Editorial report

Blackview BV5900 technical sheet

The Blackview BV5900 is aimed at buyers who want a rugged phone and can accept slower charging: its 10 W charging is slower than that of most phones launched around the same time. In return, its 5,580 mAh battery capacity is among the highest of its time, a notable specification for a device built to withstand demanding conditions.

IP68 and IP69K protection covers water and dust, while MIL-STD-810G accompanies resistance to knocks and drops from up to 1.5 m. The rest of the package calls for compromises. Its 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of storage are less than most phones of its time offer, though it supports memory cards up to 64 GB. The 5.7″ IPS LCD display has 720 × 1,520 px resolution and 295 ppi, below average. Connectivity is also below average among phones launched around the same time.

The 13 MP rear camera has an f/2.2 aperture, among the weakest of its time, and records video at 1080p at 30 fps. Android 9, NFC, USB Type-C, dual Nano-SIM and a 3.5 mm audio jack round out the specifications. The camera is worse than most phones launched around the same time, as is performance. With an overall NeoScore of 3.7, the BV5900 makes most sense for buyers prioritizing ruggedness and battery capacity over fast charging, display sharpness and performance.
