Snapdragon 845 sits at the core of this one, paired with an Adreno 630 GPU and up to 8 GB of RAM. That's flagship-tier silicon from 2018, and it still handles demanding games and multitasking without much fuss. Storage tops out at 128 GB, or you can go with the 6 GB RAM and 64 GB combo if you don't need the extra room. The 5.99-inch IPS LCD runs at 1080 x 2160 with 403 ppi, so text and games look sharp for the size.

On the back there's a 12 MP plus 20 MP dual camera setup with 2x optical zoom, dual pixel autofocus and dual-LED flash, backed by a 20 MP front camera for selfies and video calls. A 4000 mAh battery carries it through the day, and stereo speakers with active noise cancellation on calls round out the media side. Xiaomi Black Shark price in Malaysia starts from RM1999, and it ships in Black or Gray.
