RedMagic 6R Review: In Details
Now that you have seen all the specs in detail, it is obvious that you have got some idea about this new gaming champ. But now let us look at all the features in detail to get a more vivid idea about the phone and whether you should invest in this phone or not.
Design And Hardware
After you have seen the RedMagic 6R specs, let us dive into every aspect in detail. So to begin with, the design of RedMagic 6R is surely a departure from their core line. This time around there is a lack of active cooling, the headphone jack is missing, and a punch hole designed camera occupies the center of the screen. Also, there is a decrease in the battery from 5050 mAh to 4200 mAh. Above that, the quad camera of this phone adds a big bump to the back. This has allowed RegMagic to make the phone easier to carry and also pocket friendly. The RedMagic 6R price starts from $500.
Software, Display, And Battery
The software of RedMagic 6R is certainly a patchwork of odd choices. On one side the gaming feature known as the Game Space app/launcher works well and is very handy if you are that type of person who brings out extra performance by modifying the settings.
Now if we talk about the display, this phone is packed with a 6.67″ AMOLED screen of extended 1080p resolution. It can display up to 1 billion colors. The AMOLED panel can be called as the key feature. It is one of the market’s fastest screens that have a 144Hz refresh rate. Other than that the screen has 395 PPI or 2400 X 1080 and an aspect ratio of 20:9. The screen is protected with a piece of Gorilla Glass 3.
And about the battery life, RedMagic 6R is powered by a 4200mAh battery which is a reasonable capacity for the 6.67” display and software of the Snapdragon 888 chipset. The global unit of this phone ships with a 30W power adapter. But in the Chinese market, this phone comes with a 55W power adapter which is a slight downgrade from RedMagic 6’s 66W charger.
Camera
The RedMagic 6R has increased to a rear quad camera series, by adding a 5MP macro lens to their group. The other sensor stays the same on the RedMagic 6 series: a 2MP bokeh, a 64MP primary sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide. The selfie camera has seen a jump from 8MP to 16MP. So it can be seen that RedMagic has prioritized the cameras a little with their all new 6R refresh, polishing all that was available in the RedMagic 6.
Verdict:
The RedMagic 6R review is a pretty town as the price it offers is good for a gaming phone, but the features and design it offers are not upto the mark and fail our expectations. Surely it has improved its contribution from RedMagic 6 but the sign of disappointment is because of no headphone jack and a smaller battery life. So you can buy this phone if you are looking for high end specifications within a budget. But if the price is not your primary concern then do not choose this. The Nubia RedMagic 6 price in Philippines is somewhere around ₱30,390.00 to ₱53,099.00.
