A phone cooler is easy to think of as a gaming accessory. The other use that interested me was longer video recording, when I would rather have a practical way to mount and cool the phone together.

In this first look at the Black Shark FunCooler 5 Pro, the mounting hardware turned out to be just as interesting to me as the fan and lights.

## Magnetic attachment or the supplied clips

I showed the magnetic back and the two detachable grips. With an appropriate magnetic phone setup, the cooler could attach directly; the grips gave me another way to secure it.

Fitting the grips took a little pressure, then they snapped into place. That is useful to see before assuming the loose pieces in the box are just decorative extras.

## The tripod connection changes the use case

The clip arrangement also had a tripod mounting point. That connected directly with the recording idea I discussed: holding the phone in position while the cooler ran behind it.

I did not run an extended recording test in this video. The demonstration was about the physical arrangement and why I wanted to try it.

## It needs power while it runs

I connected the USB-C cable to turn the cooler on. The fan ran and the lighting came up; it was not a demonstration of a self-contained battery-powered accessory.

I thought the fan sounded quiet in that setting and liked the appearance. The included cable, manual and QR information were also part of the unboxing.

## The thermal test was still to come

The title and description contain a dramatic temperature claim. I did not measure that temperature, the claimed cooling speed or a phone's sustained gaming performance here.

At the end, I specifically talked about wanting a follow-up with temperature measurements and longer use. Until that test, my first impression was about the construction, power connection, fan and mounting options.

The price I quoted was the offer at the time of filming. The original Amazon link is below for checking the exact current model and terms.
