    • Fast charging
    • Fit to gaming accessories

  • Wouldn't buy a second time

    Hello guys. So, i always like to try new stuff, so BS3 was really a good option for me. I like to promote new brands etc, especially when the price / performance ratio is good. This is what BS3 looked at that time. Overall, the phone is good, build quality good, it has some minor bugs, but nothing you cant live with.
    The biggest flaw is the updates. Oh gosh, the lack of updates. Today is july 26th and the security patch is.... 2020 december.. :)
    More than half a year with no updates. Honestly, I dont think that paying 100 something euro less is worth having no updates / at least on security side. So i guess you came here for a honest review, so this is it. If you will have this phone or any other BS phone, or red magic or any other gaming phone, please know, that you can forget about updates. Honestly, im not buying a second phone from BS

What is a Ki score?
Ki is an automatic score based on the specifications and prices of devices. It is calculated using over 200 variables to rank smartphones, tablets and other devices from best to worst.
How do we calculate the Ki?

In this case, to determine the score we evaluate 5 general aspects:

  • Design and screen
  • Hardware and performance
  • Camera
  • Connectivity
  • Battery

Once these 5 factors have been rated, we introduce the price variable. This means that any two devices with the same ratings get a different Ki score for quality vs price.

Even a device objectively worse than another may have a higher Ki score if it has a better price.

Does the Ki score change?

The Ki varies as time goes by. As new devices with better specifications enter the market the Ki score of older devices will go down, always being compensated of their decrease in price.
