Earlier this year (specifically last April), XIAOMI announced the first gaming smartphone - under the name Xiaomi Black Shark. Now, six months after China's first gaming device, Xiaomi announced Black Shark Helo as a sequel to its predecessor. As the symbolic name of Shark 2, the device upgrades minor upgrades in aesthetic aspects, interior specifications, and other features.
Compared to its predecessor, the Black Shark Helo comes with a plethora of interesting features and improvements, especially on the design side. On the inside, the device also has amazing power, with 10 gigabytes of RAM, making Xiaomi's premier gaming device the first smartphone to boost up to 10 gigabytes of RAM. There are also two versions of the phone of 6GB and 8 GB respectively. With storage, the XIAOMI Black Shark Helo offers storage options of 128 GB and 256 GB.
XIAomi Black Shark Helo comes with one processor from the same processor, Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 SoC and Adreno 630 GPU as its predecessor. The CPU comes with the same number of Octa, the maximum speed (2.8 GHz), and the cooling system. The only difference seems to be the introduction of a new 10 GB random memory model. If you do not know, Xiaomi says that the coolers in the phone can lead to a temperature drop of 8 degrees Celsius, which ultimately improves performance during play.

The body of Black Shark 2 has been modified to make it aesthetically easy to classify as a gaming device. There is a new "S" glowing logo on the back side, along with the same dual camera (12MP, f / 1.8; 20MP, f / 1.8) like the first Black Shark. The glowing back logo and side bars use RGB LED lighted and can be customized.
However, the biggest modification to this device is the offer. Xiaomi switches the LCD panel used in the first generation of Black Shark for a larger 6.01-inch AMOLED screen with FHD + (1080 x 2160 pixels) resolution and 60Hz refresh rate. In the display, there are stereo front speakers, a 20 megapixel camera and f / 2.2. Everything about the Black Shark Helo looks perfect, but there's no 3.5 mm headphone jack that some players (or maybe many) may not like because you'll need USB-C accessories to connect with your gaming headsets.
