Design and Display
As mentioned in the introductory paragraph, the Blackview A80s design is an exact replica of the standard A80 design. Blackview is offering enthusiasts the exact same aesthetics.
The rear of the Blackview A80s bears a circular camera module bearing four cameras. Below the circular camera module is a capacitive fingerprint sensor and on the bottom is the Blackview branding which indicates it’s a Blackview smartphone.
Enthusiats who decide to purchase this Android smartphone will have three colour options and they include Tasteful Black, Modern Black, Dreamy Black.
Flipping to get a front view, we discover a 6.21-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1520, a density of 269 PPI. This display is surrounded by what can be termed as chunky bezels according to modern-day aesthetics scheme. There is also a drop notch on the display bearing a front-facing camera.
The Cameras
The Cameras on the Blackview A80s are pretty much low-end as expected. There isn’t any easter egg here. Blackview is offering a set of quad cameras on the rear and a single camera up front, making up five cameras in total.
Blackview didn’t really provide sufficient info on the camera hardware on the A80s. The only thing we know about the rear camera system is that it has a 13MP primary camera with an aperture of f/2.2 and that the camera is powered by a Sony IMX258 sensor.
Blackview didn’t shed light on the other three cameras that makes it a quad camera setup. However, we also know that it features a single 5MP front camera which is powered by an S5K4E2 sensor.
Hardware and Software
On the performance side of things, we have an Octa-core MediaTek Helio A25 processor, an IMG GE8320 GPU, 4GB RAM, 64GB built-in storage and a non-removable 4200mAh battery.
This setup isn’t in the high-end or mid-range category, however, it’s more than enough to carry out basic tasks.
On the software side, the Blackview A80s runs its user interface ontop of the Android 10 operating system.
