Chinese tech brands are stepping up their game to challenge Apple’s dominance in both smartphones and tablets. Following in the footsteps of Lenovo’s Legion Y700 (Gen 4), Nubia is positioning its Red Magic Gaming Tablet 3 Pro, which is set to launch on June 11 in China, as a direct competitor to the iPad Mini 7. To highlight its design advantage, Nubia has shared teaser images showing that the tablet, while similar in size to the iPad Mini 7, features a noticeably larger 9-inch display.

The Red Magic Gaming Tablet 3 Pro is reportedly the industry’s first 9-inch compact gaming tablet. Designed with symmetrical bezels measuring just 4.9mm, the screen-to-body ratio hits an impressive 90.1 precent. It features a 9-inch OLED display with a resolution of 2400 x 1504 pixels — a form factor the company believes is ideal for handheld gaming.
Under the hood, the tablet runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Leading Version processor, currently the most powerful in the 5G SoC segment, featuring a dual super-core setup clocked at 4.32GHz. The device was recently spotted on Geekbench with 24GB of RAM and Android 15 onboard. The device scored 2,654 and 8,037 in single-core and multi-core tests, respectively.
The tablet is also said to be equipped with a built-in cooling fan and thermal plates to improve heat dissipation, which should help sustain peak performance for longer gaming sessions. An 8,240mAh battery powers the tablet, supported by 80W fast charging as confirmed by China’s 3C certification.
In China, the Red Magic Gaming Tablet 3 Pro will directly compete with the Lenovo Legion Y700 (Gen 4) and an upcoming Redmi gaming tablet powered by the Dimensity 9400 Plus chip. The Nubia tablet will be available in black and silver shades.
