A new gaming smartphone is coming soon and
it may be powered by the Snapdragon 865 Plus processor. The phone is the Black
Shark 3S and it was teased earlier today by the company’s CEO. Black Shark’s
CEO Luo Yuzhou took to Weibo today with a post that roughly translates into
“Lately, I feel something big is about to happen.”. The post was also quoted by
the official Black Shark account. While the cryptic message doesn’t reveal much
if at all, it is actually Weibo that comes to the rescue with its “device
identifier”.
As you can see in the image, the CEO made
the post with the yet-to-be-announced Tencent Black Shark 3S gaming smartphone.
This is most definitely the big surprise he is referring to in his post. There
are speculations the phone will come with the Snapdragon 865 Plus Mobile
Platform just like the Lenovo Legion Phone Duel and the ASUS ROG Phone 3. This
is not far fetched seeing as Black Shark’s second flagship for last year, the
Black Shark 2 Pro launched with a Snapdragon 855+ processor.
The specifications and design of the phone
are currently unknown. We also cannot tell if the Black Shark 3S will be
getting a “Pro” version since the Black Shark 3 launched alongside a pro
version in March.
