Xiaomi will soon debut its latest Black Shark 4 series on Friday, Mar. 26. But, the interested consumers outside China would not be able to purchase the new Black Shark 4 series as of the moment.
According to TechRadar, Xiaomi hasn't given an actual date when the phone will be released for global purchase. However, the giant manufacturer confirmed that there will be a global launch very soon.
Black Shark 4s Features
To compete with the rest of the gaming phones out there, the Black Shark needs to have unique features with its specs to outshine the other phone. Not only does the phone deliver but with much firepower with it.
Both of these phones have a 720Hz Touch sampling rate allowing them to register touches at an 8.3ms touch delay. The company claims this is the industry's best delay time, but most casual users won't notice the difference. Although this might be the case, this feature might help gamers that play shooter games on their phones. For other casual gamers, even they won't be able to notice the difference either.
According to TheVerge, the phone's screen is pressure-sensitive, just like in the previous black sharks with some improvements to it.
The company has also kept the shoulder buttons on the phone with some new improvements to them. The Black Shark 4 now has something Xiaomi calls "Magnetic Lift Power" that gives the buttons a more tactile feel. The company has also said it improves the look of the phone as well.
A user from Twitter has shown the phones read and write speeds the phones will have. Viewing these speeds, they are shown to be possibly the fastest of any phone out there currently.
These speeds reach up to 3Gb in reading and 1Gb in writing, making these great for taking high-resolution videos and gaming.
