Short Review

  • The Blackview Wave 8C features a sleek design with dimensions of 163.2 x 75.2 x 8.8 mm and a weight of 193 grams, available in Sunset Purple, Dawn Blue, and Dusk Black.
  • Its 6.56-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1612 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 269 ppi, though it lacks HDR support and is limited to a 60Hz refresh rate.
  • Performance is driven by the Unisoc SC9863A chipset, with an octa-core CPU and 2GB of RAM, suitable for basic tasks but may struggle with more demanding applications.
  • The camera system includes a 13 MP rear camera capable of recording 1080p video at 30fps, complemented by an 8 MP front-facing camera for selfies.
  • The 5000 mAh battery ensures extended usage, although charging is limited to 5W and lacks wireless capabilities.
  • Running on Android 14 (Go edition) with DokeOS 4.0, the software is optimized for efficiency on lower-end hardware.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.2, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The device includes a USB Type-C port with OTG support and retains a headphone jack for audio.
  • Overall, the Blackview Wave 8C is a functional device with essential features for everyday use.
