The successor of the Black Shark 2, the Black Shark 2 Pro has recently launched in Malaysia, with the aim to fight in the gaming smartphone market once again.
Rundown
The Black Shark 2 Pro is a mean machine, packing a frightening spec sheet and a fierce design that didn’t stray too far off the Black Shark 2’s design language. The devices comes in 3 colors, Shadow Black, Iceberg Grey and Gulf Blue.
Specs features the latest Snapdragon 855+ SoC, with up to 12GB of LPDDR4x RAM and up to 256GB of UFS 3.0 storage.
The camera setup is in line with the gold standard, coming in with a 48MP f/1.8 Sony IMX586 sensor and a secondary 12MP f/2.2 telephoto sensor, while there’s a 20MP front-facing camera for selfies. Video capabilities scale up to 4K/60fps and up to a staggering 1920fps super slow motion video recording (64x).
Following the Black Shark tradition the Black Shark 2 Pro is bundled with a side-attached game controller to start you off, with additional controllers available for purchase.
The Black Shark 2 Pro has a generous 4,000mAh battery pack with support for 27W fast charging using USB Type-C. The 3.5mm audio jack has been omitted as well, but there’s an audio dongle in the package so you don’t have to worry.
