If you primarily want a tablet device to mark up, highlight, and annotate your e-books and documents, and perhaps sometimes scribble some notes, Amazon's new Kindle Scribe Colorsoft could be worth the hefty investment.

Xiaomi‘s gaming-focused sub-brand Black Shark is preparing to launch a new gaming tablet in the global market. This new tablet, simply called the Black Shark Gaming Tablet, was teased late last year and has now appeared on the brand’s global website with all of its key specifications and features.

Black Shark Gaming Tablet features

The Black Shark Gaming Tablet uses an 8.8-inch compact design. It weighs 332 g and measures 7.7 mm in thickness. The body is made from aerospace-grade aluminum alloy with laser-finished detailing and will be available in black and silver color options.

At the core is Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 processor. The chipset features an octa-core CPU with clock speeds of up to 3.0 GHz and a 40 TOPS NPU. Black Shark claims an AnTuTu benchmark score of over 1.9 million. The tablet runs Android 16 out of the box. Memory is set at 12 GB of LPDDR5X RAM, paired with 256 GB of UFS 4.0 storage. Storage can be expanded by up to 2 TB using a TF card.

The display uses a 2.5K panel with a resolution of 2560 × 1600 pixels and a 144 Hz refresh rate. It delivers a pixel density of 343 PPI, reaches up to 600 nits of peak brightness, supports the DCI-P3 color gamut, and is factory calibrated with ΔE < 1 color accuracy.

Cooling is handled by a large vapor chamber, multiple graphene sheets, and a metal cooling structure, providing a total thermal material area of 25,176 mm². Black Shark also offers an optional magnetic cooler for enhanced cooling.

Connectivity includes dual-band Wi-Fi 6 with 2×2 MIMO, Bluetooth 5.4, and DisplayPort output with support for 4K video. Audio is delivered through symmetrical dual speakers powered by a K9 smart amplifier.

The tablet packs a 7,300 mAh battery, rated for up to 5.6 hours of gaming, 10.3 hours of web browsing, 7 hours of video playback, and up to 76 hours of music playback. Camera hardware includes a 13 MP rear camera and a 5 MP front camera.
