Editorial report

Blackview Shark 9 8 GB / 256 GB / Global technical sheet

The Blackview Shark 9 suits buyers looking for a 5G phone with expandable storage and practical connections, provided a less detailed display, a small camera sensor, and modest charging are acceptable trade-offs. This version pairs 8 GB of RAM with 256 GB of storage; the model is also sold with 128 GB. Its 6.67-inch IPS LCD display runs at 90 Hz, but its 264 ppi, 700 nits, and refresh rate are lower than those of most phones of its time. The large screen gives content room, while its resolution, brightness, and refresh rate place it among the weaker displays of its period.

The main camera has 50 MP, a 1/2.76″ sensor, and an f/1.8 aperture. Its resolution is typical for phones of its time, but the sensor is smaller than those in most of them, and there is no optical image stabilization. Video recording includes 4K at 30 fps. The 5000 mAh battery supports 18 W charging; both its capacity and charging power are lower than those of most phones of its time.

In return, the phone offers 5G, NFC, dual nano-SIM, expandable storage, stereo speakers, and a 3.5 mm audio jack. It runs Android 14. Its overall NeoScore is 5.1, a typical result among phones launched around the same time. It is worth considering for buyers who prioritize 5G and a broad range of connections, and can accept the limits in its display, camera, and charging.
