Blackview is a brand best known for its rugged phones, and the BL9000 Pro is exactly that. But what makes it stand out isn’t simply support for 5G or its massive 8,800mAh battery pack; rather, the access to built in high res thermal imaging like what you see in military movies. This announcement arrives just days after the Blackview Hero 10 flip phone went on sale via AliExpress, so let’s check out the new rugged phone.

Blackview BL9000 Pro: What makes it special?

The brand’s latest rugged phone comes with the “world’s first highest-resolution FLIR Thermal Imaging 5G rugged phone running on Android 14”, as per official notes. Simply put, you get thermal vision with this device thanks to the latest FLIR Lepton 3.5 unit.

The post Meet the Blackview BL9000 Pro: A 5G rugged phone with thermal vision appeared first on Gizmochina.

At MWC 2024, Blackview unveiled its first clamshell foldable smartphone called the Blackview Hero 10. Unlike the expensive foldables already available on the market, BlackView has taken a different route of equipping the device with relatively modest hardware to keep the price tag down.

While the brand plans to launch this new foldable sometime in May, the Hero 10 has been listed on AliExpress with its complete spec sheet.

As per the listing, the Hero 10 unfolds to a 6.9-inch 1,080 x 2,560-pixel display (60Hz refresh rate) and 1,300 nits peak brightness. It is claimed to endure 250,000 folds. A 32MP front camera sits under a disguised punch-hole.

On the back, it has a 108MP main sensor and an 8MP ultrawide shooter sitting on a large camera island which also doubles as the cover display for checking notifications, messages, incoming calls, etc.

The MediaTek Helio G99 powers this foldable, paired with 12GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 256GB UFS 2.2 storage. Since it uses a Helio G99 SoC, it only provides 4G connectivity.

Apart from that, the Blackview Hero 10 has a 4,000mAh battery supported by 45W fast charging. It comes with an Android 13-based DokeOS 4.0. It is confirmed to receive the Android 14 update later this year. The foldable is also equipped with stereo speakers, NFC, and a dual-SIM slot.

The brand has confirmed three color options: Sakura Purple and Eclipse Black, all featuring a vegan leather finish. Unfortunately, the listing does not come with a price tag, however, at MWC 2024, the brand did express its plans to launch the device for around €399.

It wasn’t the only affordable phone at the trade show. BlackView, a brand known for rugged smartphones also had its budget foldable on display. We got a chance to experience it briefly.

BlackView Hero 10 is the name of the brand’s first foldable smartphone. Just like other budget foldables, this one is also a clamshell vertical folding phone.

What makes it stand out is its €399 price tag. This makes it even cheaper than the aforementioned Energizer foldable. But there’s no word on its release date yet.

The specs on the two devices are different, however, they have one thing in common. Both of them are powered by a MediaTek Helio G99 chipset, which makes them 4G-only handsets.

The Hero 10 flaunts a 6.9-inch centered punch-hole display. The panel offers an FHD+ (2790 x 1188 pixels) resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. It also sports a 60Hz circular cover screen.

The handset arrives with a 108MP primary camera paired with an unspecified secondary sensor. On the front, it has a 32MP snapper.

It arrives in a single 12GB + 256GB memory configuration in multiple colors sporting a vegan leather finish. As for software, it boots outdated Android 13 with a layer of DokeOS 3.1.

Last but not least, the device is backed by a tiny 2,630mAh battery.

The post World Premiere on Aliexpress BlackFriday! Blackview A85 for only $109.99 appeared first on Gizmochina.

Blackview A95 the brand new A-series flagship smartphone from Blackview has officially debuted on February 21, 2022. The smartphone is now available for $149.99 only on AliExpress.

Blackview A95 comes with technological upgrades on design aesthetics, battery performance, low-light photography, and camera software algorithms thereby providing a whole new user experience. By reaching breakthroughs in the combination and optimization of camera hardware and software the rugged smartphone provides you with one of the best low-light photography experiences in its price segment. Compared to its predecessors in the A-series, Blackview A95 comes with advanced and better camera performance, especially when working with challenging and poorly lit conditions. 

CAMERA:

Blackview A95 features a 20MP Sony® IMX376 sensor that gives you great shots even in low and dim lighting and thanks to its 4-in-1 pixel binning technology and re-mosaic algorithms, the images are super bright at night as well as ultra-clear by day.  The 20MP sensor works on a theory that when in low-light environments, the 4-in-1 pixel binning technology helps four neighboring 1μm pixels combine into a large 2μm superpixel to improve the light sensitivity. However, in well-lit conditions, the re-mosaic algorithm reorganizes the binning pixels into original ones to shoot clear photos. The 4-in-1 pixel binning technology ensures improved light absorption, to produce a brighter image with less noise instead of being dark, blurry, or grainy.  

NIGHT MODE 2.0:

The second-generation Super Night Mode complements the 20MP camera very well. Compared with its predecessor, it gets upgrades on imaging speed to avoid shaking. Open this mode, and you’ll enjoy capturing the mysteries of the night. 

Combining the camera software algorithms, including the Super Night Mode 2.0, HDR 2.0, Portrait Mode, and PortraitColor Mode, you get high-quality images and videos. The Portrait Mode blurs the background and puts the highlights on the focus. The PortraitColor Mode keeps the focused subject in colors, and the rest will remain in black and white.

If users don’t prefer the preset modes, the Pro Mode comes in handy to allow for self-adjustment for the key camera specs, such as the shutter speed and exposure level.  Also, the advanced AI portrait Bokeh blurs out the background and keeps the focus only on you.

For your selfies, you have an 8MP sensor in the front with an AI beauty function.

Blackview A95 is available in three gorgeous colors viz: Summer Ocean Blue, Aurora Night Black, and Fantasy Galaxy Rainbow. It runs on the Android 11 based Doke OS 2.1 and is fueled by a 4380mAh battery, that gives you up to 7 hours of HD movie streaming and 25 hours of music playback. The smartphone also supports 18W fast charging that can charge your phone from 0 to 60% in approximately 41 minutes. 

Blackview A95 smartphone will be available with some offers and discounts only till 3 March 2022, PT. Under the various offers, you can get a smartphone for as low as $149.99. For more information on the discount coupons and offers click here.

The post Blackview A95: Major progress in camera technology appeared first on Gizmochina.

Last week, we witnessed the launch of new models in one of the best-selling budget smartphone series worldwide. Further, we learned that the global smartphone market grew for the first time in four years. Then, out of nowhere, two brands released shameless iPhone clones. At the same time, another company launched a Galaxy S21 Ultra-lookalike phone. All this and more happened in the last few days. Let’s take a look at them one by one in no particular order.

Before proceeding, we would like to let you know that the top stories listed here are based on our opinion. As your choices may vary, we would like to know your picks in the comment section below.

Top Stories from Last Week

New Redmi Note 11 series for international markets

After debuting the Redmi Note 11 lineup in China in November, Xiaomi finally brought the family to international on January 26. However, the series for global markets include totally different devices, namely Redmi Note 11, Redmi Note 11S, Redmi Note 11 Pro, and Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G.

Out of these four, the Redmi Note 11S offers the best value for its asking price. Although it looks and has the same display as the vanilla model, its specs are more comparable to the Pros.

The entire series comes with features like a high-refresh display, dual stereo speakers, IR blaster, MUI 13, a 5,000mAh battery, and more. You can learn more about them by visiting this link.

Smartphone market observed multiple records

The global smartphone market grew for the first time in 2021 since 2017. Counterpoint Research revealed that the shipments reached 1.39 billion units by growing 4% YoY.

The Indian smartphone, in particular, grew 12%YoY last year by registering 162 million units in shipment. On the other hand, the Chinese market shipped 333 million units and incremented by only 1%.

Finally, pivoting to the budget segment at the right time (ahead of LG’s demise), OnePlus saw an insane 524% YoY growth in the US in Q4 2021.

iPhone clones from Gionee and Blackview

Gionee 13 Pro went official last week with an uncanny iPhone 13 resemblance and HarmonyOS. However, it has entry-level specs like an HD+ display (LCD) and a UNISOC T310 chipset. For just  ¥529 (483), it doesn’t sound like a bad deal after all.

At around the same time, Blackview A95 also got announced with an iPhone 13 Pro-like design. Its main highlights other than design include a MediaTek Helio P70 SoC, 6.5-inch HD+ display (LCD), and a 4,380mAh battery.

Face ID now works with a mask 

After two years of the COVID-19 pandemic, iPhones can be finally unlocked with masks on. However, this feature is currently only available in the beta channel. Also, it requires iPhone 12 or newer models.

Additionally, Apple is working on a new feature that will turn iPhones into POS machines. This feature will be reportedly useful for micro-merchants.

MediaTek Kompanio 1380 is a new chip for Chromebooks

MediaTek announced a new SoC called Komapnio 1380 for premium Chromebooks on January 26. This 6m chip arrives with an octa-core CPU consisting of four ARM Cortex-A78 cores clocked at up to 3GHz and a five-core ARM Mali-G57 GPU.

It supports up to 4K 60Hz display, AV1 decoding, WiFi 6//6E, and Bluetooth 5. The chipset will make its global debut inside the Acer Chromebook Spin 513, which is scheduled to hit the shelves in June.

HUAWEI P50 Pocket reaches global markets alongside HUAWEI P50 Pro

On January 26, Huawei announced the arrival of HUAWEI P50 Pro and HUAWEI P50 Pocket to multiple international markets like Asia Pacific, Middle East, Africa, Europe, and South America.

The 4G-only premium handsets from the once world’s largest smartphone brand sport the same set of features as the variant sold in China, except for software. The global editions of these devices run EMUI 12 without GMS (Google Mobile Services) instead of HarmonyOS.

Despite their shortcomings in terms of software, Huawei is charging a whopping €1,199 for the HUAWEI P50 Pro (8GB + 256GB) and €1,299 for the HUAWEI P50 Pocket (8GB + 256GB). There’s also a Premium Edition of the latter phone with a unique design and 12GB + 512GB memory configuration for €1,599.

JioPhone 5G could be Jio’s first 5G smartphone

A report on January 25 disclosed that the Indian carrier Jio is working on its first 5G smartphone called JioPhone 5G. This device is expected to go official in June with much better specs than the poorly received JioPhone Next.

OnePlus phones might run H₂OOS in the near future

On January 27, popular Indian tech influencer Mukul Sharma tweeted that the unified operating system of OPPO and OnePlus could be called H₂OOS. Since his claim is based on a trademark filing by OnePlus, he could be wrong.

Anyway, the H₂OOS (Water OS) trademark is interesting as it combines the names of OxygenOS (O₂) and the discontinued HydrogenOS (H₂OS). The name has no mention of ColorOS, which the software will be actually based on.

Furthermore, a couple of days before this tweet, a tipster stated that the OnePlus 10 Ultra could debut in H2 2022 as the brand’s first superphone or ultra-premium smartphone. The device is said to house OPPO’s MariSilicon NPU.
