Xiaomi is reportedly launching a new gaming-centric smartphone on 13 April. According to a latest Weibo post, Black Shark, the subsidiary smartphone brand of Xiaomi is all set to launch its first gaming smartphone on April 13th. In February and March of 2018, there were many leaks and rumours about the Xiaomi Black Shark The latest teaser image officially confirms the launch date of the new device. However, the company has not used the word Xiaomi anywhere on its teaser image.



Xiaomi BlackShark is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 chipset, which also powers the recently launched the Xiaomi Mi MIX 2s. However, unlike the Mi MIX 2s, the Black Shark is expected to have a sturdier design with a metal unibody design, which will help the smartphone to dissipate the heat. 

It has a black and acid green accent, under the joysticks and shoulder keys on both sides. On the right there are face buttons, a joystick and two small buttons under it. There’s a display in the middle, and the left has direction buttons with a joystick. The image shown on the display is the same poster that was teased recently.

Moreover, the leak confirms Android Oreo on the phone, meaning we could see Project Treble support alongside the solid hardware.
