Xiaomi Black Shark global website hints at international launch

11 October 2018
It might come a little bit too late as strong competition arises.

It does not have one of the most important thing a "gamer" needs, which was also lacking in the Razer Phone:

A 3.5 MM HEADPHONE JACK for connecting your gaming headphones!!!

The ROG phone gets that right.

The Black shark does not even have expandable storage through microSD card slot. Bad.

          No jack, no microsd slot. Waste of money. Get Asus ROG phone instead. Or better still, PocoPhone F1.

              I wish this black shark Global version is running stock android.
              Hope Xiaomi can hear our wishes.

                Black shark vs pocophone, what are the features that pocophone lacks compared to black shark? I think black shark as a brand needs to undercut every other gaming phone with atleast as good specs as razer phone 2 and while being not more than 100 dollars more expensive than pocophone or else the pocophone will cannibalize all the black shark sales as it will not be viewed as good value as pocophone.

                  Budget gaming phone?
                  Sounds good to me.

                    It is already sold in Europe for weeks and my friend got it. The international global version with english box, eu 2 pin charger and international rom with google play and all the services and languages. I am surprised about this late information. Same as it was with the Redmi Note 6 pro which I got as global edition before it was even announced.

                      Imo Black Shark looks better than Razr Phone

                        is it JOYUI or MIUI?
                        because chinese version its JOYUI
                        & developers cant do anything with JOYUI
                        no custom rom at all...

                            It can step outside China all they want but with crappy LTE support it won't work anywhere else. Xaiomi better learn that there are more countries on this planet other than China and India

                              they better unleash it while the SD845 is still hot. don't think the Razer Phone 2 or ROG Phone are much of a competition, though. they may target the same audience, but looking at eBay prices, they don't target the same wallets within that audience.
                              you like the "gamer" aesthetic? but you don't like spending $800 on it? Xiaomi's got your back
