This time we got the Black Shark 4S and Black Shark 4S Gundam Limited Edition phones. You want to see the limited edition of Gundam that is full of faith. Let’s focus on this phone today.
Different from the touch buttons of traditional gaming phones, the Black Shark 4 series at the beginning of the year has been equipped with magnetic powerlifting physical buttons as standard. This time, the Black Shark 4S has continued this design well.
And different from traditional gaming phones, the side buttons of the Black Shark 4S Gundam Limited Edition are physical buttons that can be raised and have essential travel. In the contracted state, the two side buttons, one red and one blue, are cleverly hidden on the frame, matched with the high-definition color scheme. They can easily be used as decorations without looking carefully.
After turning on the side button switch, the two side buttons will pop up for the first time. The height and the feedback strength of the buttons will allow users to have more button choices during the game. It is estimated that friends who like to play FPS mobile games will see this. The eyes of the two buttons have started to glow green.
As a gaming phone, both Black Shark 4S Gundam Limited Edition and Black Shark 4S are equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 processor platform. This is for the frame rate stability of the game. After all, too high a frequency will bring To get more heat, when the frame rate is sufficient, it is an intelligent choice to consider the stability.
In addition, the battery life of 4500mAh is powerful, and there is also a 120W ultra-fast flash charge, and it will be a big surprise if you charge it for 10 minutes.
The following are the detailed parameters of the Black Shark 4S Gundam Limited Edition:

Features
As a gaming phone, the most significant difference between the Black Shark 4S Gundam Limited Edition and ordinary phones is that it has a built-in game lobby function designed for gamers.
In our experience, we found that this feature is not a simple app store.
The user can enter the game directly through the game lobby, and between entering the game, you can choose which state the phone will run the game in when the game is run. The settings include the processor performance release level, screen refresh rate, screen color, touch sensitivity, etc.
If you want, you can even use the voice changer to different incarnate identities such as Yujie, Loli, and Uncle.
In the creative workshop interface, you can choose to use the screen projection. Currently, the projection screen supports Windows 7 and above, which is quite friendly to the game anchoIf Iflay games on the big screen in daily use, this feature in everyday use can also come in handy.
Of course, the essential thing is naturally the mobile phone peripherals. The game controllers, keyboard and mouse, cooling back clips, Bluetooth gaming headsets, etc., in the Black Shark series peripherals support the Black Shark 4S Gundam Limited Edition mobile phone.
In the game, swipe down from any two corners of the upper left or upper right to call out the game center.
The most important function of the shoulder button is placed in the control center. The two points AB are the position of the shoulder button, and the position can be customized.
For example, the one-key dual-gun function that everyone likes to hear, after setting in advance, whether the left button or the right button, can be pressed to achieve dual-gun shooting.
In addition to one-button double guns, it can also realize pressing and connecting points, which is equivalent to the point-connecting device on the mobile phone, and it can be set to press and hold to trigger, release to stop, and click to start, and then click to stop.
Of course, the magnifying screen function that game players value most has also been put in the mobile phone. After turning on this function, it is equivalent to bringing an 8x mirror.
The most interesting function should be the voice control function. After the control function is turned on, call the function name (such as blood increase, grenade) in the game, and this function can be realized without clicking.In addition, there are a variety of game adaptations in the smart cube, and users can choose various functions; it is simply a plug-in. Of course, as a black shark phone, shark sauce is indispensable.
Users can still set their shark sauce, and shark sauce can also prompt various data in the game in real-time and can use voice as an alarm clock in daily use.

In terms of shooting that many gaming phones do not pay attention to, the Black Shark 4S Gundam Limited Edition still achieves a very high level, not just scanning the code. The 48-megapixel primary camera with 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle and 5-megapixel macro lens has reached the flagship level.
Let’s take a look at the sample.
The shooting time was around 4 pm, cloudy, and the light was relatively weak. The Black Shark 4S Gundam Limited Edition retains the details of the scene in a low-light environment. AA complex shooting environment does not deliberately please the user to overexpose the picture but honestly restores the scene light environment.

However, the exterior glass reflections and indoor lighting can be displayed, and the details are still in place. The macro lens of the Black Shark 4S Gundam Limited Edition has 3 million pixels, but the actual effect is unexpectedly good.

Playing games is one of the most power-hungry mobile apps, but on Black Shark 4S, even if the battery is completely out of power, it is not a big problem to take it out for 10 minutes and play it intermittently for a day.
In addition, it is not difficult to see from the charging process that in the top 80%, the charging speed of the Black Shark 4S Gundam Limited Edition is breakneck, basically maintaining a 10% charging speed for the mobile phone in 1 minutTheThe charging speed slows down onlyrging rate slows down only after the power reaches own, basically charging 3~4% in 1 minute.
