Blackview Oscal S70 Pro Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

Blackview Oscal S70 Pro - outdated format

The image of an inexpensive smartphone with protection against dust and moisture according to IP68 standards has changed significantly in recent years. From huge, low-function phones, these devices have come a long way to long-playing and rather productive devices with noticeably improved ergonomics. Unfortunately, the hero of today's review is much closer to the first category of gadgets, the relevance of which is getting lower.

The appearance of the novelty is definitely not its strong point. Only a block of three photomodules and colors of cases with rubberized elements were successful. The monoblock is heavy, large, it is not easy to hold it with one hand. There is no fingerprint scanner, the display frames are large, they often distract from what is happening on the screen. The 6.1-inch IPS panel itself doesn't have many competitive advantages. Realistic color reproduction and relatively good image clarity at HD + resolution contrast with mediocre contrast and brightness.

The MediaTek Helio P35 processor, 4GB of RAM and the PowerVR GE8320 video chip are assigned to the role of technical characteristics. Needless to say, the bundle is not particularly relevant today and is inferior in performance to the solution from UNISOC in the price segment. Only 100 thousand AnTuTu points indicate that you can get smooth comfortable gameplay either in two-dimensional games, or in the most undemanding projects like World Of Tanks Blitz. Of course, the graphics settings will be close to the minimum. 64GB of ROM in the current realities may not be enough for the user, so the presence of a MicroSD slot pleases. As for the applied chipset, at least in terms of energy efficiency, it did not fall flat on its face. From a battery of 6580 mAh, you can expect two days of operation of a mobile assistant. It is a pity that the charging power only reached a modest 10W.

The photo capabilities of the main 13- and 0.3-megapixel base ones, if not worse. They are useful for shooting documents, static objects in excellent daylight, but any deviation from these scenarios leads to noise, blurring, loss of detail and other unpleasant things. Stereo lovers will be saddened by the quiet mono speaker. Surprisingly, the developer decided to save on NFC contactless payments as well. As a result, the device is unlikely to find many fans.
