Redmagic 7, expected to be the next gaming phone from the Chinese brand, is likely to have 165W charging support. The phone appeared on 3C’s certification website where it is listed together with a charger supporting up to 165W of power output.The Redmagic 7 certificate was spotted by MySmartPrice.
If the Redmagic 7 could really support 165W charging, it would become the fastest-charging phone on the market — at least in terms of power going into its battery. Just for comparison, the fastest-charging phone on the market right now is Vivo iQOO 7, with a 120W fast-charging speed, which needs around 18 minutes to charge from 0 to 100%.
Whether the Redmagic 7 would charge faster in terms of time taken to go from 0 to full would also depend on the size of its battery – and that specification isn’t known at this time. Still, given the power figure, a mind-blowingly short charging time is pretty much guaranteed.
The company’s previous model, the Redmagic 6S Pro, featured a 4500 mAh battery. So the Redmagic 7 could include a battery with at least the same capacity, if not a bigger one.
Whether the Redmagic 7 would be able to take advantage of the full 165W output of that charger isn’t 100% certain at this point in time. It is also unknown whether the charger will be bundled with the phone or be offered as a premium accessory.
The Redmagic 7 gaming phone is expected to have the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC, which comes with a lot of firepower and could become the go-to chipset for new flagship phones. Further hardware specs aren’t known yet.
Nubia Red Magic 5 was launched in China last month with a horde of top-of-the-line specifications that are aimed at prolific gamers. The smartphone has now debuted to global markets, Nubia has announced. The Red Magic 5 has been listed on the company websites for the US, Canada, Australia, Europe, the UK, Israel, Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan, Indonesia, Taiwan, and Macau. Unfortunately, the Nubia Red Magic 5 has not been listed on the company’s India website and we are not sure if the smartphone will be launched for Indian buyers.
Launched in China initially, the Nubia Red Magic 5 has four variants but the global markets will be getting just the two of them. Nubia Red Magic 5 will be available in an 8GB/128GB model for $579/EUR 579/GBP 539 in Eclipse Black and Hot Rod Red colours, and a 12GB/256GB version in Pulse Neon colour for $649/EUR 649/GBP 599. The Nubia Red Magic 5 will start selling globally on April 21, the website has mentioned. Nubia is also doling out what it is calling Blueprint, which allows the first 100 buyers to get a $30 voucher for $5.79 that can be redeemed at the purchase. Moreover, four of the first 100 buyers will be chosen for an extra $20 voucher, which takes up the total voucher value to $50.
