Chinese handset manufacturer, Nubia on Sunday, announced its new gaming phone Red Magic 3 that comes with 5000mAh battery and an industry-first built-in cooling system. The global release of the phone, which was launched in China at a starting price of 3,199 yuan (around Rs 33,205), is slated for May and would come to India soon after, Nubia said in a statement. While other gaming phones rely on passive cooling, the Red Magic 3 pairs of liquid cooling technology with an internal turbo fan, increasing heat transfer 500%, the company claimed.

Powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 processor and Adreno 640 graphics processing unit (GPU), the Red Magic 3 is available in three RAM and storage variants — 6GB+128GB, 8GB+128GB and 12GB+256GB.

While the 6GB+128GB phone is priced at 3,199 yuan, 8GB+128GB and 12GB+256GB variants will be available at 3,499 yuan and 4,299 yuan, respectively. The Red Magic 3 also features up to 30W quick charging, an hour of gameplay with a 10-minute charge. The 6.65-inch FHD+ HDR AMOLED display boasts 90Hz refresh rate for smooth gaming.

The touch-sensitive shoulder triggers provide additional hardware buttons without the need for a gamepad accessory, Nubia said.

The Nubia Red Magic 3 could also be your daily driver as the phone features a 48MP rear camera (featuring the Sony IMX586 sensor) and 16MP front camera and runs Android 9 Pie operating system.
