Blackview BV5100 Pro Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

Blackview BV5100 Pro - a smartphone is not for everyone

Phone makers sometimes go overboard in giving their creations an unusual competitive edge. Additional displays, projectors, ultraviolet sensors - which we just haven't seen over the past couple of years. The Chinese company Blackview decided to equip its new product with a barcode scanner . Store and warehouse workers may find such a thing useful, but what is the gadget in store for other users?

In terms of appearance, the new product almost completely repeats its predecessor. Unfortunately, the dimensions of the case protected from dust and moisture ( IP68 ) have increased due to the function of reading bar codes, however, the beautiful design of the four photo modules, the side fingerprint sensor and the overall brutality of the exterior have a positive effect on the perception of the device. The 5.7-inch OGS-screen with a resolution of 1440x720 pixels has not changed in terms of clarity, brightness and contrast of the image. Taking into account the increased price tag, it becomes more difficult to consider an IPS display of high quality.

But the technical characteristics have improved. The Mediatek Helio P70 processor , 6GB of RAM and the Mali G72MP3 video adapter are much closer to meeting the demands of the modern gamer. Demanding games lend themselves to the phablet on low-medium graphics settings at a decent number of frames per second. The volume of internal storage has grown to 128GB , the slot for MicroSD cards has not disappeared anywhere.

The main 16 and 2-megapixel (three auxiliary photosensors) cameras provide the ability to capture documents, static objects. Daylight illumination is highly desirable to achieve high quality images. Capturing detailed and clear photos without an abundance of noise in the evening is very difficult. The front 13-megapixel module from Sony will give you nice-looking selfies that you are not ashamed to post on social networks. Increased autonomy (up to 10-12 hours of active screen time) from a single 5580mAh battery charge, NFC contactless payments and even wireless charging enhance the attractiveness of the device, but the impressive size and overpayment for a kind of functionality will not turn it into a bestseller.
