Blackview cell phone
His phone was really cheap and so far as work pretty well it has a few glitches every once in awhile but overall for the price it has worked very well I would definitely buy another one if needed battery life is excellent and the screen is pretty good sound is just okay but it works for a budget phone

I support underdog brand phones that perform like this one
I just received the Shark 8 today to replace the worst phone ever made. I won’t talk about that though.My first impression of it as an underdog brand phone is that it looks very up to date and well built. It looks more like a $500 – $600 phone. Replace the brand name with with a top brand name and you wouldn’t know the difference. It comes with a case that fits it like a glove and that has a slightly slick but slightly grippy texture. There are better cases but for a free added bonus case, it will work and keep the phone from getting dinged and busted up when it flies out of your hand due to your butterfingers or lack of coordination and you drop it.The screen saver that was in the box was a different story. It did not cover the whole screen and did not adhere and stick to the screen. I sent BlackView a message about it so I’ll see how good the customer support is for this company and if they are going to send me the right screen protector.The Shark 8 is very responsive and fast with no lag whatsoever which was my main concern when picking another device. It sets the bar high for other budget phones in it’s price range.It responds like it has 6gb or the advertised 8gb of Ram and there is a setting that you can toggle on that will expand the RAM and give you another 8gb only when it’s needed. 8gb is the guaranteed RAM all the time and the up to 8gb is in reserve.I like the lack of bloatware without stripping Android 13’s character. It’s Android but not stripped to to the point where it’s bland. It is just right and IMHO all phones should be equipped like this.Also the skin that BlackView put over Android 13 looks like a hybrid between Android and the other top OS the way the icons look and some of the unique features it has.The processor is fast enough that you don’t have to say “come on”, “hurry up” or start tapping your fingers waiting for it to load. It’s instant. As soon as I tap the screen the selected option or link or whatever is selected is already loaded, this also applies to content selected on a webpage online. As soon as I tap something on the screen, it is loaded. If the part about being 4g was left out of the description on Amazon, you would think this phone was able to access 5g the way it performs online. It’s that quick.Which brings me to my next point. What I don’t understand is how the wifi hotspot that this phone broadcasts is 5g, why is it only able to access 4g data from my network? It should be able to access my carriers 5g network if it can broadcast a 5g wifi hotspot. That would make more sense.Another thing that doesn’t make sense is that developer options was already in settings so I didn’t have to tap build number x 7 but there was only 1 setting under developer options. Usually the are around 50-60 settings. It’s not an Android 13 revision, it’s a BlackView revision. I enable developer options on every phone I get to turn off the animations to make the phone respond noticably quicker but this device performs like the animations are already turned off.Overall I am satisfied with this device especially for the price. It does everything I need it to do when I need it to do it, not tap the screen and wait 3 minutes for it to respond. It doesn’t get better than this in this price range. If I had my choice of phones that have prices up to $600, after experiencing this budget phone, I would skip over the competition and pick this one as a daily use device. Because at the end of the day it does everything the other 2 top brand flagship phones do with the same efficiency and speed minus a few small features.All in all I’m happy with this purchase and will most likely buy another BlackView in the future when and if the Shark 9 & 10 are released.

Incredibly good phone
Fingerprint recognition on the switch is exceptionally good. The sensitivity of the screen is exactly right. only missing is 5G.

Worth every penny
Great Phone! Its equal to flagship phones that I’ve owned.

Blackview casse la baraque avec le design magnifique de ses produits d’un extrême raffinement, fonctionnels, opérationnels, pratiques, solides, performants, fiables et compétitifs.Satisfaction absolue.J’ai aussi acheté le Color 8 pour les mêmes raisons.Je recommande

Per 4 anni e mezzo ho utilizzato un Blackview A60 Pro con una scheda telefonica aziendale e nonostante l’avessi pagato poco non mi ha dato mai alcun problema, avevo però bisogno di cambiarlo, a causa della poca memoria, quindi ho deciso di acquistare questo modello Shark8 con 256 gb di memoria, debbo dire che sono stato sorpreso per la qualità nonostante il prezzo pagato. Che dire, ottimo sotto tutti i punti di vista.

Per un prezzo basso ho in mano uno smartphone decisamente più performante di altri di fascia media appartenenti a marchi più blasonati. Consigliatissimo a chi come me non ha voglia o non può spendere uno stipendio intero per un telefono.Ha tantissimi pregi tra i quali la memoria di archiviazione da 256 giga, tanta ram, schermo bello grande con alta risoluzione e un processore decente che lo rende molto reattivo e veloce.Molte sue caratteristiche sono da top di gamma.Tra i difetti purtroppo lo speaker è mono e la qualità audio che ne deriva decisamente mediocre, fortunatamente con dei buoni auricolari la situazione migliora tantissimo. Manca il display amoled ma sinceramente posso farne a meno, ma capisco che per tanti sia fondamentale.Il problema più grande per me è l’incognita aggiornamenti, soprattutto di sicurezza, cosa comune a molti smartphone cinesi. Io smarthfone nasce e muore con Android 13 e patch di sicurezza di febbraio 2024 o ci saranno altri aggiornamenti? Nessuno lo sa. Del resto la mancanza di assistenza e di alcune funzioni come il 5g sono lo scotto che si paga per avere un telefono così performante a basso costo. Costa talmente poco che se si dovesse rompere si fa prima cambiarlo che tentare di aggiustarlo.
