Black Shark 3 Pro Unboxing & Review (In-Depth)
"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enI run Chris here so I've got with me the black Shack 3 Pro that I have been using for a while now and it's the larger version to the black Shack 3 that I just reviewed in the channel now this one what is different is it has a 2k screen a larger screen it is 7.1 inches it's still 90 Hertz and we also have a larger battery which is 5000 million hours and hardware mechanical triggers so is the pro version a better model well that's what I'm here to find out in this in-depth review by the way this unit was provided it's a loan unit from training Chen Jien so let's take a look first at what we get within the box right here so we've got a type CD USB cable a 65 watt charger so this is the same as the black shark 3 the non pro version now it will charge this phone in 55 minutes in my testing more on that later on in this particular in-depth review we're got a TPU case here now this does have cutouts for our triggers and all the buttons and it is all very good quality here it's great to see this included in the case there is a symmetry tool as well and a QuickStart guide and other material but that's all in Chinese oh and we do get this right here some black shark stickers so this is a large phone as expected 7.1 inches now that is probably going to be ideal for people who are coming from maybe the me max series or say the mate 20x that's the larger phones of course there but it is really really quite heavy 260 grams versus of 223 we have with the smaller black shark 3 but this is a six point seven inch screen of course versus that seven point one so the build of it very nice middle frame around the outside we have a metal volume up and down buttons here on the left hand side above it as the cemetery tool takes to nano Sims down the bottom we have sadly to stay type-c USB to spec okay now this does not support video out which to me is a big error with a gaming phone it should have video out so you can play it like a console plug it into a TV then and then on the right-hand side we've got our power button now this power button to me is in the wrong location and I'll show you why because when you first pick up the phone you've got to grab it and you go to place your thumb there and where is the button the button is a good 2 centimeters above that and it is really quite awkward I just think the design team didn't really think this one through now maybe the batteries in the way maybe there's the PCB in the way maybe it's because of the trigger buttons there as well why they couldn't do this but to me it's just kind of slightly annoying now those triggers on the top there they're in when you're not using them when you're not in the gamer mode and I do find them to be really quite cool well when you enable them they pop out there's like a little bit of a noisy r2 with the motors that pop them up and then you've got physical click in buttons hardware buttons not those horrible capacitive touch I mean competitive touch is good behind we of course just so much better there so my complaint really with the build it's just that power button location and then right at the top yes 3.5 millimeter headphone jack very good quality out of this one no complaints there and when we have a look at the front of the screen so it does have yes bezels top and bottom so 20 megapixel front facing camera but we do have a dual loudspeakers front firing ones now looking at the back here so this is very similar to the black shock 3 Pro that I reviewed by the way check out the review this one in the channel it just is in a different color and we have a blue accent right here so the silver they've gone with is very very prone to fingerprints okay you're gonna pick up a lot with this and in the middle along the back here middle strip grab us 5 the magnetic Pogo port charging connector so the cable is not included in the box it's an extra that we have to pay extra for of course and then our cameras on the back here so this glass is a little bit excessively large I think the triangular form of it but it does have a 16 megapixel Samsung gw1 sensor in there 13 megapixel ultra wide and a 5 megapixel camera for our depth information for portrait shots overall the build quality I really do like it I think it is solid there isn't absolutely no sharp edges flaws or anything and fitting off the price tag now the key feature of this phone is its displays so 7.1 inches it's a very nice display this is 2k + so the resolution is 1440 by 31 20 it is a Super AMOLED panel and it has a maximum bonus of with my measurements here around 800 nits of brightness which is very good making it out in direct sunlight is I would say average it's not exactly the best but it's definitely not the worst I've seen and you can still send a text message make out what you're typing at least and that's the main thing there with that now touch sensitivity very very good with this particular panel I'm using full screen gestures no problems with it at all and we're looking at real-world images you can see that they do look very good no issues were blacks so blacks I'm not seeing you funny green 10 I'm not seeing any and even low brightness blacks either with this panel which is good it has a refresh rate of 90 hits or 60 Hertz you can select it through the settings which I will show you shortly but I just wanted to point out that the gamma is almost spot-on it is about 2.3 here closer towards 2.2 which is good and what the display we do have a few options here so we've got this MMO which I find to be way to over saturate it's just over the top colors punchiness natural mode or true vu view mode here and you can adjust the coolness warmness of the display to what you prefer there so that's all pretty straightforward it now edge detection I find to be good and with this full screen gestures it is running really well iq moded as well as there refresh rates out of the box it's going to be on 60 but I keep it on 90 for this review and same goes with a resolution so it will be on there intelligent resolution which will be switching between 1080p and 2k but I'm gonna force it onto 2k again for the entirety of this particular review here and we do have highway DC dimming so I'm going to keep this on because it stops any flicker when I'm recording with my camera and that low brightness says you should not see any flicker with this screen it is a high quality panel it just tends to be I think out of the box just a little bit over the top with a cause and saturation I wanted to put this in here as well because I know a lot of people gonna go hey Chris I want a comparison in dips between the black track 3 and the black track 3 Pro it's not worth it ok it's not worth me going to that effort all that effort for really minor differences so this one on the black Shack 3 Pro slightly now two speakers the cameras are exactly the same thermals pretty much exactly the same to performance the same better life better on the black track 3 screen ok yeah slightly sharper 2k resolution you get on this one the black eye 3 is it actually worth the extra is not really hard we're gaming triggers yeah okay the highway gaming triggers if you play a lot of for example pub G or Call of Duty yeah it's nice to have but I don't think it's actually worth the extra I would go with this one here the blackjack three so that's what you're looking at is the off-screen display which is the always-on display now this will shift around you can customize it you can change it if you want it will show you notifications too so it shifts around to stop any screen burn but maybe you know if you come back and look at this in three years time it could actually cause a bit especially where the fingerprint reader has been an AMOLED panel now this also does move a few pixels out so it's not always going to be in the exact same position so show you the unlocking speeds I have found them to be very average a little on the slow side compared to other phones that I have reviewed like the X 50 Pro 5g or the X 2 Pro or the highway P 30 Pro they have super fast and screen fingerprint readers this one does lags behind it a little bit now runs joy UI live enjoy the UI 11 is me UI 11 basically from Xiaomi but just tweaked for black shark now because I've got the 12 gigabytes of RAM I've forced also 90 Hertz and i have force 2 k this thing is just very very smooth and fast and my typical mon the animations do they have any frame dips no they don't seem to have any lags that I think the team really are doing a much better job with this phone well the black shark guy is the Jui I think they doing a better job than me away in terms of optimization they've just got it down a little bit now Ram management is a little aggressive now full screen gestures they're working good and I notice that it will kill things off quite quickly what about YouTube that's been sitting there now for 30 minutes no of course not even with 12 gigabytes of RAM it wants to kill it off to save us battery life I think that is just wrong it's just too aggressive there so I'll go back into gallery because I want to run through some things here so when you first get it this being the Chinese one version there's a lot of bloatware on here ok connect have all these Chinese apps Google Play Store so just run the Google installer version 3 google it move the apk file on your phone and go through and get it to install Google Framework Google services and the Play Store and everything else so we do have on first vote to 231 gigabytes free on the 256 gigabyte version and it has a security patch level of yeah last year I don't know why but this is bad November Oh November 2019 okay and that's just to speak of the phone that I am on the latest uh firmware update here as well I can see joy UI yes there's some Chinese in there being the Chinese ROM so camera2 api support level 3 very good that's what we want and I expected this being a Chinese phone so wide vine little cert level 3 okay so standard definition for Netflix Amazon Prime video yeah not great and what about the wireless speed so very good no problem see it's not the fastest I've seen especially when you're only got like one or two bars of signal strength on five gigahertz wireless by the way here I've noticed that the readme K 30 Pro was much quicker that can get about 360 megabits per second in fact the fastest I have ever seen with low signal string speeds and here we have GPS okay so very good typical Qualcomm we cannot get better than three meters with them due to some law restriction if you've got a mediatek chip then you can get actually one meter of accuracy so here we have an 2 2 so it is good very good this is a great score as expected and what about battery life so first they forced the 2k resolution and then 90 Hertz so 8 hours and 2 minutes ouch this is not good this is a lot worse than a blackjack 3 Pro this is about 20% worse or so 30% because of that screen resolution larger screen has more of course pixels to illuminate light up larger area more backlight so it's gonna burn through the battery faster even at 60 Hertz and the just 1080p resolution well install kind of poor isn't it 11 hours and 52 minutes not really the greatest there now a battery charging time so it will go from 2% to 59% in just 21 minutes and in 30 minutes you get 70 percent battery life from 2% that is really quick for a five thousand milliamp hour battery very very good and fully charged you can see us here 55 minutes is the time it takes to fully charge it the black shark 3 will take about 41 or 42 minutes to fully charge onto audio now so they do sound very similar the loudspeakers but to me the black shack 3 Pro is a fraction louder now 3.5 minute output on both of them is excellent and it's exactly the same on the back track 3 Pro here voice quality for calls the same very good no problem so let's he'll listen now to the dual front-facing loudspeakers on this on to gaming but old fishery the game space so that's our exclusive gaming hub this is it right here now you can add games manually a lot of them you will have to do and this you can see is where the games are listed you've got various different settings up the top here now most of these up here game settings as well that you can actually trigger win in the game so that's when you flick the switch at the top to get into this I'll just go back here into critical ops now this game it is very good because it's going to run at 90 frames per second a lot of other games don't is we're gonna be down to the developers if they support the 90 frames per sec in the game so we've got settings in here for just basically not being interrupted so no calls coming through you can change that now the monitor is your FPS monitor which will also give us temperatures as well clear the RAM master controls the interesting one here for the touch controls they can configure with appreciative pressure sensitive touch voice control ones as well a master trigger so that's what I'm using right here the triggers have popped up at the top and assistant overlays you can configure that wherever you want so with this game here critical ops I want it for the trigger so that's a on the left and then for reload is be when touching that and then if you go back so swapping from the corners you've got all these different settings here so this is where you can configure their performance for each game so this will save it per game okay so I got the set to the absolute maximum which is a ludicrous mode to booster performance you've got a display refresh rate controls touch there again audio network pretty straightforward here and using those triggers I'll show you what it is like but you can see just tapping this and hardware click in nice feeling triggers for the reload as well they're really really good so you can move around on the screen shoot at targets just so much easier than having to use the on-screen touch buttons but let's have a look at some gameplay here of critical ops so this map here is just one of the ones up against the bots here so using the triggers very easy oops going for a groin shot here that's not very good but it does make it a lot easier just tapping the triggers and you see reloading just a tap the trigger there so this does work really well now what go into a lot of gameplay do check the black Shack 3 if you want to see some more gameplay but one running at 90 frames per second the whole time supporting a higher refresh rate other games like pub G also really good and those triggers they do add quite a lot but does it make it worth the extra going for this phone just because of the triggers really I don't think it is and the better life as I pointed out it's not as good as the black shark 3 now on to our cameras so I find that the cameras do need I think a lot of optimization firmware updates hopefully when they do release them can improve our camera quality so this is the pro mode that you can actually take a 256 megapixel photo and I don't find it to be really that good you're not gaining that much I mean you can crop a little bit more into the image but the quality seems quite blurred as you can see from the example I'm just showing you now it also does take a long time with the processing here as you can see about 15 seconds and then 64 megapixel Mouse we've got night mode here portrait photo and the ultra-wide is there too that can be selected that's the standard lens and video goes up to 4k 60 frames per second with this particular one now I'll just go quickly back to that pro mode to show you and that we also have settings here for the white balance focus shutter rate and the exposure now the shadow rate goes up to 32 seconds and our ISO up to 3200 there now those samples so we can shoot ultra wide video but it doesn't have any electronic image stabilization none of the video does sadly with this phone on the current firmware the main 64 megapixel sensor can take 4k up to 60 frames per second this sample right here is 30 frames per second I don't find the focus to be bad at all I think it's quite good no problems with it which is great but yeah the lack of electronic image stabilization means this is not really a phone for taking video with its current state you're gonna need to use a gimbal now the audio quality is well the bitrate is a little bit low I hope that black shark won't show me can improve the bitrate and add that electronic image stabilization so yes of course facing camera does not have any electronic image stabilization even though it does have quite a crop to it now the 1080p quality we get here that's maximum resolution you can record with the front-facing camera is very good now show me there's tends to actually be quite good at 1080p videos I mean it does look a lot better than other manufacturers I have been testing out for example like real me now let me talk a little bit about the thermals to with gaming I've noticed that if you're gonna game for a solid hour or so just like the smaller black shark 3 that it will get up to about 39 degrees according to their widget the battery temperatures surface temps on this will be up to around 43 the longer you play the hotter will get and this is normal this is a powerful chipset that has endless and it's passively cooled there's no fan in this particular model here now there is an attachment fan you can get for this you can also get a mechanical keyboard and the gaming pad and all that but it's going to cost you extra and unfortunately we don't have their magnetic charging cable either in the box that is again another extra so if they can optimize those cameras just to improve the performance of them low-light selfies video quality especially lacks any form of stabilization so really the cameras on this one aren't great and overlooked in its current firmware state so look for improvements with firmware updates coming through hopefully from black shark but to me this is the one to go for it's the black Shack 3 not the 3 Pro because the 3 Pro we lose a lot in terms of battery life because of the 2k screen the mechanical pop-up triggers are really cool they're great to use they are very nice ok gaming if you play a lot of pub G you play a lot of Call of Duty you're going to make full use of them and it gives you an advantage over touch because it's just so much quicker and easier to use there but it's just not worth it I don't think and then the bulkier sighs I love my larger phones but at seven point one inches and 260 grams and then 11 millimeters this is just a little too bulky for a daily carry I feel for most people there so thank you so much for watching this review please check out the review of the black shack 3 I go into a little bit more gaming there a little bit more in the gaming settings the the sharp space mode there too as well if you're interested in seeing now and I didn't want to repeat it all in this video to be a bit of a broken record but I hope to see you back in my next review bye for nowI run Chris here so I've got with me the black Shack 3 Pro that I have been using for a while now and it's the larger version to the black Shack 3 that I just reviewed in the channel now this one what is different is it has a 2k screen a larger screen it is 7.1 inches it's still 90 Hertz and we also have a larger battery which is 5000 million hours and hardware mechanical

minutes in my testing more on that later on in this particular in-depth review we're got a TPU case here now this does have cutouts for our triggers and all the buttons and it is all very good quality here it's great to see this included in the case there is a symmetry tool as well and a QuickStart guide and other material but that's all in Chinese oh and we do get this right here some black shark stickers so this is a large phone as expected 7.1 inches now that is probably going to be ideal for people who are coming from maybe the me max series or say the mate 20x that's the larger phones of course there but it is really really quite heavy 260 grams versus of 223 we have with the smaller black shark 3 but this is a six point seven inch screen of course versus that seven point one so the

time with the processing here as you can see about 15 seconds and then 64 megapixel Mouse we've got night mode here portrait photo and the ultra-wide is there too that can be selected that's the standard lens and video goes up to 4k 60 frames per second with this particular one now I'll just go quickly back to that pro mode to show you and that we also have settings here for the white balance focus shutter rate and the exposure now the shadow rate goes up to 32 seconds and our ISO up to 3200 there now those samples so we can shoot ultra wide video but it doesn't have any electronic image stabilization none of the video does sadly with this phone on the current firmware the main 64 megapixel sensor can take 4k up to 60 frames per second this sample right here is 30 frames per second I don't find the focus to be bad at all I think it's quite good no problems with it which is great but yeah the lack of electronic image stabilization means this is not really a phone for taking video with its current state you're gonna need to use a gimbal now the audio quality is well the bitrate is a little bit low I hope that black shark won't show me can improve the bitrate and add that electronic image stabilization so yes of course facing camera does not have any electronic image stabilization even though it does have quite a crop to it now the 1080p quality we get here that's maximum resolution you can record with the front-facing camera is very good now show me there's tends to actually be quite good at 1080p videos I mean it does look a lot better than other manufacturers I have been testing out for example like real me now let me talk a little bit about the thermals to with gaming I've noticed that if you're gonna game for a solid hour or so just like the smaller black shark 3 that it will get up to about 39 degrees according to their widget the battery temperatures surface temps on this will be up to around 43 the longer you play the hotter will get and this is normal this is a powerful chipset that has endless and it's passively cooled there's no fan in this particular model here now there is an attachment fan you can get for this you can also get a mechanical keyboard and the gaming pad and all that but it's going to cost you extra and unfortunately we don't have their magnetic charging cable either in the box that is again another extra so if they can optimize those cameras just to improve the performance of them low-light selfies video quality especially lacks any form of stabilization so really the cameras on this one aren't great and overlooked in its current firmware state so look for improvements with firmware updates coming through hopefully from black shark but to me this is the one to go for it's the black Shack 3 not the 3 Pro because the 3 Pro we lose a lot in terms of battery life because of the 2k screen the mechanical pop-up triggers are really cool they're great to use they are very nice ok gaming if you play a lot of pub G you play a lot of Call of Duty you're going to make full use of them and it gives you an advantage over touch because it's just so much quicker and easier to use there but it's just not worth it I don't think and then the bulkier sighs I love my larger phones but at seven point one inches and 260 grams and then 11 millimeters this is just a little too bulky for a daily carry I feel for most people there so thank you so much for watching this review please check out the review of the black shack 3 I go into a little bit more gaming there a little bit more in the gaming settings the the sharp space mode there too as well if you're interested in seeing now and I didn't want to repeat it all in this video to be a bit of a broken record but I hope to see you back in my next review bye for now\n"
