Editorial report
Blackview Shark 8 8 GB / 128 GB / Global technical sheet
The Blackview Shark 8 suits anyone looking for a large, smooth display and a high-resolution camera; its clearest trade-off is peak brightness lower than that of most phones of its time. The IPS LCD display measures 6.78 inches, runs at 120 Hz, and reaches 500 nits. The camera’s 64 MP resolution is higher than that of most phones of its time, while its f/1.69 aperture is among the widest. The camera has no optical image stabilization.
Its 5000 mAh battery supports 33 W charging and reverse charging. The battery stands better than that of most phones of its time. The phone also has IP53 protection, NFC, and dual Nano-SIM. This global configuration has 8 GB RAM and 128 GB storage; the Shark 8 is also sold with 8 GB / 256 GB. Storage is expandable. It runs Android 13 and includes Google Services. Performance, the display, and the camera are typical of phones of its time, while connectivity is worse than most. The Blackview Shark 8 is a fit for buyers who prioritize a large display, camera resolution, and reverse charging, and can accept a dimmer screen. Its overall NeoScore is 5.4.
