Red Magic is getting ready to take on the Lenovo Legion Tab Gen 5 with its new Gaming Tablet 5 Pro, a compact, powerful Android gaming tablet built for serious play on the go. It’s launching in China on June 30, with a global release expected to follow soon after. The company has been dropping teasers that highlight strong performance, solid battery life, and gamer-friendly features in a portable package.
One of the latest reveals is the 8,300mAh battery. It’s a bit smaller than the Legion Tab Gen 5’s 9,000mAh pack, but Red Magic fights back with faster 80W wired charging (compared to Lenovo’s 68W). Even better, it has dual USB-C ports that can both charge the tablet, plus support for wired reverse charging, so you can use it as a power bank for your phone or accessories during long sessions.
Performance should be excellent thanks to the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset and an advanced cooling system that includes an active fan and liquid cooling. This setup could give it a real advantage in keeping frame rates steady during intense gaming. Red Magic is also throwing in a pre-installed PC gaming emulator for even more title options.
The screen looks impressive too: a 9.06-inch OLED with a 185Hz refresh rate and up to 1,600 nits peak brightness. That combo should deliver buttery visuals, vibrant colors, and good visibility even outdoors. They’ve also added DTS:X Ultra 3D audio and gaming-specific software tweaks to make the whole experience more immersive.
Pricing hasn’t been officially confirmed yet, but early rumors suggest it’ll start around 4,000 yuan (roughly $588) in China, with competitive global pricing expected. That would make it a strong rival to Lenovo’s tablet, especially if you value high refresh rate, fast charging, and active cooling in a smaller body.
With dedicated gaming tablets gaining popularity again, Red Magic’s latest entry shows they’re still fully committed to enthusiast hardware. The dual-port design and strong thermal system could be big wins for gamers who also stream, multitask, or travel a lot.
We’ll know the full specs, including RAM/storage options and exact availability, very soon on launch day. If you’re hunting for a high-refresh OLED gaming tablet with serious power, the Gaming Tablet 5 Pro is shaping up to be a very interesting option.
