And since we’re talking about that display, the front is made by a large 6.67″ AMOLED screen with a resolution of Full HD+ (1080 x 2400 pixels), support for a 120 Hz refresh rate, 270 Hz touch sampling rate, HDR 10+, Trueview, and DC Dimming.

No need to explain for long that this is a top-tier flagship display, made for gamers. On top of that, there’s an ultra-fast response of just 17 ms together with 4 pressure sensors, and a smartphone for all kinds of gaming titles with maximum enjoyment is here.

The fastest processor for Androids

To make the gaming experience as good as possible, the manufacturer went with certainty and built into the Black Shark 3S the very best that today’s tech industry has to offer. No one else chose the role of the processor but the most powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 865+.

It’s backed by 12 GB RAM LPDDR5, and compared to classic LPDDR4 modules, performance has been boosted by as much as 50%. The storage type UFS 3.1 will be available in sizes 128 / 256 / 512 GB. So there will undoubtedly be plenty of space for games.

 

However, the storage doesn’t have to be used only for games. The main 64 MPx sensor with a light sensitivity of f/1.8, a wide-angle 13 MPx lens, and a trio closed off by a 5 MPx sensor will take care of beautiful and sharp photos. The front selfie camera offers a resolution of 20 MPx.

Fast charging and a big battery

Black Shrak 3S is powered by a 4720 mAh battery that, with good optimization, delivers solid battery life. There’s also fast 65 W charging via USB Type-C, or 18 W wireless charging.

The rest of the equipment includes the latest Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.0, 5G network support, aptX codec, GPS, A-GPS, Galielo, GLONASS, Dual SIM, and an in-display fingerprint reader. The dimensions of the new model are 168 x 77 x 10 mm and the weight is 222 grams.
