That is Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 coupled with 8GB of RAM. The benchmark further reveals a single core score of 2,452 and a multi-core score of 8,452. These scores are surprisingly high even for the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845. This means the company has something else under the hood for the Blackshark.
What makes Blackshark Special?
According to the sources involved in the development of the Blackshark claim, they know why. They claim that Xiaomi is able to achieve this feat with new design techniques. This is the usage of the aviation-grade cooling solution. This keeps the CPU and GPU from thermal throttling under load. It is a known fact that all electronics perform low due to thermal throttling under load.
The recent AnTuTu listing revealed some of the device specifications. These include a 2,160x1,080 pixel resolution display. Also, the device packs Android 8.0 out of the box. The Blackshark also managed to get an AnTuTu score of 270,680.
