Announcement Nubia Red Magic: gaming smartphone with RGB-backlight
In one day with the presentation of Honor another Chinese brand Nubia presented the long-awaited Red Magic gaming smartphone. In the near future he will appear on the crowdsfunding of Indiegogo.
How is it interesting?
Nubia Red Magic received a 6-inch display with a resolution of Full HD + (2160x1080 pixels), an aspect ratio of 18: 9 and a brightness of 500 cd / m². Inside, the eight-core chipset Snapdragon 835 with Adreno 540 graphics is used, although we expected to see a more recent Snapdragon 845, like the Xiaomi Black Shark . On the other hand, there are no games on mobile devices that could completely load the processors of the latest generations.
The manufacturer decided to dispense with active cooling fans. For effective heat dissipation, a large graphite plate in three layers is used inside the case, and the metal back of the smartphone undergoes special processing. The cracks covered on the backside provide natural air exchange.
The smartphone is equipped with 6 GB or 8 GB of RAM, built-in - 64 GB or 128 GB without the possibility of expansion. For gamers, the GameBoost mode switch was made, which frees up resources for maximum performance in games, and also turns off unnecessary notifications. Operating system - Android 8.1 Oreo.
The main 24-megapixel camera with a Samsung 5K2X7SX sensor and f / 1.7 optics supports 4K video recording. Front module for 5 megapixels. For autonomy the battery with a capacity of 3800 mAh is responsible. It provides up to 7 hours of mobile gaming, but in PUBG Mobile the device will last only 5.4 hours. There is Bluetooth 5.0 and dual-band Wi-Fi 802.11a / b / g / n / ac with MIMO 2x2. Also announced technology to improve the sound of DTS, and NFC again forgotten.
On the back side under the camera and the fingerprint scanner there is a band of RGB-backlight for 16.8 million colors, several modes are available. The smartphone itself is available in black and red versions.
Where should I pay the money?
Chinese stores will begin selling Nubia Red Magic from April 23 at a price of $ 400 for the standard model and $ 480 for the 8/128 GB version. If we talk about other countries, on April 26, a campaign will begin on Indiegogo, where the novelty can be ordered for $ 400. All the details in a week.
The apparatus will be competed with the already mentioned Black Shark from the Xiaomi prattner with a price tag of $ 480. He received the top-end specifications for 2018, but Nubia Red Magic is cheaper. Another gaming smartphone Razer Phone will cost $ 700.
Since Nubia has long separated from ZTE into an independent company, it is unlikely to be affected by the recent ban on the purchase of Qualcomm chips and other American products.
