RedMagic Gaming Tablet 5 Pro: Liquid Cooling, 185Hz OLED in a 9-Inch Body

Currently on the market, gaming tablets are severely polarized — large-size models have poor portability, while small-size products generally have shortcomings such as poor heat dissipation and refresh rates that cannot keep up with competitive gaming needs. The just-released RedMagic Gaming Tablet 5Pro precisely hits the core pain points of mobile gamers, comprehensively upgrading key experiences including portability, performance, screen, and heat dissipation all at once, and can be called a gaming tablet with outstanding overall strength among tablets of the same size.

Let's first talk about the appearance and feel. This device is set at the golden size of 9.06 inches, with a body thickness of only 6.9mm, and the overall weight is controlled at 363g. Holding it horizontally with both hands for a long time while gaming will not create an obvious sense of heaviness, and it can be easily put into a backpack or even a coat pocket when going out without any pressure.

The whole machine adopts a double-sided flat design, paired with a CNC precision-carved aviation aluminum middle frame, launched in two color options: Deuterium Peak Transparent Silver Wing and Deuterium Peak Transparent Night. The most recognizable feature is the visualized liquid cooling pipeline on the back panel, with built-in customizable adjustable RGB light strips, giving the gaming machine texture a fully maxed-out feel. The side retains RedMagic's signature red physical shoulder trigger, allowing users to switch into the dedicated gaming space with one touch, and is paired with a side fingerprint sensor, so picking up the tablet can simultaneously complete unlocking, saving extra steps.

The screen is one of the core competitive advantages of the RedMagic Gaming Tablet 5Pro, with an industry-rare 185Hz OLED gaming screen placed in a 9-inch small body.

This 9.06-inch 2.4K screen is equipped with new X10 luminescent material, million-level dynamic contrast ratio, clear and transparent picture colors, global peak brightness of 1100 nits, with local peak brightness reaching up to 1600 nits. Even under strong outdoor light, gaming and video viewing will not appear grayish.

The four sides of the screen achieve equal-width 4.9mm narrow bezels, with the screen-to-body ratio breaking through 90%, and the 16:10 ratio takes into account both gaming field of view and audiovisual viewing. In terms of touch control, it is equipped with the Synaptics S3930 professional gaming touch chip, with 2000Hz instantaneous touch sampling rate paired with 300Hz multi-finger native sampling, supporting 10x super-resolution touch. Even with sweaty palms or wet-hand operation, touch disconnection is unlikely to occur. Playing FPS and MOBA mobile games with quick aiming and positioning is almost zero-latency, and the screen ghosting/trailing issue has been greatly improved. It is also equipped with Star Shield Eye Protection 2.0, having obtained SGS low blue light no-flicker certification, reducing eye strain during long gaming sessions.

For performance, a dual-chip combination solution is adopted. The main chip is the 3nm process 5th generation Snapdragon 8 Elite, paired with RedMagic's self-developed Red Core R4 gaming chip, supplemented by LPDDR5X memory and UFS4.1 flash storage, with a built-in CUBE Skywalk Gaming Engine 3.0, supporting screen super-resolution and frame rate overclocking, with mainstream mobile games all adapted for full-frame high refresh rate mode.

For the heat dissipation problem that restricts small-size tablets from running at full performance for long periods, RedMagic has come up with a breakthrough solution this time. It is the first tablet equipped with visualized RGB liquid cooling, with a new ICE Cooling Architecture that integrates a pulsating liquid cooling engine, a large-area VC vapor chamber, and third-generation liquid metal. Air cooling and liquid cooling dual circulation work together, and under high-load gaming, the chip core temperature can directly drop by about 25℃. Running large mobile games at maximum graphics quality continuously for two hours will not cause noticeable frame rate throttling or lag.

Battery life and charging also fully consider heavy gaming users, with a built-in 8300mAh large-capacity battery, so daily commuting and going out to play all day does not require frequently looking for a charger. The device is equipped with dual USB-C ports, supporting 80W wired fast charging. When out of battery, a short charge can support several hours of gaming. It is also equipped with an exclusive Bypass Charging PRO mode, where when plugged in and gaming, the current is supplied directly to the whole device, and the battery stops cycling charging. This can both avoid battery lifespan damage from charging while playing, and reduce body heat caused by charging.

In terms of software ecosystem, the RedMagic Gaming Tablet 5Pro breaks out of the limitations of traditional mobile gaming tablets, being the first to launch Steam Direct Connect PC Emulator, allowing 3A titles on the PC side to run smoothly on the tablet without complex adapters, and also supporting cross-device game save interoperability. Paired with a controller, users can get a gaming experience close to that of a handheld console.

The system has two built-in practical AI tools. The AI Tactical Coach will recommend equipment loadouts before matches, provide real-time positioning and team fight strategy suggestions during matches, and automatically generate a complete match replay after the game; AI Moji Voice Companion relies on a large model to achieve natural conversational responses, responding quickly whether for game communication or daily chatting. In addition, it also comes with a screen mirroring assistant, video editing tool, and e-book mode, accommodating diverse use scenarios beyond gaming such as watching dramas, working, and reading.

The configuration versions cover a wide range of needs, from the entry-level 12GB+256GB to the top-spec 24GB+1TB ultra-large storage version, all complete, so players with different budgets can find a suitable model.

Overall, the RedMagic Gaming Tablet 5Pro precisely targets heavy gaming users who pursue portability, using the industry's unique liquid cooling, 185Hz ultra-high refresh screen, and dual-chip full-performance to fill in the various shortcomings of small-size tablets, while also connecting the mobile gaming and PC gaming dual ecosystems. It is not just a simple mobile gaming device, but an all-around handheld gaming powerhouse that balances portability and high performance.
