80% Black Shark 5 Pro review: sink or swim?
Source: T3 EN→zh-CN
Undercutting the priciest gaming phone competition, the Black Shark 5 Pro marries high-end features like a 144Hz screen and Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 power with physical shoulder buttons and gaming phone styling. Adding a respectable camera to the mix, the phone's a great shout for gamers who don't mind a busy interface and a bit of heat when tearing through 3D titles and 5G downloads.

This Gaming Phone gets HOT... in more ways than one.
Source: JerryRigEverything
Gaming phones are some of my favorite devices. But I feel like this Black Shark 5 Pro is a gaming phone in stealth mode. Without RGB's to announce your gaming presence - are you really even a gamer? Today we find out if the magnetic pop up buttons on the black shark 5 pro effect its structural integrity. We'll also test out the 120w fast charger to see if it can really charge the phone in 15 minutes.

70% Black Shark 5 Pro review: better, faster, stronger, at a cost
Source: Android Central EN→zh-CN
The Black Shark 5 Pro brings just enough newness to its older iteration. The fresh design looks and feels fantastic, it no longer overheats as much, and you get buttery smooth performance. The device has a stunning 144hz OLED panel and magnetic triggers that can be assigned various functions, even outside of gaming. Sadly, the high price and lack of some features hold this gaming phone back.

Black Shark 5 Pro review: Ahead of the game
Source: Pocket Lint EN→zh-CN
The Black Shark 5 Pro offers a top-tier gaming experience, but it's easy to live with on daily basis, too. This is something that can't be said for a lot of gaming-focused devices, and we think it's pretty important if you're looking for a primary communications device. With the performance on offer here, as well as the novel features like the pop-up triggers, it's easily one of our top picks for gamers on the go.

Black Shark 5 Pro Review: Pushing the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 to its hot limits
Source: XDA Developers EN→zh-CN
The Black Shark 5 Pro offers a lot of good, but there are a lot of reasons to look elsewhere, too. The kernel source and update situation is particularly alarming, as companies are obligated under the GPL to release timely kernel sources. Some companies, such as OnePlus, have published kernel sources late but still typically always get to them at some point. Black Shark, however, just hasn’t released any kernel sources from the Black Shark 2 or newer. Even aside from that, the phone itself heats up incredibly when gaming, to the point that I worry it can cause harm and injury. Between that, the lack of a headphone jack, and the battery life concerns, there’s just not a lot that Black Shark gets right for a gaming phone. The shoulder triggers are cool and work well, but that’s the only genuinely unique feature about this phone that you can’t really get anything like anywhere else. As a result, if what you want is a gaming phone, it’s probably worth waiting to see what’s around the corner — particularly anything that may be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1.

Review – Black Shark 5 Pro: Difficult choice to make
Source: NLT EN→zh-CN
However, the problem with futureproofing is that no one knows how much you are actually “futureproofing” since no one can predict the future. Maybe that hypothetical hot new game also chokes the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. Who knows. Either way, I really can’t justify spending so much on getting the Black Shark 5 Pro. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still a fantastic gaming phone – but it’s just too similar to the Black Shark 5.

78% Black Shark 5 Pro review: A level up
Source: Zdnet.com EN→zh-CN
The Black Shark 5 Pro is undeniably the best from the phone maker, and worthy of a spot on our best gaming phones list. The retractable shoulder triggers are essential to mobile gamers and there's no skimping on internal hardware either. Three months ago, I titled the Black Shark 4 Pro a "Gaming flagship killer". But with the 5 Pro's step-up in specs and pricing, Black Shark has become the one thing that it once sought to kill. That's not a bad thing per se; you now have a top-of-the-line smartphone that's just as capable for gamers as it is for power users. In sacrifice, Black Shark no longer has the value appeal that it once did. Would I still recommend the 5 Pro? Only if you want the best of the best.

80% Black Shark 5 Pro Review: Excellent Gaming Hardware With Glaring Flaws
Source: Android Headlines EN→zh-CN
The Black Shark 5 Pro has great hardware design language, stellar audio, pop-up shoulder triggers, and 120W HyperCharge support. I like the clean software with zero bloatware on the Black Shark 5 Pro as well. Primary camera delivers great pictures day and night which is good to see in a gaming smartphone. But there are some things that the POCO F4 GT and RedMagic 7 series do better. For example, the display itself doesn’t get as bright as advertised, there’s no Gorilla Glass protection and 144Hz refresh rate is served for Shark Space only. Thermal management on the Black Shark 5 Pro is quite poor though. And there is no official IP rating available. It seems that the Black Shark 5 Pro doesn’t fully live up to the hype despite having great specs, loud and crisp audio, and a great primary camera. For the suggested retail price, I would suggest you look at the POCO F4 GT or the RedMagic 7 series before deciding to get the Black Shark 5 Pro.

The Black Shark 5 Pro is an iterative rather than a major upgrade over the Black Shark 4 Pro, and it's not exactly a straightforward upgrade either. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 is now on board and the engineering team has tried to squeeze the most out of it, all at the cost of poor in-hand comfort due to the scorching hot body. The two giant vapor chambers keep the powerful chipset cool by dumping all that heat straight to the user's palms in a frankly uncomfortable way. All things considered, it shows that Black Shark engineers are trying hard. The Black Shark 5 Pro manages to incrementally improve over its predecessor in pretty much every way while also maintaining a reasonable price tag. That being said, we can't help but feel that all of the engineering efforts were invested in sort of auxiliary aspects of the phone without really doing anything to push it above and beyond and make it stand out. Bottom line - the Black Shark 5 Pro is a solid and dependable phone that manages to be competitive among the gaming phone crowd.

The Black Shark 5 Pro is a great gaming-focused smartphone that offers the gamer ‘look’ without being too in your face. Expect flagship-level performance, ultra-fast 120W charging and an improved camera setup, though JoyUI isn’t the most intuitive software around.

For gaming, the Xiaomi Black Shark 5 Pro is a champ. It has a top-end processor, useful gaming mode and retractable triggers that will deliver a huge edge in competitive games. However, its rough edges emerge when you try to use it as an everyday mobile. Battery life is disappointing, it overheats frequently, and the cameras are nothing to write home about either.

All told, this is a good gaming phone with plenty of useful features that puts other gaming phone makers on notice.

Xiaomi Black Shark 5 Pro Smartphone Review
Source: OI Spice Tech News EN→zh-CN
The Xiaomi Black Shark 5 Pro smartphone is a great phone if you are looking for something exciting in the gaming segment. Yet on the same note, it doesn’t have anything that stands out from the rest of the competition, apart from the SSD support. Despite this, the screen size is small, it doesn’t have a massive battery, and a few more other things. On the other hand, you can also check out the recent Asus ROG Phone 5s Pro, which offers similar specs but offers better performance. If we have to recommend the Black Shark 5 Pro, we only pick it for the seamlessly smooth gameplay experience. However, the final decision is in your hand as it’s your hard-earned money.

Black Shark 5 Pro Gaming Review: Ultra Gaming For Competitive Players
Source: Igeekphone EN→zh-CN
The positioning of the Black Shark has always been the flagship gaming phone, and it was relatively conservative in taking pictures before. This time, the Black Shark 5 Pro introduced a 108M camera for the first time, as well as 13MP wide-angle and 5MP telephoto macro lenses, plus a new generation of self-developed polar night algorithms. According to the actual photos, the camera level of the Black Shark 5 Pro has reached the level of a 3,000 yuan mobile phone. Of course, as a gaming phone, gaming can be said to be the job of Black Shark 5 Pro. The combination of the shoulder keys and the “Black Shark Game Space” greatly expands the gameplay of the game, and can also kill enemies more effectively in many competitive games. Coupled with the top performance release of the new Snapdragon 8 processor and the silky experience provided by the 144Hz high-brush screen, who else is the current gaming phone apart from the Black Shark 5 Pro?
