Also, the rugged smartphone has a nice HD+ display with a recent Corning Gorilla Glass 5 for protection. Blackview BV9000 Pro features a 5.7-inch IPS panel with a resolution of 1440 X 720 pixels and a 282 ppi. Likewise, the smartphone is easily visible even under direct sunlight and has a nice viewing angle.

In addition to being a rugged smartphone the Blackview BV9000 Pro packs an impressive 4, 180mAh battery juice. So you don’t only get a phone that lasts, you also get a long lasting battery too. Depending on the software optimization and some other things the battery should last more than a day on normal usage.
A dual rear camera is something most Chinese OEMs seem to be using in recent times and it is what Blackview chose for their rugged smartphone. Blackview BV9000 Pro features a 13MP + 5MP rear camera and an 8MP selfie camera for taking quite decent pictures.
