more RAM the more enticing it is for consumers I guess, and eventually since devices are heading in the direction of portable gaming computers, you might be able to dock your device and use it like a pc, maybe even with pc games, who knows.

I'm very sure that there are better smartphones out there as of now, even if it doesn't have a under-display fingerprint sensor. GALAXY S9's definitely one of them, prices of it have came down quite a lot, making a good deal

Shame the Black Shark phones never have full LTE bands for use globally. The U.S. have never been able to try them. Hope this one will change that; even if it's the 8GB RAM variant.
