        I bet it's for china only... same as before... Shall take half year to go global... Shame on you xiaomi... Looks like you made phone just for local china market only... Do not bother elsewhere... China market just enough to gain your profit isn't it?

          Looks fancy, while still retaining some of the uniqueness of the original black shark.

            already looks better than Razer phone 2. Now launch it with something like Project Linda and I am yours

                          i admit i do like the design of black shark and asus rog more than the razer phone. my idea of a perfect gaming phone now would be the design of either black shark or rog, and the specs of the razer phone 2. likewise, it should have the front-firing bassy speakers, quad-hd resolution, and 120Hz refresh rate of the razer phone.

                          as for the rgb lght up logo, i don't think that's really necessary and i don't see any purpose in it aside from flashing to the world the fact that you have a gaming phone in your hand; otherwise, i guess it is okay if it doesn't tax the battery nor the RAM too much. i mean, it wouldn't be the case really because that is light so it would need sizeable slice of power from the battery, and it requires the app that controls it to run in the background so it would use up ram likewise. so, no- we don't need the light up logo.

                            VeniceHoe, 13 Oct 2018Probably Hefner because he was such a Playboy. Nice one

                                  AnonD-632062, 12 Oct 2018ROG Phone has a 3.5 mm headphone jack. Razer phone has a... moreMost of the 3.5 jacks are going away unfortunately and if the 128gb model is cheap enough then working without an SD slot is doable. The 64gb model however is a joke.

                                  What makes the phone completely worthless is the crappy LTE support. Only half the support of the razor and far less then the ROG phone. it's like Xaiomi doesn't even understand what LTE even is or how it works. They have no concept of what it takes to make a phone that works outside of China and continue to have no clue.

                                      Yaay useless rgb lights everywhere

                                        That is a daring and avant-garde design, and not the dull and boring designs that take many brands nowadays, as it is the case of Nokia, for example.
                                        Xiaomi is a brand that is very worthwhile. The Pocophone F1 model is the best value for money, and this Black Shark is beautiful.
                                        However Nokia launches totally boring designs and that on top of its value for money is very bad.
