Ever since China-based gaming brand Black Shark made waves last year with their first-ever affordable gaming phone, people have wrongly assumed that the company was associated with bang-for-the-buck experts Xiaomi. But that's not the case - the company has since clarified that Xiaomi doesn't own them, and operates completely independently of the brand. Black Shark, in fact, owns its own facilities for R&D, manufacturing, and marketing.
