Exclusive: first photos of the 2K, MT6795 Blackview BV9000 with touch screen fingerprint scanner


blackview bv9000

When Blackview aren’t testing their latest rugged phone in a pot of paint they can be found working on the stunning Blackview BV9000 with 2K display and MT6795 chipset! Here are the first photos.

Coming in October the Blackview BV9000 is the smartphone which will finally show the world what Blackview is all about. For the past 12 months we have heard the name Blackview and seen a few of their phones, but nothing compares to what the company have in store for next month!

At this stage we don’t know if the final name of the new Blackview is BV9000 or if this is simply just an internal codename, but these photos show us the final design and we have some juicy specifications to get your heart racing.

Starting the Blackview BV9000 in the right direction is a fingerprint scanner. This feature is standard on most top of the range Chinese phones this year, and usually we find the scanner either on the rear of the phone or located in a physical button under the display. In the case of the Blackview BV9000 though we have a fingerprint scanner under the display itself! It is a feature that many phone maker have talked about but it is Blackview who could be one of the first to debut the technology.

Gizchina News of the week


Speaking of the display, it is a full 2K panel of unknown size, however we are guessing somewhere around 5.7-6-inch. In the details we have received the BV9000 is described as a borderless phone, but we think we will see some sort of bezel no matter how narrow it may end up be.

Our details don’t mention what the body is made of but do say that a Mediatek MT6795 chipset will power the phone with 4GB RAM and at least 32GB internal memory (there will also be a 64GB option). Front camera is a Sony 8 mega-pixel sensor while the rear is an impressive Sony IMX230 20 mega-pixel sensor.

The specifications alone are enough to bring back thoughts of the latest Zopo phone we spied in leaked photos yesterday.

Pricing hasn’t been confirmed but we don’t imagine the BV9000 is going to be especially cheap with that level of hardware, but we can expect a reasonable RRP when compared to international phone brands.

Blackview also have their Alife P1 Pro on sale right now which features a 5.5-inch 1080 display, and fingerprint scanner for those of you wanting an affordable mid-range device.

        so why they don’t reply a simple mail i send them? i don’t even ask for a lolibug update, just wanted to know how to fix a battery problem.
        4K local stores where?

    Nice. If they brought it out before the Elephone Vowney, I’d buy it. Yet again more competition for Elephone who are taking their sweet time.

      yes, Elephone is not so bad.
      but if you want to get a nice and cool smartphone direct from the manufacturer.
      blackview is the only and best choice.

    Shame this has a 2k screen, the gpu just isn’t powerful enough for a smooth user experience. The rest of the specs sound great though, especially the fingerprint scanned embedded in the screen as it’s the most logical place for it.

      about your question.you can wait the device release.
      then you can get all the answer.

      If it’s the MT6795T with the CPU clocked at 2.2 GHz and GPU at 700 MHz it will have no issues.

    MT6795 + Sony IMX230 = possibility of 480fps @ 1080p slow motion video support?

    • Walters Mikule
      September 1, 2015

      this is smartphone but not video camera.

      Pretty certain the max resolution for that is 13mp, yet to see a single phone that offers the super slo-mo option though.

    • mario.barc

      No! 480fps in helio x10 is lie

      • balcobomber25
        September 2, 2015

        It’s not a lie the chip can technically support it. That doesnt mean every phone with that chip will support it.

          You’re right, but I’m afraid we will never see that feature.

    I think this smartphone is now the best for its price. Also the Blackview’s support seems good and they release firmware updates for other phones. Nice job.

    I would be all over a rugged version of this.
