Xiaomi Black Shark 4S Review, Pros and Cons
Source: OI Spice Tech News English
The Xiaomi Black Shark 4S smartphone is undoubtedly a low-cost gaming smartphone. It has everything a player needs, whether it’s a pop-up trigger or advanced level clocking speed. But there are some points where the phone is lacking. The first would be the camera section and the second would be the battery life. Although, everything looks decent in the end with the heavy gaming customization. By analysis, if you’re looking for a gaming device, the Black Shark 4S is worth recommending. But these valuable features aren’t enough for you, in that case, you can also check out the Black Shark 4S Pro or the Asus ROG 5S Pro in the meantime.

Qualcomm Adreno 650: Graphics chip for smartphones and tablets that is integrated within the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 SoC. Qualcomm claims that it is 25% faster than the Adreno 640 in the Snapdragon 855 SoC and offers 50% more compute units (ALUs). For Android it should be one of the fastest graphics cards in 2020.

Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

It is a small display format for smartphones. You shouldn't be severely defective in vision, and you won't see much detail on the screen and only have a small resolution available. For that, the device should be small and handy, easy to transport.
