If you recall, Nubia recently partnered with Tencent Games with a view of improving the Gaming smartphone experience. In line with that, expecting a Tencent Games edition of the upcoming Red Magic 6 couldn’t be more pronounced. That said, this Purple and Blue color on the rear is quite different from the one leaked so far.

Nubia’s Red Magic 6 tipped to have a higher screen refresh rate than 144Hz

Jed John Ikoba — Wed, 24 Feb 2021 15:56:03 +0000

Nubia‘s upcoming gaming phone, the Red Magic 6 is expected to go official on March 4 which is only days away. As would be expected, the flagship device has been the subject of several leaks and official teasers which have been useful in giving us an idea of what to expect.

Nubia’s President Ni Fei is the source of the latest teaser about the RedMagic 6. The exec has subtly hinted that the RedMagic 6 will herald yet another breakthrough in screen refresh rate that would likely snowball into an industry trend. Ni Fei attributed the trend of utilizing a 90Hz screen refresh rate on smartphones to the Red Magic 3 released in 2019 and thereafter the RedMagic 5G led the shift to a 144Hz refresh rate a year later and that is currently the industry’s highest standard. The high refresh rate also offers a PC gaming-level refresh rate.

The Red Magic 5S equally arrived with a 144Hz screen refresh rate but the disclosure by the nubia President shows that we should expect something higher. There are speculations that the device will pack a 165Hz refresh rate. However, Ni Fei didn’t reveal the actual figure.

Apart from a higher refresh rate as touted, the nubia Red Magic 6 is also expected to be powered by the flagship Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chipset. It will pack a 4500mAH battery with 120W fast charging support which is capable of charging from 0-50% in just 5 minutes.

Apart from the Red Magic 6, Nubia is expected to launch a Red Magic 6 Pro which could even be the model bearing the higher screen refresh rate. The tech giant will also unveil a Red Magic Watch which has been the subject of a recent teaser and was listed by the US FCC recently revealing the key specs and design.
