Nubia’s RedMagic 5G gaming phone claims to be the world's first smartphone with a 144-Hz display.
For example, while the AMOLED display on the OnePlus 8 Pro tops out at 120-Hz (it updates 120 times per second), the RedMagic 5G betters that with a refresh rate of 144 Hz.
Packing the refresh rate that premium desktop computer gamers want most, the RedMagic 5G gaming smartphone also rocks a flagship processor, a triple-lens camera, fast-charging battery and 5G mobile comms.
Their 6.65-inch AMOLED display has a 1080 x 2340 resolution (387.5 ppi), 600-nits max brightness with 4096 control levels, covers 100% of the DCI-P3 color gamut and has a contrast ratio of 100,000:1. It benefits from a 240-Hz touch sampling rate for fast response. And the shoulder trigger buttons now have a 300-Hz touch refresh rate and 2-ms touch delay for an improved console-like control setup. The phone also features in-screen fingerprint technology to unlock the phone.
Processing and graphics come via a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 chipset, supported by up to 12 GB of LPDDR5 RAM and up to 256 GB of UFS 3.0 storage (reported as 83% faster than the previous flash storage specification). This phone is 5G-compatible too, with SA and NSA dual modes for key region support.
The main camera of the triple lens setup has a 64-megapixel Sony IMX686 sensor, while the others are an 8-MP wide angle and a 2-MP bokeh. And there's an 8-MP selfie cam to the front as well.
