The Lava Shark 5G is officially launching in India soon, bringing a budget-friendly package with promising performance and features for its segment. Lava has teased key specs and confirmed a launch date, setting up a competitive entry in the sub-Rs. 10,000 price range. Here’s everything you need to know about the Lava Shark 5G.

Lava Shark 5G Specifications

Lava Shark 5G Display and Design

The Lava Shark 5G sports a 6.75 inch HD+ display with a 90Hz refresh rate. It carries forward the design language seen in the earlier Lava Shark 4G model. The phone will be available in Blue and Gold colour options, featuring a modern aesthetic with a circular LED flash design on the rear camera island. It carries an IP54 rating for dust and splash resistance for added durability.

Lava Shark 5G Performance

Under the hood, the Lava Shark 5G is powered by a Unisoc T765 SoC, which is a notable step up from the Lava Shark 4G’s Unisoc T606. This chip helps the device achieve an AnTuTu score of over 400,000. The phone is equipped with 4GB RAM and 64GB of onboard storage. It runs Android 15 out of the box. 

Lava Shark 5G Battery

The Lava Shark 5G packs a 5,000mAh battery, which is ideal for long-lasting use throughout the day. It supports 10W wired charging. 

Lava Shark 5G Camera

For photography, the Lava Shark 5G comes with a dual rear camera setup headed by a 13 MP main sensor. This is a downgrade from the 50MP sensor on the Lava Shark 4G but is balanced by AI enhancements to improve image quality. The phone also offers a 5 MP front camera for selfies and video calls.

Lava Shark 5G Pricing and Availability

The Lava Shark 5G is priced at Rs. 7999, making it one of the most affordable 5G smartphones in India. It is available starting today across Lava retail outlets and the Lava e-store.
