Before talking about the specifications and price of the Xiaomi Black Shark 4 Pro, we must point out that gaming smartphones have become a great place in the world of smartphones during the current period due to the fact that the number of users interested in mobile games is increasing day by day.

These phones have begun to achieve great fame in recent years because they provide the user with everything they want for an enjoyable gaming experience, a powerful processor, a smooth screen, a giant battery and super fast charging, and their importance has increased after the emergence of PUBG Mobile, code and many other games that require high graphics.

Flagship phones can certainly be used for games because they come with the best possible specifications, but what distinguishes gaming phones is that they come with a dedicated game mode, an internal cooling system, accessories for the gaming experience and many other advantages, as it contains everything that is found in other phones such as the camera and the ability to Making calls, etc.

Xiaomi Black Shark 4 Pro Price

The price of the Xiaomi Black Shark 4 Pro was revealed, which is 615 dollars for the standard version 8 + 256 GB, which is equivalent to 9650 Egyptian pounds, 2305 Saudi riyals, 2260 AED.

While if you want to upgrade the RAM capacity, there is a 12 + 256 GB version, which is sold for $ 690, which is equal to 10,820 Egyptian pounds, 2588 SAR, 2535 AED.

The higher version comes with a powerful internal configuration of 16 + 512 GB, which is sold at a slightly high price of 815 dollars - 12,780 Egyptian pounds - 3055 SAR - 2,990 AED.

The phone was revealed on March 23, 2021 and was officially launched in the Chinese market starting from March 30. One of the most prominent problems with the phone is its availability in the markets, as it cannot be purchased in many markets, including Egypt, and is not available in all countries of Europe and the Middle East.

Which represents a big problem for all users who want to buy the phone, so we hope that Xiaomi will solve this problem related to the availability of the phone in the market in order to be available to the largest number of users.

Design

The appearance of the Black Shark 4 Pro is completely different from the series of Black Shark 3. It has a thickness of 9.9 mm and a weight of 220 grams. Compared to Black Shark 3, it comes with a little lighter weight, but it is still a heavyweight gaming phone.

We have a 6.67 inch Full HD+ AMOLED screen. Thanks to the thin bezels surrounding the screen and the small hole that houses the front camera, the screen-to-body ratio is greatly improved.

Black Shark 4 Pro comes in three colors which are black, dark blue and silver. The Pro specification got a 12 + 256 GB version in black, but in fact it looks dark blue. the color.

The back panel comes with an X-shaped design in blue and black. The Black Shark’s “S” logo is located at the X junction, and the body of the phone will not be affected entirely by any fingerprints as it comes with a frosted back.

We have the rear camera module which consists of three sensors that are placed in the middle of the back of the phone horizontally, the user should take care and caution when placing the phone on a table or any hard surface. We have physical buttons on both sides of the phone in order to contribute to a better gaming experience which gives a nice click feel when used.

The phone comes with three microphones, two stereo speakers, and a 3.5mm headphone jack which we should definitely applaud as we were expecting Xiaomi to drop it as it is with all flagship phones. We have a fingerprint sensor installed on the power button and not under the screen even though it is an AMOLED model.

Phone accessories

Accessories are worth talking about separately. First we have a 120W charger attached, which is definitely a great fast charging speed and is the highest in any phone ever, that was to be expected, especially since the battery is the only factor that will directly affect the gaming experience, imagine the feeling of the player when the battery runs out of him while he is in the midst of a battle Garrison in Erangel in PUBG Mobile.

Battery

We have a 4500 mAh battery that can be fully charged in 15 minutes, making it a dream battery for any user and not just for gamers although the device will definitely heat up when using this super charger. For this reason, the phone comes with a smart charging feature, which can slow down the charging speed to significantly reduce the temperature of the phone when it is hot.

If you do not want to risk the battery charging with this super phone, you can use a 65W fast charger and buy it separately, but in return it will charge the battery in a longer time, the 120W charger can be used to charge your laptop so charging is one of the most prominent features of Black Shark 4 Pro.

Display

We have a 6.67-inch Super AMOLED display with a quality we all know etc. That's not what's exciting here but the feature that deserves praise for Xiaomi is the refresh rate. In a gaming monitor, the refresh rate standard is 144 Hz, and the price of these monitors can often reach or exceed $ 1,000.

Xiaomi has also included this feature in the Black Shark 4 Pro screen and we have a touch sensitivity rate of 720Hz, all of these factors ultimately leading to a smooth and flexible using experience which is the number one standard in any successful gaming phone.

In everyday use for the normal tasks of browsing the web and social media, this screen will do just fine.

We also have an “always-on display” feature and HDR10+ and the color tones can also be adjusted according to the user’s desire and this monitor supports variable refresh rate, and the refresh rate can also be set manually and choose between 60Hz, 90Hz and 144Hz.

When we raised the refresh rate from 60 to 90 Hz we felt a clear difference, but if the user is not playing heavy games like Asphalt 9 we advise him to always set the refresh rate at 90 Hz only in order to extend battery life and at the same time not sacrifice a large part of the visual experience.

Software and internal hardware

We have JOYUI 12.5 based on Android 11 operating system. We have most of the features of MIUI, but also some upgrades for games.

Since it is a gaming phone, only powerful internal hardware can be expected, which is what we already have here as the phone comes supported by the most powerful processor in the world at the moment, the Snapdragon 888 based on fast LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 internal storage, which are specifications we see in Most of the flagship phones of 2021 like Galaxy S21 Ultra.

So what about the actual phone performance? Amazing in every sense of the word, we tried PUBG Mobile on Ultra HD and did not notice any lag or any other problems, the phone also worked smoothly with the rest of the other heavy games, which is expected from a phone dedicated to games. With regard to the rest of the daily tasks, the user will not feel any shortcomings, regardless of the size of the application they use.

Camera

For a smartphone just for gaming, the photography experience will not be a deciding factor in the purchase decision or not.

However, the Black Shark 4 Pro comes with a triple rear camera where we have a primary sensor, the Samsung S5KGW3, which takes acceptable pictures saturated with colors and full of details, and we also have support for 4K video shooting at 30 frames per second.

We also have an 8MP ultra-wide lens which is an IMX355 sensor, it never disappoints us and we managed to take some good pictures. The camera performs in low light conditions rather well and there is a night shooting mode but it depends on the software so we don't recommend relying on it too much . There is a 5MP macro sensor which can take 3cm close-up photos of relatively average quality.

Black Shark 4 Pro Pros and Cons

  • Well-designed, especially the back panel with beautiful visual effects and the shape of the horizontally stacked rear camera module
  • Felt buttons on both sides of the phone for added gaming excitement
  • A screen that meets all the criteria for a perfect user experience from its Super AMOLED model to the leading refresh rate that makes your gaming experience smoother
  • A stable software full of features dedicated to games that will make the user more interactive with the phone
  • The most powerful processor ever at the time of this writing is to be expected in a gaming phone
  • Several versions in order to put many options for the user to choose from
  • A good and acceptable photography experience, unlike what some might think is a gaming phone and has bad cameras
  • Dual stereo headphones for the audio experience to be as distinct as the visual experience
  • Good battery, although its capacity may not seem like much, but the 120W fast charging can make up for it, did you ever imagine that there will come a day when we will find a phone that fully charges in just 15 minutes? Xiaomi excels here and pushes all boundaries
  • There is no protection layer on the screen which is a bit surprising
  • The phone is not easily available in the markets and we blame Xiaomi that it focuses only on the Chinese market
