Blackview BV6100: Design

Despite the fact that Blackview BV6100 is a rugged smartphone, it does not look cumbersome. Judging by official images, the smartphone has a stylish and modern design. Most likely, the manufacturer was able to achieve this effect with thin rounded bezels around a large display.

Most of the front panel takes 6.88-inch display with protection against damage and scratches Gorilla Glass. As we already said, this is the biggest rugged smartphone on the market.

The notch with front camera is located in the upper right corner, not in the center. The manufacturer calls this design decision “Cape of Good Hope”. The Chinese company says that it is more convenient to watch videos or play games on this screen than on the display with notch in the center.

The bezels around the display are quite thin, especially considering that this is a rugged smartphone.

On the back side there is a vertical main camera. It consists of two sensors. Under the camera we can see a round flashlight. Also, there is speaker and company logo at the bottom.

There is no fingerprint scanner on the back panel; it is on the left side.

The body is protected by Gorilla Glass from both sides. The mobile device has IP68, IP69K and MIL-STD-810G protection against water and dust. These protection standards are used in the manufacture of equipment for US Army. We think there is no doubt about the high level of protection of Blackview BV6100.

The upcoming Blackview smartphone will have USB Type-C port, but there won’t be 3.5 mm audio jack.

Blackview BV6100: Performance

The manufacturer revealed only the main specifications of its new smartphone. Blackview BV6100 will be powered by MediaTek Helio A22 processor. This is a budget quad-core chipset with a clock speed of up to 2 GHz. As a rule, it is used in budget smartphones up to $100.

MediaTek Helio A22 processor scores about 54,000 points in AnTuTu benchmark, which is a rather low result for 2019.

The smartphone will work on Android 9.0 operating system.

Also, it will have 3 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal memory. As you understand, the smartphone is not designed to run heavy games. Nevertheless, the performance is good for watching high-resolution videos, surfing the Internet and performing everyday tasks.

Blackview BV6100: Battery

As we wrote earlier, the smartphone is equipped with a big battery capacity of 5580 mAh. Given the large 6.88-inch display and energy-efficient processor, a single battery charge should be enough for 1-2 days of battery life.

By the way, Blackview BV6100 can be used as a power bank for charging other gadgets.

Blackview BV6100: Camera

The phone has Sony 8-megapixel sensor on the back. There will be dual camera on the back, but we don’t know about the second sensor. Also, there is no information about front camera.

The smartphone supports 4 GNSS systems – GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO and BEIDOU. NFC module for contactless payments is also available.

Blackview BV6100: Price

Blackview BV6100 rugged smartphone will go on sale at the end of July 2019. There is no official information about the price of new smartphone. However, given the known specifications, we think the price will not exceed $100.
