Review of smartphones Xiaomi Black Shark 3 and Xiaomi Black Shark 3 Pro

Xiaomi today is a whole corporation producing not only smartphones, but also engaged in the implementation of various nano - technologies. One of the latest, for example, was the release of a blanket with intelligence. It is able to create the optimal temperature for the person using it.

Not so long ago, Xiaomi introduced new models of its phones: Xiaomi Black Shark 3 and Xiaomi Black Shark 3 Pro.

The manufacturer declared these samples as gaming smartphones.

They amaze with their capabilities, which include:

• large diagonal screen;
• processor with excellent power;
• high capacity battery.

Now let's take a closer look at each model.

 

Xiaomi Black Shark 3

As already mentioned, this model belongs to the gaming one. And then the question arises: "why do we need this view, if now all smartphones are playing all the games?" This is true, but if we look at pre-orders, more than 3 million people ordered it in China alone. Let's start to understand its popularity.

Appearance

The case design is truly unusual. For its color design, manufacturers have chosen 4 colors:

• the black;
• silver;
• Gray;
• bright pink.

The first thing that catches your eye is the name of the partner company - Tencent Games - on the back of the case. It is a huge Chinese holding company that produces games and invests in high-tech projects. Further, above this inscription, you will see a magnetic connector. Xiaomi at the presentation showed several accessories that connect to the phone. First of all, this is an external gamepad, and secondly, there is an 18 W charger and an external cooler designed to cool the phone. All of the above is not included in the kit and is purchased additionally.

The phone weighs 222 grams, which is quite weighty. Case thickness - almost 10 mm.

On the right side there is a power button, below - a toggle switch, it is designed to launch the gaming environment from where you can launch games. All purchased toys are collected here. From here, you can adjust the quality of your games based on your phone's power consumption. On the left side are the volume buttons, and above are slots for 2 nano - sim - cards. There is no additional memory card tray.

At the back is the main unit of 3 cameras and a flash. The front of the smartphone is represented by a huge screen with a fingerprint scanner under the glass. The screen comes immediately with the factory film. The speakers are located at the top and bottom. There is a front-facing camera hidden near the top speaker, which we will talk about below.

Screen

The display diagonal is 6.67 ”inches. It's really huge. Frequency is one of the most important things, and unfortunately only 90 Hz here. The developers stated that despite the low screen frequency, the sensor is 270 Hz. Compared to the same iPhone, this value is less for the latter.

The next moment is the response to pressing the screen. It only takes the phone 24 milliseconds to process the request. This is very small and especially important for gamers.

Memory

The operational one can be either 8 GB or 12, while the built-in one is 128 or 256 GB.

Camera

64MP main camera, 13MP wide-angle camera. There is also a third sensor for 5 megapixel portrait photography. The front camera allows you to take selfies of not bad quality, due to the camera resolution of 20 megapixels.

As for video filming, there are some tricks here. Here 4K, which means you can write 30 frames per second or 2 times more, in Full HD quality - 200 frames.

Battery

For a modern gadget, this is the most important parameter. There is quite an impressive volume here, allowing you to work without recharging for about 2 days. The battery capacity is 4720 mAh. The wireless charging device is connected via a magnetic connector. The manufacturers claim that there is a fast charging option that can charge the phone up to 50% within 15 minutes. A little over half an hour is enough for a full charge.

Due to the fact that the phone tends to heat up due to excessive gaming activity, an improved cooling system is used here.

The cost of this smartphone starts at 37 thousand rubles.

Specifications

• large screen size;
• original design;
• high resolution sensor.

• for some, the size may seem cumbersome.

 

Xiaomi Black Shark 3 Pro

The power level of the smartphone allows it to reach the leading lines of the rating of its competitors. This model differs from the previous one in several parameters, which we will now consider in detail.

Appearance

The design is made in the spirit of this company and this series. Glass and metal were chosen as materials for the case. On the case lid there is a logo in the form of the letter "S" typical of this model. There are 3 chambers in the upper part. They are combined into a triangle with rounded corners. The same triangle is located at the bottom. It houses a special magnetic connector, the same as in the previous model. By weight, the phone is heavier and weighs 30 grams more than its predecessor

The smartphone is presented in just two colors:

• the black;
• silver.

A distinctive feature of the sample is the presence of additional mechanisms for the game, which are put forward at the touch of a button. They make it possible to play not only with the thumbs, but also with the index fingers, which gives more opportunities in the game. In addition to this cool option, gamers have the opportunity to connect an additional joystick stick and a cooler to cool the system.

Screen

The display diagonal is 7.1 ”. The resolution is 3120x1440 pixels. The screen is able to maintain brightness and contrast in the sun, the same as in low light.

There is a sensor under the screen that reads the fingerprint data.

The top bezel houses the front camera and speaker. In terms of frequency, this model has the same performance as the previous sample - 90 Hz. Sensory - 270 Hz. When you touch with one finger, the request is processed in 28 milliseconds, with a few - in 24 milliseconds.

The picture displayed on the screen is rich, vivid and accurate. Also, there is no flicker that can irritate the eyes.

Compared to the previous model, this one has a slightly larger size. But, despite this, it does not cause inconvenience when playing or watching social media feed. Fits comfortably in the hand.

Camera

The smartphone has three main cameras, the same as in the previous review sample:

• 64 megapixel for superior quality photos and videos.
• 13 megapixel, wide angle (viewing angle is 120 degrees). It is also used when shooting a panorama.
• 5 MP is used for portrait photography.

All these 3 components allow for 4K video recording. The speed is the same as in the previous sample.

In addition, there is a front-facing camera with the same technical specifications as the previous model.

Memory

The RAM has the same characteristics as the model that we considered earlier, but the size of the built-in memory has increased significantly and already represents a volume of 256 MB and 512 MB. There is also no additional slot for a memory card, although there is no need for it here, because the amount of memory allows you to satisfy any needs.

Battery

In terms of capacity, the battery of this model is 5000 mAh. This value is divided into two battery cells by different numerical parameters. It takes only 12 minutes to charge half of the battery's capacity, and 35 minutes to fully charge. This is all done with a 65W charge.

A magnetic connector on the back allows you to connect a wireless charger. This is an excellent solution for those who do not want to be distracted from the game process by putting the phone on recharge in the usual way. We can say that the manufacturers have provided enough nuances for the smooth use of the smartphone.

Specifications

The average price for this device will be 44,000.

• large battery;
• good build quality of the case;
• a screen that allows you to more enjoy the picture.

• not identified

Conclusion

Representatives of their brands Xiaomi Black Shark 3 and Xiaomi Black Shark 3 Pro cope with the declared characteristics with dignity. In view of this, their price is an order of magnitude higher than those of models that may have the same functionality. But, friends, the quality of this manufacturer speaks for itself. Guided by the main parameters of these smartphones, we note the great demand for their purchase. Despite the fact that the management announced the release only at the beginning of this month, pre-orders beat all records in terms of their performance. We also note that Xiaomi is not going to stop at this and in the future we are waiting for more updated versions of these models. Well, let's wait impatiently.
