Xiaomi-backed Black Shark recently launched its third gaming smartphone in the Chinese market — Black Shark 2. The company has already confirmed that the phone will be launched in India on 27th May.

Now, ahead of the launch, a teaser posted by Flipkart for its new Flipkart Edge program confirms that the Black Shark 2 gaming smartphone will be exclusively available on its e-commerce platform in India.

The smartphone comes with a different design from the original and its predecessor Black Shark Helo. The phone doesn’t have super thin bezels surrounding the display, which isn’t surprising but are quite thin than those of its predecessors.

Black Shark 2 comes with a 6.39-inch AMOLED display with 2340 x 1080 pixels screen resolution and 19.5:9 aspect ratio. The company is calling it a TrueView Display which restores true color to the screen.

It also packs a dedicated image processing chip, which automatically adjusts the display parameters for the best color output. It also has features like Full DC dimming, MEMC intelligent motion, Super HDR, and an eye protection mode.

The device is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 855 octa-core processor and comes in four variants – 6GB RAM + 128GB, 8GB RAM + 128GB, 8GB RAM + 256GB, and 12GB RAM + 256GB. It’s not yet known which variant will make it to the Indian shores.

It comes with Liquid Cooling 3.0 with its tower-style cooling design that efficiently covers the heat-generating components of the phone. Liquid Cooling 3.0 is claimed to be 20 times more efficient in heat dissipation.

As for the camera department, on the front, there’s a 20MP 0.9μm f/2.0 sensor covered with a 5P lens. On the rear side, the phone features a 48MP f/1.75 0.8μm primary camera paired with a 12MP f/2.2 telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom.

Under its hood is a 4,000mAh battery with support for 27W fast charging. The company has also launched a bunch of peripherals including a cooling fan and gamepads. We expect these accessories to get launched along with the smartphone in India.
