The Xiaomi đen Shark Helo, rather than being a full-blown successor, seems lớn be more of a mid-cycle refresh, making key improvements lớn address some of the original black Shark’s weaknesses. The SoC of choice here is, once again, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845—the Snapdragon 8150/855 has not been announced yet, and if previous Qualcomm releases tell us anything, it is not shipping on devices until early 2019, so we can’t expect a lot of improvement in this regard. The external kiến thiết is changed ever so slightly: the dual camera thiết đặt is now vertically mounted & centered, & the fingerprint sensor is now mounted on the back.
