The Black Shark 4 series is the next-generation of gaming smartphones from Black Shark. Just like last year, the Chinese manufacturer will be announcing two new phones and they will launch as the Black Shark 4 and the Black Shark 4 Pro.

The info comes from the Chinese leaker, Digital Chat Station, and he revealed that the Black Shark 4 will be the model with a Snapdragon 870 processor. The Black Shark 4 Pro will have the more powerful Snapdragon 888 processor.

According to the leaker, the Snapdragon 870 version was supposed to launch as the Black Shark 4 Lite while the Snapdragon 888 version would launch as the Black Shark 4. However, the manufacturer decided to rename the two phones.

Black Shark 4 and Black Shark 4 Pro specs

Earlier this year, it was officially confirmed that the Black Shark 4 will have support for 120W fast wired charging along with a 4500mAh battery that fully charges in under 15 minutes. The leaker says these features will be standard across both devices. So if you are getting the less-powerful version, you will also get 120W fast charging and a 4500mAh battery.

Another info revealed by the leaker is the screen size and resolution of the pro model. Last year’s Black Shark Pro 3 was one of the phones with the biggest displays with a massive 7-inch screen 90Hz AMOLED panel with a 1440p resolution. This year, Black Shark has cut down not only the screen size but also the resolution. The Black Shark 4 will have a 6.67-inch screen with a 1080p resolution. We don’t know the screen size and resolution of the standard model but the resolution will most definitely be 1080p too.

The new phones should launch this month in China before a global release later.
