Xiaomi’s Black Shark 3-series gaming smartphones, Black Shark 3 and Black Shark 3 Pro, now have a successor. Black Shark 4 is the latest offering from the brand. As for the specifications, the new gaming smartphone sports a 6.67-inches IPS LCD with a screen refresh rate of 120 Hz. The display is thin and bezel-less, offering a screen resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels and 395ppi pixel density. In terms of performance, the device comes powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 octa-core processor that comes coupled with 8GB RAM.

The device comes with 8GB RAM for smooth multitasking performance. For smooth performance during high-end gaming, the handset is provided with an Adreno 660 GPU. The battery configuration is decent enough with a 4750mAh battery that comes powered by 65W fast charging support. The on-screen fingerprint sensor addresses the security concerns of the mobile.
