Reference excerpt

Redmagic (styled as REDMAGIC, Chinese: 红魔; pinyin: Hóngmó; lit. 'Red demon') is a Chinese consumer electronics brand headquartered in Shenzhen, Guangdong, specializing in gaming smartphones and related accessories. The brand was launched in 2018 as a sub-brand of Nubia Technology, itself an affiliate of ZTE Corporation. Redmagic focuses on developing gaming-oriented smartphones. The brand competes with other gaming phone brands, such as ROG Phone, Black Shark and Legion. Its operating system, branded as RedMagicOS, is closed source. REDMAGIC products do not have direct, official shipping to many countries worldwide, particularly in regions like South America, Africa, parts of Asia, and Oceania (including Australia).

History

Founding and early years (2018–2019) Redmagic was established in April 2018 by Nubia Technology to target the gaming smartphone market. Its first device, the Redmagic Phone, had a design with RGB lighting and an ergonomic build. The Redmagic Mars was released in early 2019, introducing shoulder triggers and liquid cooling technology. The device received the Best of CES 2019 awards from tech media such as Android Authority, Android Headlines and PCMag.

Expansion (2020–2023) The Redmagic 5G in 2020 was one of the first smartphones in the world to have a 144 Hz refresh rate display, an internal cooling fan and 5G connectivity. The subsequent Redmagic 6 series, launched in 2021, is the first smartphone to include a display with a 165 Hz refresh rate, as well as an improved cooling fan (up to 18,500 Tr/min instead of 16,000). By 2023, the Redmagic 8 Pro featured Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset and a 6000mAh battery, highlighting the company's commitment to high performance and extended gaming sessions. Towards the end of 2023, Redmagic released the Redmagic 9 Pro, featuring Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, a 6,500 mAh battery and the ICE 13 cooling system capable of lowering down the device temperature by up to 18 °C.

Latest developments (2024) In November 2024, Redmagic launched the Redmagic 10 Pro, a device powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor. It has a 144 Hz AMOLED display, customizable shoulder triggers, and an advanced cooling system, ICE-X.

Glasses-free 3D In 2024 Nubia launched the RedMagic Tablet 3D Explorer Edition geared more for entertainment with an Autostereoscopic display, dual 3D cameras and eye-tracking.

Reception Redmagic's products have been noted for their competitive pricing and gaming-focused innovations. However, reviews often note trade-offs in non-gaming features, such as camera performance and software updates, compared to mainstream smartphones. Limited Retail Availability: Unlike Apple, Samsung, or even Lenovo, REDMAGIC products are harder to find in the UK and are only sold on a handful of websites such as Amazon (company) and CeX (A British second hand electronics store). Most sales are online imports, which reduces visibility to mainstream shoppers. Some users have reported delays and issues with shipping when ordering REDMAGIC products through the official UK website, particularly compared with larger retailers such as Amazon and CEX. There are anecdotal reports of stock sell‑outs and availability problems in Europe and other regions, but these are user comments and not verifiable sales figures. The Redmagic 10 Pro, in particular, has drawn attention for its mobile gaming performance at a lower price than competitors, although Wired's product review platform warned that "nongamers should look elsewhere". "Assuming you don't mind the enormous, angular design, which isn't very pocket-friendly, you may balk at the slightly janky software, the inconsistent camera performance, or the lack of wireless charging," the review said.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Redmagic

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Redmagic claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Redmagic before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Redmagic ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Redmagic

In research: Redmagic appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Redmagic in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Redmagic is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 2018 establishments in China, Chinese brands, Consumer electronics brands, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Redmagic outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
