nubia Red Magic 5G review

You are probably thinking that the smartphone market is a little bit stale the last couple of years and we can't blame you. But you can't deny the fact...

A good balance between a sleek and aggressive gaming design, RGB LED included.

Not many games can provide framerates to match screen refresh rate.

That doesn't take away the fact that nubia's solution is a great value for money. You get a future-proof gaming display, flagship hardware, premium build, and fast charging (charger not included in the retail box outside of China)

nubia Red Magic 3s review

The number of mobile phones geared towards the mobile gaming market is increasing gradually in response to the demand for quality mobile games. It all...

The touch triggers are awesome.

The capacitive triggers lack sensitivity and haptic feedback adjustment.

So if mobile gaming is your thing, the nubia Red Magic 3s is one of the sensible options on the market as long as you are willing to sacrifice an up-to-date camera setup and some of the small issues we had with the software.

Nubia Red Magic 3S Review

With the advent of hyper-casual, cross-platform, multiplayer online battle arena games (MOBAs) and live stream culture, a gaming phone is more relevant than ever before. But from the Nokia N-gage days to recent past, this has been a stumbling pursuit...

Reviewing a gaming phone is a tad different than judging conventional phones. A gamer values and nitpicks on things that would hardly bother the mainstream audience. I state my case with Nubia’s design philosophy. Although the phone is a safe bet on...

Red Magic 3S review: The perfect gaming phone?

The Red Magic 3S is a great gaming phone and represents amazing value for the money. The inclusion of a Snapdragon 855+ is welcome, plus you also get a 90Hz display, built-in fan, at least 8GB of RAM, and the hardware shoulder buttons.

Performance ; Active cooling ; 90Hz display ; Dual speakers ; 8K video (but only at 15fps) ; Value for money

Larger than most devices ; Design won't appeal to all ; Single-camera ; No NFC ; Non-expandable storage

Red Magic 3S

The Red Magic 3S is a superb choice for the mobile gamers among us, but we don't feel the minor upgrades can quite justify this new release. Read why in our full review.

Average camera ; OS needs some love and care ; No L1 support for streaming

Nubia Red Magic 3S Review

Can Nubia successfully cast a spell on gamers?

Useful shoulder buttons ; Internal fan cools effectively ; Loud stereo speakers

Missing portrait mode ; No video stabilisation ; Camera performance below average ; Bulky

The Nubia Red Magic 3S is completely gaming-focused and works well for that purpose. The 90Hz refresh rate on the HDR AMOLED panel facilitates smooth gameplay. This phone packs in the best possible hardware for gaming, along with dedicated shoulder...
