As the release date is getting closer, it’s logical to hear more news concerning its key features. Moreover, that’s not a secret that before the launch, the manufacturer sends out the review models to select bloggers. In their turn, they provide noteworthy information before the phones officially appear on the stage. The Black Shark 5 series is no exception.
