With Nubia gearing up for the launch of its next gaming smartphone Red Magic 5S, the Co-founder and President, Ni Fei, shared more promotional images. These indicate that the upcoming device might feature an overclocked GPU for better gaming performance.
Looking at the shared image poster, the Red Magic 5S is confirmed to support GPU Boost. While GPU boosts conventionally hint at a software tweak, a known blogger on Weibo @数码闲聊站 (Chinese microblogging website) stated that the device will feature an overclocked Adreno GPU in its Qualcomm Snapdragon 865+ SoC. The overclocked variant of the base Snapdragon 865 chip has a 670MHz GPU clock speed, and the Red Magic 5S will have an even higher frequency.

Unfortunately, this seems like speculation at the moment, so take it with a pinch of salt for now. But since the upcoming Nubia handset is made specifically with gaming in mind, it won’t come as a surprise if the company tweaked with its hardware as well as the software. Although, we will have to wait for an official launch before making any concrete statements, so stay tuned.
