Reviews last updated: August 2026 · How we calculate this

What we like about Blackview BL9000 Pro (12GB + 512GB)

  • Phenomenal/long battery life (8800mAh) lasting multiple days with 120W fast charging support.
  • Extremely loud dual speakers tuned by Harman Kardon, capable of replacing a portable Bluetooth speaker.
  • Highly durable and rugged design with IP68, IP69K, and MIL-STD-810H certifications for water, dust, and shock resistance.
  • Good overall performance with a capable MediaTek Dimensity 8020 processor and 12GB of RAM (plus virtual RAM expansion).
  • Useful integrated FLIR Lepton 3.5 thermal imaging camera, particularly for professional use like checking electrical/plumbing issues or seeing in the dark.
  • Large, smooth 6.78-inch Full HD+ 120Hz display protected by Gorilla Glass Victus.
  • Generous 512GB of UFS 3.1 storage.
  • Near-stock Android 14 experience with minimal bloatware.
  • Glove mode for screen use with thicker gloves.
  • Good build quality and materials for a rugged device.

What we don't like about Blackview BL9000 Pro (12GB + 512GB)

  • Very heavy and bulky (412g, 17mm thick), making it hard for one-handed use and potentially not fitting in some pockets.
  • Mediocre camera performance, especially in low light conditions where images can appear muddy or washed out.
  • Lack of guaranteed or frequent future Android OS and security updates.
  • Thermal camera image overlay can be misaligned or have low resolution for detailed work.
  • Some users reported software issues like apps closing down or notification problems.
  • No 3.5mm headphone jack or expandable memory card slot.
  • Not compatible with all carriers (e.g., some U.S. carriers like AT&T and Verizon).
  • Power/fingerprint button position is a little high for some users.

Verdict

The Blackview BL9000 Pro is a robust, MIL-STD-810H and IP68/IP69K-certified rugged smartphone, built around a powerful MediaTek Dimensity 8020 processor with 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage. Key features include a large 6.78-inch, 120Hz Corning Gorilla Glass Victus display, a massive 8800mAh battery with 120W fast charging, and a unique, high-resolution FLIR Lepton 3.5 thermal imaging camera, which makes it ideal for professionals and outdoor enthusiasts who need durability and specialized diagnostic tools. The main camera system is a 50MP main sensor with OIS and a 13MP ultrawide lens, complemented by loud Harman Kardon dual speakers. However, the device is notably heavy and bulky (412g), making single-handed use difficult, the standard cameras perform poorly in low light, and it lacks a 3.5mm audio jack or expandable storage slot.
