Nubia Red Magic 5G review: Hardcore gamer

 

It's hard not to be tempted by the $579 Nubia Red Magic 5G gaming phone, given the value it offers, so we've been gaming away to see if it's worth your time.

Good gaming-focused design ; Excellent multimedia ability ; Plenty of performance ; Long battery life

Mediocre camera ; Poor software experience ; Fingerprint sensor does not work

Nubia Red Magic 5G Review

 

The gaming-focused Nubia Red Magic 5G has a buttery smooth 144Hz display and power to spare, but lackluster network band support makes the phone a tough sell in the US.

Fingerprint sensor didn't work in testing ; Middling network support in the US ; Divisive design ; Mediocre cameras

RedMagic 5G Review : More gamer now than phone

 

The gaming phone RedMagic 5G is effectively a collection of the most interesting gaming technology yet offered on a phone, jammed in the body of a very optimistic handset. This device feels like it was made by a company that had the opportunity to take...

Interesting additions/changes to Android ; Hardware switch launcher for Game Space remains unique ; Fan truly seems to keep phone from getting too hot ; Camera is decent, generally usable ; Decent stereo speaker system

Should include protective case by default ; No wireless charging ; Price only makes sense after extensive use

Nubia RedMagic 5G Review: An Unruly Android Gaming Beast

 

Nubia's RedMagic 5G is a crazy-fast, super-affordable 5G gaming phone hampered by a lackluster camera and buggy software.

The age of the “flagship killer” may be beginning to fade as OnePlus has essentially abandoned its “budget” pricing. Enter the Nubia RedMagic 5G , an unapologetic gaming phone that really packs a punch for just $579. expand full story

RedMagic 5G review

 

RedMagic's latest gaming phone offers enough power at the right price that even non-gamers might want to take a look.

What you'll lose by buying the RedMagic 5G is a high-quality design and user experience. While this phone excels with its class-leading refresh rate and chipset/memory combination, the lower-resolution display and uninspired software can't compete with...

Red Magic 5G review: Proof that specs don't make magic

 

If you've never heard of a Red Magic smartphone, we're not surprised: the gaming-focused sub-brand of Nubia (itself a sub-brand of ZTE) doesn't have a lot

Price ; $580 for these specs is legitimately unbelievable. ; Screen ; The 144Hz screen is smooth and gets pretty bright, no uniformity problems with mine. ; Performance ; This is a very fast phone. ; Gaming design ; Capacitive triggers are an advantage...

Screen again ; Color accuracy/calibration is pretty bad, and resolution could be higher, given the size. ; Size ; Doesn't matter as much if you only use it for games, but it's a very big phone. ; Slippery ; The solid curved glass back will slide across...

Nubia RedMagic 5G review: world's first 144 Hz smartphone display

 

A 144 Hz display, a fast processor, and liquid cooling - the Nubia RedMagic 5G offers all this and more at a bargain price. We tried it.

Fantastic display ; Elegant design ; Well placed buttons for a gaming smartphone

Poorly positioned speaker ; OS lacks customisation options ; Non-expandable memory

With the Redmagic 5G, the Nubia team has developed a very exciting, powerful device that comes with a few teething issues. Throughout the review, this proved to be a respectable all-rounder. It is only the disappointing camera performance that makes me...

Nubia Red Magic 5G review

 

The Red Magic 5G is great while you're gaming, but software niggles hold it back at other times.

144Hz display is ideal for gaming Shoulder triggers are handy Impressive battery life

Screen isn’t the most high-res OS lacks customization options Software bugs

The Red Magic 5G is a top-tier gaming phone with the world’s first 144Hz refresh rate display. Only a handful of games can make the most of that tech, but the list will expand over the next year, making this phone fully future-proof. You’re also...
