Xiaomi Black Shark 5 and Black Shark 5 Pro

Xiaomi Black Shark 5 and Black Shark 5 Pro are gaming phones 

The latest information concerns their specifications, which are published on the website of the Chinese regulatory agency TENAA. The Black Shark 5 (model number PAR-A0) is equipped with a 6.7-inch Full HD + AMOLED screen with a refresh rate of 144 Hz and a fingerprint reader on the screen.

When it comes to the processor, a 3.2 GHz CPU is listed, which is probably the Snapdragon 870 processor, paired with 8/12 GB of RAM and 128/256 GB of ROM. The main camera is 64 MP, the front (selfie) camera is 13 MP. The battery capacity is 4,650 mAh with support for fast charging of 120 W.

The dimensions of the phone are 163.83 × 76.25 × 10.37 mm and the phone weighs 223 grams. Black Shark 5 will likely be available in Dark Universe Black, Dawn White, White, and Exploration Gray colors.

The Black Shark 5 Pro (model number KTUS-A0) will also be equipped with a 6.7-inch AMOLED Full HD + screen with a refresh rate of 144 Hz and a fingerprint reader on the screen. But the difference should be seen in the presence of a 3.0 GHz CPU, considered to be the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor, paired with supposedly 8/12/16 GB of RAM and 256/512 GB of ROM. Also, the 108 MP main camera instead of 64 MP and the front camera remains 13 MP. The battery capacity is also 4650 mAh with support for fast charging of 120 W. The dimensions of the Black Shark 5 Pro are very similar to the dimensions of the Black Shark 5 phone (163.86 x 76.53 x 9.8 mm and weighs 226 grams).

Another thing to discover is the price, the exact look, and the release date. The Xiaomi Black Shark 5 series is expected to unveil in March, especially considering the Black Shark 4 series was unveiled in March last year.

Xiaomi has introduced the Redmi K50 Gaming, the first phone in the long-awaited K50 series, which will ultimately consist of four smartphones. Two will be powered by MediaTek Dimensity 7000 and 9000, and the other two by Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 and Snapdragon 8 Gen 1.

And it is Redmi K50 Gaming that uses the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset, but let's start with the screen. The Redmi K50 Gaming is equipped with a 6.67-inch AMOLED FHD + display with a refresh rate of 120 Hz and a touch sampling rate of 480 Hz.

At the back is a triple camera setup consisting of a 64 MP main camera sensor (Sony IMX686), an 8 MP ultra-wide sensor, and a 2 MP telemacro sensor. At the front, at the top of the screen, there is a hole where a 20 MP selfie camera (Sony IMX596) is located. The battery has a capacity of 4700 mAh with support for fast charging of 120 W, and according to Xiaomi, the phone will be fully charged in just 17 minutes.

The phone runs MIUI 13 based on Android 12.

The phone also boasts support for Wi-Fi 6E and NFC, and there is also a Xiaomi CyberEngine x-axis haptic engine and stereo JBL speakers, and as with the Redmi K40 Gaming phone two gaming triggers. The frame of the phone is made of metal, while the back is made of glass.

Xiaomi Redmi K50 Gaming will be available in blue, silver, and black, and interesting and limited Mercedes AMG F1 edition, which was created in collaboration with Xiaomi and Mercedes AMG Petronas Formula One team and which features badges and colors of this racing team, but which is available in only 10,000 copies.
