The Red Magic Nova gaming tablet debuted in China earlier this month and is now arriving globally.
Red Magic claims it’s the best tablet for triple-A games due to its combination of a powerful chipset, capable display, large battery, and sophisticated passive and active cooling.
Inside the Red Magic Nova is the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Leading Edition – a higher-clocked version of the SoC with a 3.4GHz Cortex-X4 Prime core and a GPU running at 1GHz. This matches the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for the Galaxy, making it the best chipset currently in terms of performance in the Android sector.
But while Samsung’s devices rely on passive cooling, the Red Magic Nova brings a 9-layer cooling system that results in a 20,000 RPM turbofan. Between the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and the fan, there is a heat pipe, air duct, heat dissipation alloy, graphene, copper foil, thermally conductive gel, mainboard copper foil, and an all-metal aviation aluminum body. Red Magic says this comprehensive system reduces core temperatures by up to 25°C.
A 10,100mAh battery with 80W charging support powers the tablet. Red Magic says you can expect 10 hours of gaming and about 19 hours of regular use.
The Red Magic Nova’s all-metal body features a CNC-carved mid frame, a 45-degree anti-slip chamfer, and an anodized back cover. The tablet weighs 520 grams and is 7.3 mm thick.
The display is a 10.9-inch 2880x1800px IPS LCD with a 144 Hz refresh rate and up to 840Hz touch sampling. It has a 20 MP front-facing camera and a single 50 MP camera on the rear.
