an AMOLED panel that will not only offer us better image quality and colors, but is also completed with a refresh rate of 144Hz and a touch sample rate of up to 720Hzensuring maximum performance for games.

Although even more important to take advantage of this and the rest of the phone’s utilities, it is undoubtedly the processor. And it is that one of the variants of these Black Shark 5 has a different chipset, including up to the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 in the case of the Pro model. Additionally, the three models have minimum configurations of 8 GB of RAM, as well as 4,650 mAh batteries with support for an impressive 120W fast charge.

Thus, we will find some small differences in the rest of the specifications, such as internal storage, limited to only 128 GB in the case of the base model. Although the biggest change we will find in the cameras. Although the three terminals will have a triple configuration, both the base model and the RS will focus on a 64 MP main sensor, while the Pro variant will include an improved 100 MP sensor. However, it never ceases to amaze us that although the three terminals have secondary wide-angle and macro lenses, the medium model is the only one that has a slightly reduced secondary lens up to 8 MP wide-angle. Something that, for some reason, will correct being the only one of the terminals to include a 20 MP front camera. (leankitchenco.com/)
