After having launched Black Shark in April, Xiaomi yesterday launched the successor to its gaming smartphone, called Black Shark Helo. Though the phone features mostly minor upgrades over the Black Shark, the most notable of the lot is the new display. Xiaomi replaces the LCD panel on the Black Shark with a new 6-inch HDR-ready AMOLED display with a resolution of 2,160 x 1080 pixels. This, in theory, should help you get deeper blacks and also better battery life through extended gaming sessions. The handset is also powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor, coupled with an Adreno 630 GPU. There's also a beefy 4,000mAh battery, front facing speakers and a hardware key to activate performance mode. Xiaomi also appears to have taken a page out of Asus’s book by adding a customisable LED light strip to the side of the phone. That's not all. Xiaomi also introduces Gamer Studio, a dedicated app where users can tweak CPU settings, notifications, sounds, and more. There is also Shark Time, an AI-based feature that automatically records highlights while you are playing games and allows you to share them.

Moving to optics, the Black Shark Helo has dual rear cameras, a 12 MP primary sensor and a 20 MP secondary sensor. Xiaomi says that the cameras can recognise up to 206 different scenes and take bokeh images. The front camera is a 20 MP sensor that can also take portrait mode selfies. Sitting below the rear cameras is a fingerprint scanner. Connectivity options include 4G LTE, WiFi 802.11a/b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS, AGPS, Glonass, aptX and aptX HD support. Sensors onboard are ambient light sensor, geomagnetic sensor, gravity sensor, gyroscope, and proximity sensor. The Black Shark Helo also comes in three RAM variants now with a starting price of CNY 3,199 (approximately Rs 34,100) for the base variant with 6 GB RAM and 128 GB internal storage. There's also a variant with 8 GB RAM and 256 GB storage (priced at CNY 3,499) but that isn't the best on offer here. The top-of-the-line variant of the Black Shark Helo features a whopping 10 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage and is priced at CNY 4,199 (approximately Rs 44,500). The phone goes on sale in China on 30 October, while pre-orders are already being entertained by Xiaomi on its China website. You Might Also Like: Motherbox, Recharge Smartphone Battery From Afar.
