Nubia launches Red Magic 3 Gaming Phone: Industry First Cooling Fan, 8K recording & 1920 fps Super Slo-motion
Nubia has officially launched its new gaming flagship, the Nubia Red Magic 3 in China. Judging from its official specs, the phone has turned out to be one of the best gaming flagships in the market today, coming with gaming oriented features like the industry’s first cooling fan, ICE 2.0 cooling tech, special connector pinks for accessories and a large battery.
Nubia Red Magic 3 Design
The Nubia Red Magic 3 is made for gaming inside out. So, the moment you look at the phone, the geometric design would immediately reveal it’s a gamer’s paradise. The new model builds on its predecessors’ design by adding a few more elements to its vector aesthetic design. So, the Red Magic 3 features a mesh-like design inside its V-shaped elements on its back, which wasn’t present before. Also, the hexagonal camera module is now better integrated into its groves.
The overall rear design is also a bit more curved, for better grip and comfort during gameplay. The RGB LED strip also makes a comeback on the new model. As for the front design, there are dual stereo speakers (the top one is integrated into its earpiece) with thin bezels on both sides. So, you don’t have to worry about a notch ruining your gaming experience. In fact, the front reminds me a bit of my Pixel 2 XL, but with thinner bezels.
The company has paid special attention to the phone’s cooling system. In this regard, there’s an Air In vent at the back and an Air Out vent on the side. This ensures that the phone remains cool, even during long hours of high-end gameplay. The phone also features the industry’s first cooling fan, which ensures that the phone remains nearly 5 degrees Celsius cooler than its rivals.
Nubia has added one more color alongside its usual, Red, Black, and Camouflage options. There’s a special Red-Blue gradient color for the new model.
Nubia Red Magic 3 Gaming Features
The new Nubia model comes with a lot of gaming-centric features. For example, there’s a new dedicated noise-canceling gaming mic for better conversations with your fellow teammates. Apart from the two shoulder button on the top of the device, the phone also uses its fingerprint sensor as an added button during gameplay.
The Red Magic 3 comes with 4D smart shock too, which is a smart system adds vibrations to match different scenes in the game, enhancing your overall gameplay.
As mention above, the phone features the industry’s first cooling fan inside. The fan doesn’t use any physical bearings and is made out of a nano material which is extremely light. Nubia adds that the fan runs at 14K RPM and consumers very little power. Further, according to its testing, the fan has a solid lifespan of 30K hours! This is further supported by a liquid cooled copper tube to keep the temperature inside cooler than its rivals.
The Nubia Red Magic 3 also adds a special gaming dock pins on its left side. This dock can take a number of Nubia specified accessories including the special Red Magic e-Sports box. This unique box accessory houses a 3.5mm headphone port, Type-C port for charging, and an ethernet port that allows for wired internet access!
Clearly, this phone is made for hardcore gamers!
