Specs of the RedMagic 5G
This phone is a giant, coming in at 6.65 inches of pure AMOLED display with a computer like a refresh rate of 144Hz, a Snapdragon 865 processor, 12GB of RAM, 5G connectivity, 4500mAh battery, and 256GB of storage.
Features on Top of Features
The in-screen fingerprint sensor that is a must in this time of age and is surprisingly fast compared to other in-screen fingerprint sensors out right now. For the gaming audience out there who would want to know if the specs are good enough to game, it is safe to say that this will be one of the smoothest experiences out in the market right now.
On top of smooth gameplay, the RedMagic 5G has kindly placed built-in shoulder trigger buttons for more comfortable use as well as a liquid cooling system. Yes, a liquid cooling system on a very thin but large phone that is capable of a 144Hz refresh rate and most probably be a gaming computer if you could attach a graphics card on this monster.
The active liquid cooling system increases the internal airflow by over 30% and leaves the RedMagic 5G running about 200% cooler than its counterparts. That makes this phone so good to use and not warm to the hand even when you are doing heavy gaming or streaming, which is all the more reason to get one if the previous specs didn't already blow you away.

What is so Different With This Gaming Phone?
Yes, the phone is indeed built for gaming, given the build and form factor of it. However, if you have a keen eye, you would know that cameras are not the best out there when developers focus on pure specs. This one, however, is different. The RegMagic 5G comes with a triple-lens setup for the rear camera, one having a 64-megapixel for the primary lens, 8-megapixel for wide-angle shots, and a 2-megapixel bokeh lens. For the front camera, it's going to be a 12-megapixel camera that would put other phones to shame.
The Drawback
The phone is going to be released for the Chinese market this April. So there is something to rejoice still in regards to the tech industry in China, despite all that is happening in the epicenter of the sickness that is slowly spreading in the world. Don't worry, though, since more and more people are interested in the idea of a smartphone focused on gaming. The market would be open for future international shipments of the RedMagic 5G to other countries as long as the attention and feedback is an overall success. By the looks and feels of it, even without looking at the specs, you would know this is an excellent phone to have if you are looking for an upgrade in your one-month or five-year-old phone. No judgment.
The price starts at 3799 CNY or roughly about $544 for a phone that would give a better gaming experience than any Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra that out there. The Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra starts at about $1,200, and it's pretty clear that the RedMagic 5G would resonate with more people and sales overall because of the sheer price range of both units that have similar specs overall.
