Xiaomi today is a whole corporation for the production of 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.

These samples were declared by the manufacturer as gaming smartphones.

They amaze with their capabilities, which include:

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

Now let's look at each model in more detail.

 

Xiaomi Black Shark 3

As already mentioned, this model refers to gaming.And then the question arises: “why do we need such a view, if now all smartphones are pulling 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 body design is truly unique. For its color design, manufacturers have chosen 4 colors:

• black;
• silver;
• grey;
• bright pink.

The first thing that catches your eye is that the name of the partner company, Tencent Games, is printed on the back of the case. It is a huge Chinese holding company that releases 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, secondly, an 18W charger and an external cooler designed to cool the phone. All items listed are not included and must be purchased separately.

By weight, the phone is 222 grams - quite weighty. The thickness of the case is almost 10 mm.

On the right side there is a power button, below is a toggle switch, it is designed to launch a gaming environment from where you can run 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 tray for a memory card.

Behind 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 a factory film. Speakers are located at the top and bottom.Hidden near the top speaker is the front camera, which we'll talk about below.

Screen

The display diagonal is 6.67 inches. He's really huge. Frequency is one of the most important things, and here, unfortunately, only 90 Hz. The developers said 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. The phone only takes 24 milliseconds to process the request. This is very small and especially important for gamers.

Memory

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

Camera

64 MP main camera, 13 MP wide-angle camera. There is also a third sensor for portrait shooting at 5 megapixels. The front camera allows you to take selfies of good quality, due to the camera resolution of 20 megapixels.

As for video shooting, there are some chips here. Here is 4K, which means it is possible to 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 that allows you to work without recharging for about 2 days. The battery capacity is 4720 mAh. The wireless charger connects via a magnetic connector. Manufacturers claim that there is a possibility of fast charging, which can charge the phone by 50% within 15 minutes. A full charge takes just over half an hour.

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 from 37 thousand rubles.

Xiaomi Black Shark 3 Pro

The power level of the smartphone allows it to reach the leading positions in 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 the material for the manufacture of the case. On the cover of the case there is a logo characteristic of this model in the form of the letter "S". There are 3 chambers in the upper part of it. They are united in a triangle with rounded corners. The same triangle is located at the bottom. It contains a special magnetic connector, the same as in the previous model. In terms of weight, the phone is heavier and weighs 30 grams more than its predecessor.

The smartphone is presented in only two colors:

• black;
• silver.

A distinctive feature of the sample is the presence of additional mechanisms for the game, which are put forward when a button is pressed. 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 non-saturated lighting.

Below the screen is a fingerprint sensor.

The front camera and speaker are located on the top bezel of the display. In terms of frequency, this model has the same performance as the previous sample - 90 Hz. Touch - 270 Hz. When making a touch with one finger, the request is processed in 28 milliseconds, with several - in 24 milliseconds.

The picture reproduced on the screen is rich, juicy and accurate. Also, there is no flicker, which 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 viewing social networking feeds. Fits comfortably in the hand.

Camera

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

• 64 megapixels, carrying out photo and video shooting of the highest quality.
• 13 MP, is wide-angle (viewing angle is 120 degrees). It is also used when shooting panoramas.

All these 3 components allow you to shoot video with 4K resolution. The speed is the same as the previous sample.

In addition, there is a front 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 is already a volume of 256 MB and 512 MB. There is also no additional slot for a memory card, although it is not needed here, because the amount of memory allows you to satisfy any need.

Battery

In terms of capacity, the battery of this model is 5000 mAh. This value is divided into two battery cells according to different numerical parameters.It takes only 12 minutes to charge half the battery capacity, and 35 minutes to fully charge it. All this is done using a 65W charger.

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