Black Shark 3 will be Malaysia’s first gaming phone of 2020

We’re finally hearing something from Black Shark Malaysia regarding one of the most anticipated smartphones of 2020 – they’ve announced that the Black Shark 3, and possibly Black Shark 3 Pro is, at last, arriving to the country this April 30. Both phones will sport a 90Hz display panel which is a bummer – even if not for gaming, a 120Hz screen would’ve been great for general scrolling. The regular Black Shark 3 rocks a 6.67-inch FHD+ display panel, while the larger Black Shark 3 Pro comes with a 7.1-inch QHD+ OLED screen. Both displays come equipped with a 270Hz touch sampling rate for a more responsive usage experience.

This is the sort of configuration we’re seeing on regular flagships in 2020, so this is the least a gaming phone should pack.

This is especially useful when playing FPS titles and you get a tactile feedback when shooting, which allows for better control. When not in use, the triggers descend into the frame of the phone, flush with the sides.

The latter supports up to 65W of fast charging, which the company claims can power the phone in just 38 minutes. Besides the regular USB C charging port, there’s another magnetic charger at the back that’s supposed to get the wires out of the way when you game. Using this alternate port gets you a decent 18W charging speed.

On the front is a 20MP selfie lens too.

In China, the phones a priced at 3,499 Yuan (RM2,104) for the Black Shark 3; the Black Shark 3 Pro starts at 4,699 Yuan (RM2,826). As its Malaysian launch draws nearer, we won’t have to wait long now to find out how much they’ll cost here.
