Verdict

The Blackview Shark 6 5G (8GB + 128GB) is a budget-friendly smartphone released in late 2025 that features a large 6.88-inch IPS LCD display with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate and a resolution of 720 x 1640 pixels. It is powered by an octa-core Unisoc T8100 5G processor and runs on Android 15 with DokeOS 4.2, offering modern AI-driven photography and productivity tools. Key specifications include a 16MP primary rear camera, an 8MP front-facing camera, and a substantial 5,000mAh battery that supports 18W fast charging. Its main strengths are the fluid high-refresh display, expandable storage up to 2TB via microSD, and the inclusion of a 3.5mm headphone jack. However, notable drawbacks include a relatively low HD+ screen resolution for its size, basic camera performance in low-light conditions, and a lack of water resistance.
