Black Shark 3 | Unboxing, Tour & PubG Review

Full tour of the Black Shark 3 gaming smartphone, including my review after lots of PubG Mobile testing to see how good it is for mobile games. If you're tempted by a dedicated gamer's phone like the ROG Phone 2 but you're on a tighter budget, the Black Shark 3 is a worthy choice for 2020. Check back soon for my big Red Magic 5G comparison, to see which is the best for gaming on the go.

For the benchmarking, I used GameBench:

As you'd expect, the specs are as premium as they come. A Snapdragon 865 chipset backed by 8 or 12GB of DDR5 RAM provides strong performance for PubG and other top Android titles. You have a 90Hz HDR10+ display for stunning visuals, plus a 280Hz touch response rate for instant feedback.

The Black Shark 3 also serves up some dedicated gaming features, although the accessories support isn't as strong as the ROG Phone 2. Still, you can get a respectable 5 hours of non-stop gaming on a battery charge, while the phone also stays respectably cool with non-stop play.
