The REDMAGIC Nova: The Best Gaming Tablet? A Droid Gamers Review
Droid Gamers has reviewed numerous REDMAGIC devices, most notably the REDMAGIC 9 Pro, which we deemed the "best gaming mobile around." Unsurprisingly, we're now declaring the Nova the best gaming tablet available. Here's why, in five key points:
Exceptional Design and Build
The Nova's design clearly reflects meticulous attention to detail, specifically catering to gamers. It strikes a perfect balance: neither too lightweight and flimsy, nor overly heavy and cumbersome for extended use.
Its futuristic aesthetic, highlighted by a semi-transparent rear panel, RGB-illuminated REDMAGIC logo, and an RGB fan, is undeniably striking. During our testing, the tablet withstood several minor impacts without any damage, demonstrating impressive durability alongside its stylish design.
Unmatched Power
While not literally unlimited, the Nova's power is exceptional. The Snapdragon 8 Gen. 3 processor, coupled with DTS-X audio and a quad-speaker system, delivers a seamless gaming experience across a wide range of titles.
Impressive Battery Life
Despite its powerful processor, the Nova's battery life exceeded expectations, providing approximately 8-10 hours of gameplay on a single charge. While some standby drain was observed, even graphically demanding games posed minimal battery challenges.
Superior Gaming Performance
We tested numerous games on the Nova, experiencing no lag or slowdown. The touchscreen responsiveness was excellent across all titles, and the web connection proved consistently fast for app downloads and server connections.
The Nova excelled with competitive online games, offering a clear advantage over smartphone-based gameplay thanks to its larger, sharper screen and superior audio. The enhanced sound quality proved particularly beneficial in action-packed games.
Gamer-Centric Features
The Nova boasts several features that provide a significant edge. Accessible via side-swiping, these include overclocking modes, notification blocking, network prioritization, quick messaging, and brightness locking. Additionally, the ability to resize the game screen and even program automatic actions adds another layer of customization.
The Verdict?
Absolutely worth it. For tablet gaming enthusiasts, the REDMAGIC Nova is unmatched. Minor shortcomings are easily overshadowed by its impressive features and power. Find it on the REDMAGIC website [link removed].
