This phone is awesome! I love the speed of performance, the fantastic camera quality and the lush and aesthetic display.
Hiii. .
Does this phone have battery issues?
So i have been using the Blackview A100 since march 2022. And i have one word. WOW. wat a beast of a device. I must admit when i first decided to upgrade & went phone shopping i was very unsure of the device because i have never heard of the device. After going through a couple of reviews i decided to purchase the device. Now it is important to note that i am a HUGE Samsung fan. That being said i am surprised as to how well the Blackview A100 preforms. Keeping that in mind i strongly believe the A100 will give Samsung flagship devices a run for its money. My Samsung A21 which i had prior to purchasing the A100 was a giving ALOT of problems, It was unable to play huge games in its max frame rate. The battery simply would not last the whole day. The device did not have enough ram or rom & it constantly froze up on me. The A100 did not have any of those problems. The battery charges from 0 – 100 % in an hours time & it lasts me the the whole day which makes sense because it is equipped with a 4680 mAh Battery with Fast Charging. The chip set is a Helio P70 which is one of the best chip sets on the market. The device has 6GB RAM & 128 GB ROM. The Helio P70 chipset does not disappoint even when playing the most graphic demanding games.This device is an an absolute beast.
Now as with any other device there will always be disappointments. In the A100’S case the camera is a HUGE disappointment. ( The only downside in my personal opinion) For some reason Blackview decided to release the device with a 12MP AI Sony camera. Dont get me wrong the pictures are not bad but its nothing compared to the great Samsung quality which i have come to love. Why Blackview decided to do this is unknown to me but i believe it was to make the device more cost officiant. But looking past the one downside i am absolutely loving the device. The A100 is one of Blackview’s flagship devices and its great,
Now if you’ve heard there are no updates enrolled through Blackview etc. This is absolute nonsense. people that say that has no idea what they are talking about. I have received two updates since i’ve had the device. Keep up the good work Blackview.
Wow…This detailed personal opinion will be very helpful to future buyers. Thanks for your input!
