Despite sharing the same display as its siblings, the high-end of the Black Shark 5 series bumps up the touch sampling rate to 720Hz. It has up to 16GB RAM and 512GB storage. The 512GB model splits the storage into an NVMe SSD and the more typical UFS 3.1 storage. It also has the DM Cache technology that improves random read and write performance.

The Pro variant has a 4650mAh battery with support for 120W fast charging.

As far as optics go, it has a 108MP main camera, a 13MP ultra wide-angle camera, and a 5MP macro lens.
