Performance
In terms of performance, the smartphone is powered by the flagship Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor and is paired with 16GB of LPDDR5 RAM.

It is a similar tech that we saw on Lenovo’s gaming phone Legion Y90.
To utilize the power of Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, the Black Shark 5 Pro uses two VC liquid cooling plates that are three-dimensionally distributed, with a total area of an astonishing 5320mm² (4,323 mm² + 997 mm², one on each side). Further, an anti-gravity track design is added inside the VC to enhance the capillary force and enhance the ability of the liquid to upstream.
