Nubia Technology, a smartphone manufacturer headquartered in Shenzhen, China, has launched the " RedMagic 5S," a 5G-enabled gaming smartphone with a 144Hz ultra-high refresh rate display, in Japan.
The " RedMagic 5S " is the successor to the "RedMagic 5 ", which we previously reviewed on Saiga NAK, and is the latest model with higher cooling capabilities.
Double cooling with air/water cooling system and cooling attachment "Ice Dock
RedMagic 5S" features Turbo Fan 4.0 and ICE 4.0 water-cooling system, which increases the maximum air volume by 30% compared to the previous model (RedMagic 3).
Its cooling capability is further enhanced by the extended copper plate inside the main unit and the ICE AG silver plate on the back of the main unit.
Ice Dock," a powerful cooling attachment that records minus 7.3°C (-7.3°F)
The " Ice Dock " cooling attachment is equipped with a turbo fan and a semiconductor device for cooling, and works to exhaust the heat from the "RedMagic 5S" through the ICE AG Silver Plate.
The Ice Dock's turbo fan, which has a maximum speed of 8,000 rpm, is silent and is powered by the "RedMagic 5S" main unit via USB Type-C. The Ice Dock can of course be used while charging the main unit. Of course, it can also be used while charging the main unit.
When the surface temperature of the device was measured using the battle royale game "PUBG," the temperature without the Ice Dock was 47.8°C, while the temperature with the Ice Dock was 40.5°C. The cooling effect was confirmed to be -7.3°C.
As the world sees more and more high quality smartphone games, smartphone cooling is an important factor that can lead to longer battery life!
More than just cooling! High-spec performance inherited from "RedMagic 5
The "RedMagic 5S" has greatly enhanced cooling capabilities compared to the previous "RedMagic 5" model.
Of course, the high performance features of the "RedMagic 5" are also inherited.
We will introduce not only the cooling, but also the performance features!
144Hz refresh rate comparable to a gaming PC
The display uses the same 6.65-inch active matrix OLED panel, 6.65 AMOLED ESports, as the previous model, RedMagic 5.
The refresh rate continues from the RedMagic 5 at 144Hz, the world's fastest for a smartphone, allowing 144FPS games such as Real Racing 3 and Dead Trigger 2 to be displayed smoothly and played comfortably.
In addition to gaming applications, the in-display fingerprint recognition improves usability in smartphone startup and biometric authentication.
Built-in shoulder trigger buttons with a refresh rate of 320 Hz
The " built-in shoulder trigger button," which has been included since the previous RedMagic 5, can be used as a trigger button when the phone is held horizontally.
The refresh rate of RedMagic 5 was 300 Hz in RedMagic 5, and it has been improved to 320 Hz in RedMagic 5S.
5G support for fast and stable game play
RedMagic 5S supports 5G, the next-generation communication standard, with SA+NSA dual mode to support communication in all major regions of the world.
Playing games with 5G high-speed and stable communication will give you an edge over your rivals!
High-capacity 4,500mAh battery and fast charging up to 55W
When playing smartphone games, battery life is always a concern.
The RedMagic 5S is equipped with a 4,500mAh battery, the same capacity as the previous RedMagic 5.
The RedMagic 5S supports quick charging with the Magic Adapter for RedMagic 5, a dedicated accessory sold separately, and can be fully charged in about 40 minutes at a maximum power of 55W.
Triple 64-megapixel camera
The RedMagic 5S has more to offer than just gaming.
The main camera on the RedMagic 5S is the same 64-megapixel Sony IMX686 camera used on the previous RedMagic 5.
The IMX686 main camera is complemented by an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera and a 2-megapixel macro-zoom camera, making for a triple-camera setup that includes features such as Super Night Mode as standard equipment.
The RedMagic 5S is a cutting-edge gaming smartphone with super cooling, 5G compatibility, a high-capacity battery, and fast charging.
The RedMagic 5S is available for delivery in Japan as well.
