Lu Weibing, who’s attending MWC Shanghai, posted on Weibo “5G is coming”. He says that by the end of next year there will be 5G phones costing less than CNY 2,000 – that’s about $300/€260, not including taxes.

His colleague from Black Shark posted that the R&D team has been preparing for the arrival of the next-gen wireless network and a Black Shark 5G phone will be released in the future. Neither committed to a launch date.

Go and see Black Shark's EU forum site. They insist on not letting anyone root their phones, support for BS1 is dead just 1 year after it's release. They didn't make BS2 (and maybe 1) kernel source available, so they are violating GPL license, Admins...
