Black Shark is industry-recognized for its continuous focus and R&D efforts on phone gaming. The phone maker keeps reaching for new records with the constant introduction of better and improved features. With the latest Black Shark 5 Pro, gamers will be getting a dual-zone pressure-sensitive screen that offers you console-level touch gaming experiences. Along with a super responsive screen, Black Shark then adds on an upgraded Dual VC Liquid Cooling system by placing two large VC plates (5320mm²) on both sides of the phone, incorporating a Sandwich Cooling Structure. Direct-attached copper alloys 100% cover the core components, making heat dissipation more efficient compared to the traditional thermal gel, keeping Black Shark calm and cool in every game. Add in the graphite flake, graphene, and phase change material, and the frame rate during gaming can be extremely high and stable. This revolutionary design increases the liquid coolant flow rate by 30% and VC heat dissipation by 50%. An advanced cooling system and a touch sampling rate of up to 720Hz (which gives you the industry’s lowest touch delay of just 8.3ms) makes for the perfect gaming experience. Except for the connectivity part… Black Shark has considered every aspect of phone gaming, and with Black Shark 5 Pro, it is offering you the fastest data speeds with SA/NSA dual-mode 5G and WiFi 6E. Whether you are at home or on the go, the “X” antenna design and intelligent network switching ensure you’ll always get the fastest and most stable possible speeds. Staying true to being the leading gaming phone maker in the industry, Black Shark is also introducing physical buttons with its innovative magnet-lift technology that results in ultra-responsive shoulder triggers (160g trigger pressure). Experience magic with a gentle press for precise, customizable control in competitive games. The triggers disappear beautifully into the edge of the Black Shark 5 Pro, offering gamers quite a seamless experience with a stunning design. No gaming experience is complete without an amazing sound quality. Whether it’s everyday entertainment or weekly gaming competitions, Black Shark 5 Pro will take you right to the top of the crystal clear sound quality thanks to its dual-symmetrical linear stereo speakers paired with high-power amplifiers and an oversized sound cavity, offering you best-in-class sound quality. Add in three microphones with noise cancellation, and you don’t just have the powerhouse for music playback, but you also have access to an impeccable recording experience right through your smartphone. If that wasn’t enough, the company also partnered with DTS and Cirrus Logic Technology to further fine-tune the sound effects. All those efforts got the Black Shark 5 Pro the no. 1 spot in the DXOMARK smartphone rankings for audio. No more lags, no more delays of any kind!
