Nubia Red Magic 3 256GB Expert Review Summary

Verdict
The nubia Red Magic 3 starts at Rs 35,999 for the base model with 8GB of RAM, and you`ll have to shell out Rs 46,999 for the 12GB RAM variant. And therein lies the conundrum. You see, gaming phones or not, devices like the OnePlus 7 (review) and the ASUS 6Z (review) can run the same games as the Red Magic 3, while costing less. What`s more, both the 6Z as well as the OnePlus 7 offer superior cameras as well.As a result, the Red Magic 3, or any other gaming phone for that matter, does seem like a bit of a tough sell. The problem has little to do with the category itself, and more to do with d...

I'll cut straight to the chase here – if you are a hardcore gamer, and you want it to be known with the phone you carry in your pockets, then you should seriously consider picking up the Red Magic 3. You see, amidst the herd of flat, all-glass flagships, the Red Magic 3 stands out with its full metal chassis and edgy design. Be it the hexagonal-shaped fingerprint sensor, the aggressive red accents or the camera module, which looks like a diamond straight out of Dangerous Dave, the design of the nubia Red Magic 3 is as unique as it gets.

Going by the Red Magic 3's specs, it should come as little surprise that the smartphone can run pretty much anything you throw at it with ease. The device is backed by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 855 processor which works alongside either 8GB or 12GB of RAM. Correspondingly, buyers will get either 128GB or 256GB of built-in, non-expandable storage. Now, as always, if you're okay with 128GB of storage, then just buy the 8 gig model as the performance delta between the 8GB RAM variant and the 12GB model is marginal.

The Red Magic 3 ships with a single 48MP, Sony IMX 586 sensor with an f/1.7 aperture on the rear. For selfies, the handset features a 16MP front camera with an f/2.0 aperture. While the handset doesn't feature multiple lenses with varying focal lengths towards the back, the device does offer support for 8K video recording, which is a first for the industry.
