Lacks contrast. Although well-equipped, the entry-level smartphone A8 Max from Blackview sells for only 90 Euro (~$99) - and that even includes shipping. The low-budget smartphone from the Chinese manufacturer scores with a good price-to-value ratio, but is held back by the rather unimpressive contrast ratio of its IPS HD panel.

Petite. Classy. Slow. Timeless and clean design is one of Chinese manufacturer Blackview's trademarks. Next to Blackview's outdoor smartphones, the petite A9 Pro seems almost out of place. The smartphone's hardware cannot keep up with Blackview's other offerings. Still, the A9 had a few tricks up its sleeves.

Blackview A20
The Blackview A20 is one of the first Android Go phones that feature a 5.5-inch display afford to provide a vivid and different visual experience. Android Go is Google’s stripped down version of Android designed to run on lower-end hardware. It’s optimized to ideally run on about 1 GB of RAM, but it can go lower or higher. It was developed for the next generation of entry-level devices so that those in developing nations can still purchase affordable smartphones that do everything a user may need. With 1 GB of RAM and powered by an MT6580M chip clocked at 1,3 GHz, it’s not the most powerful device. Not only that, but it comes with a 480×960 display at an 18:9 aspect ratio and 8 GB of onboard storage. User can’t expect to do a huge amount on this phone, but it definitely can do a whole lot more than the specifications suggest thanks to the extremely optimized software on board. As for design, it’s fairly clunky, coming in at about 1.5 cm thick. The back of the device is a gunmetal-grey plastic and is textured for grip. The included speaker grille is also on the back of the device, a small square on the bottom left. What’s also different is that both the charging port and headphone jack are at the top. Another design quirk involves the dual camera setup, which is set out in a fairly generic configuration. The volume rocker and power button are also both on the right side of the device which is comfortable to use. Blackview includes both a case and a screen protector with each device. A dual camera set up is featured on the back of the phone. It has a 2.0 MP front camera and 5.0 MP + 0.3 MP dual rear cameras. It doesn’t offer a huge amount by way of quality. However, it’s absolutely fine for basic shots that can capture simple moments with family and friends. One of the highlights of this device is the software. The Blackview A20 is powered by completely stock Android Go. Android Go is optimized software by Google with a number of changes employed in order to facilitate devices with lower RAM such as this. There are a limited number of customization options available, and it comes with the Android Go stock launcher pre-installed. Autonomy is a category where a user would expect the device to shine, and to its merit, it does. With a low powered processor, low-resolution screen, and 3000 mAh battery, the Blackview A20 achieves a long battery life that user wouldn’t normally ever see. Obviously, it comes at the cost of performance. As for charging times, it’s extremely slow. The charging port is 1A, so a user can expect to see charge times from 0 % to 100 % of about 2 hours and a half. Hands-on article by Jagadisa RajarathnamSpecifications

The Blackview A20 is a smartphone for an extremely small budget. With Android Go and a dual-camera set-up, it should offer at least a modicum of comfort. You can learn whether it is the case in our review.

Blackview A60
Blackview has been showcasing an increasing level of popularity among smartphone users due to its product strength and durability. Being the manufacturer of rugged phones, Blackview’s A series is seriously breaking the market on a whole new level. The A series is known for its exceptional performance level at a cost that would not hurt the wallet, and the Blackview A60 is promising the same as its variants. The Blackview A30 might be showcasing a lower cost at the moment, but the A60 definitely has extra added benefits for its higher range on the overall price scale. In comparison to the earlier released A30 variant, the A60 has entered the market with far more withstanding battery power using a 4080mAh battery. This is approximately 1.63 times more than the standard 2500mAh battery incorporated within the A30. The larger battery power will reduce the need for recharging often, which in a way increases the productive time of phone usage. However, it is definitely worth mentioning that the A30 provides a removable battery as compared to an irremovable type in the A60.
Discussions on smartphones could be literally considered invaluable when they revolve around resolution, because higher resolution would result in a much more detailed image and a more pleasant viewing experience for the users. Looking at it from that perspective, the Blackview A60 does offer a higher level of resolution (600 x 1280px) than the much lower (540 x 1132px) resolution of the A30 variant. As far as the storage is concerned, the A60 comes with an expandable memory of 64 GB, which doubles the 32 GB offered by the A30. For camera lovers, the A60 is definitely something to pay attention to due to its 13MP primary camera. It would be an entirely different level of experience to view an image through that lens for the Blackview-ardent fans. The A60 also comes with a much bigger screen size of 6.1 inches, which caters for a rather immersive and expensive user experience. The A30 was equipped with the much smaller screen size of 5.5 inches, thus the A60 has definitely been improved in that aspect. The Blackview A60’s screen is also protected with Corning Gorilla Glass 3.
The A60 is also 3G and 4G capable and also has a built-in GPS receiver. The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite-based navigation system that allows the determination of the exact geographical location on Earth for the user. This built-in system is definitely an added advantage for users at any time. Viewing the overall market, it is worth mentioning that the Blackview A60 is offered in three different colors, which includes Blue, Black and Green. The colors were designed in such a way to give the users a new sleek and fancy look overall, but the missing Gold color, which was showcased with the A30 variant, might be a disappointment to some Blackview fans.

The Blackview A60 doesn't even cost 70 euros and is still a relatively large smartphone with a waterdrop notch and a decent battery capacity. But a decisive equipment feature has fallen victim to the price...
Blackview A80 Pro
While it is undeniable that the Blackview A80 Pro has won the hearts of millions with its very affordable price, is that enough to cater for a larger market? At the end of the day, the price does not determine the true capability of the smartphone. Of course, it is true that Blackview has its own signature mark when it comes to manufacturing rugged phones, and by introducing the A series, it was clear that the company intended to produce great phones in an affordable price range. So, the A80 Pro is definitely meeting the signature need of its series by having a reasonably cheap price.
This phone comes with a 6.49-inch display with Full-HD+ for an absolute viewing pleasure. It also incorporates IPS technology, one of the leading LCD technologies in the world. Any image or video viewed on such a screen is definitely worth it for its greater details and image sharpness as well as a more immersive experience. Blackview has definitely worked hard to really reduce the edges and the overall size of the phone with this particular A-series variant.
Even though the display is attention-worthy, the true attraction of the A80 Pro lies on the back of the phone. The fingerprint reader at the back minimizes the time needed to access the phone, as it recognizes and reacts to the reading in such an accurate manner that users will definitely fall in love with this feature. Apart from that, the Quad Camera System situated next to the reader also needs to be noted for its function. It incorporates four cameras that work together in detecting the type of scene involved in image or video capturing and prepares to deliver the result with brighter colors and more details. The main sensor in this system is a 13-megapixel Sony IMX258. The A80 Pro also includes a drop-type notch on the front with an 8-megapixel Sony IMX239 sensor which allows users to activate facial unlocking and also to create blurred portraits.
Another surprise with this model is the inclusion of a Type-C USB port, which is quite rare in smartphones in this price range. Well, the A80 Pro has just proven otherwise by including the port and still keeping an affordable price. As far as the battery is concerned, the A80 Pro comes with a large 4,680-mAh battery that is definitely long-lasting after a full charge and reduces the need for frequent recharging. This not only reduces the time wasted on recharging but also increases overall productivity. Despite the cheap price, the Blackview A80 Pro does not disappoint users in terms of the choices available. This model comes in four different colors, namely black, red, blue and green for users to choose from based on their personal taste and interest.

The Blackview A80 Pro wants to convince us with a huge battery, numerous LTE bands and a quad-cam on the back. Because the whole thing should only cost 125 euros, we are suspicious, but maybe the smartphone will surprise us positively.

So, it’s a good smartphone, and this is due to the experience that it will give you, given that it is a low-cost smartphone and the price does not exceed $80 with a stylish design and a fingerprint scanner, excellent battery life for most people, and a competitive price tag. And all this does not mean that it is flawless because the cameras are mediocre, with slow performance making it only to perform basic tasks. but for an ultra-budget device, all these issues are forgivable. For this price, the Blackview A52 is a good choice and will not disappoint you.

The Blackview A53 Pro looks like a typical entry-level smartphone. Yes, it has its shortcomings – it won’t catch heavy toys, it needs a better camera, and a faster charger. But, remember, we are talking about a device with a price tag of around $100. If we look at the nearest competitors in a similar 4/64GB modification (Redmi 10A, Tecno Spark 8C or realme C30s), we have a bit more bonuses. For example, the same Spark 8C and realme C30s have a stripped-down Android Go Edition, because the chipset is weaker, while the A53 has a full-fledged OS. So for its price, the A53 Pro is a pretty competitive ultra-budget device. Who is it suitable for? For example, schoolchildren and older users. And for all those who don’t need a super-performing smartphone with lots of features, just want to stay in touch, stay informed about what’s happening in the world, communicate via social networks and messengers and entertain themselves with videos or simple games.

The Blackview A53 Pro smartphone is a budget-friendly phone that doesn’t offer any exceptional features to users. Even after going through each of the sections of this phone, you won’t find anything impressive in the first place. It got an average screen, a normal software unit, a casual gaming experience, above-average camera results, and decent battery life. All of those factors do increase this phone’s value. But, the device doesn’t provide additional support when it comes to providing crips image quality, high refresh rate, 5G connectivity, and so on. The Blackview A53 Pro is not a perfect phone, and it got an equal number of flaws. But at the end of the day, if you are looking for a phone for casual instant messaging and calling, then you should consider this phone. Yet, you can also check out the Samsung Galaxy F13 smartphone as an alternative option for the overall built and faster software update.

The Blackview A53 is pretty much a basic phone that doesn’t have any special that stands out from the rest of the entry-level smartphones. You are getting an average display, mediocre performance, low storage, less RAM, etc. But at the same time, the phone also got a decent plus point with a long-lasting battery and LTE internet connection. Overall, the phone might not be the best pick if you want to do everything a little bit from here and there. But if you are looking for a phone generally for calling and normal internet usage, you can consider this phone. Yet, if we look at the alternative, even the Tecno Spark 10 5G comes out as a better deal since it cost the Same and offers the same deal as this phone. Eventually, decide according to your requirements.

5.00:
It is a very small display format for smartphones. You should by no means be mis-sighted and you will generally see very little on the screen and only have a small resolution available. In return, the device should be very small and handy.

70.46%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
