redmagic, the gaming brand of ZTE subdivision nubia, has launched a new smartphone in collaboration with Chinese tech and gaming giant Tencent. The redmagic 6 and 6 Pro are high-end devices available to order now in China.
The redmagic 6 has an Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 processor, active fan cooling, and a 6.8-inch 1080p OLED display with a refresh rate of 165hz. redmagic is also claiming a single-finger touch sampling rate of up to 500Hz, or up to 360hz with multitouch.
The redmagic 6 Pro has a bigger 5,050mah battery but a slower 66w system that takes 38 minutes for a full charge. redmagic says the non-pro 6 Pro can fully charge the 4,500mah battery in just 17 minutes.
Redmagic says the phone’s software is optimized for Tencent apps like WeChat and QQ. The company promises it improves game response speed, frame rates, and network latency.
