The videos were shared through the company’s official Weibo account and were also re-uploaded on YouTube by SparrowNews. Thus, it is confirmed that the Black Shark 3S will feature screen mirroring, motion controls, and mouse and keyboard input support via USB connection. The device runs the company’s latest JOYUI 12, which now supports the aforementioned features, via USB 3.0. In other words, users can simply plug the smartphone’s USB charger cable to a laptop/PC to mirror the device’s screen through the Black Shark app.

This, in turn, allows one to output the handset’s display to a device with a larger screen at 60fps. Through this, one can gain input support for mouse and keyboard for improved gameplay experience. The controls can also be fully customizable on screen. Furthermore, the Black Shark 3S supports motion controls as well, bringing additional functionality in the form of in app inputs.

In simpler terms, one can just bind a certain motion command to a particular action in different games. An example being tilting the device downward to reload or upward to jump. This could help in various multiplayer games by eliminating the need for additional touch input through fingers, helping increase finger space, and a clutter free experience with on display commands.

To give users even more options, the Black Shark 3S will also have a clip on that brings shoulder keys. Interestingly, this can also be used on other devices as well. JOYUI 12 brings with it many improvements to its UI for a better gaming experience. One such inclusion is “Game Barrage” that shows notifications from SMS, WeChat, QQ, or others during gaming. Users get to fully customize the font color, opacity, and other aspects regarding these notifications, whilst vice control also enables many additional functions without having to put a pause on gaming.
