With the REDMAGIC Astra, the gaming specialist is launching a tablet onto the market that should appeal to ambitious gamers and demanding tech users alike. REDMAGIC packs state-of-the-art hardware, an OLED display with 165 Hz, active cooling and a sophisticated gaming ecosystem into a compact 9-inch format. The combination of powerful performance, high mobility and versatile connectivity makes the Astra an exciting new addition to the high-end segment.
– 9.06-inch OLED with 2.4K resolution and 165 Hz for impressive picture quality
– Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset plus RedCore R3 Pro co-processor for maximum performance
– Up to 24 GB RAM and 1 TB storage – ideal for multitasking and AAA gaming
– ICE-X cooling system with liquid metal, dual vapor chamber and 20,000 RPM fan
Compact but uncompromising: design meets performance
The REDMAGIC Astra was specifically designed as a “performance tablet for on the go”. With a screen diagonal of 9.06 inches, it is larger than many conventional mini-tablets, but much handier than classic 11- or 13-inch devices. The combination of a flat, transparent metal housing, RGB elements and rounded corners creates a futuristic look – without the annoying camera bump on the back. The weight remains pleasantly low, which enables longer sessions without fatigue – whether gaming, streaming or working.
Inside is the Snapdragon 8 Elite, currently the most powerful processor in the Android environment. It is supported by the RedCore R3 Pro, which takes on specific tasks such as display control, temperature management and battery optimization. Up to 24 GB LPDDR5T RAM and 1 TB UFS 4.1 Pro memory set standards in the tablet class and also make the Astra attractive for professional applications. Even complex video edits in 4K run smoothly and multitasking remains stable.
OLED, touch and refresh rate at the highest level
A highlight of the Astra is the 2.4K OLED display with 165 Hz, which will not only impress gamers. The combination of high resolution (2400×1504), 1,600 nits brightness and 90% screen-to-body ratio delivers an immersive experience – whether you’re playing graphically intensive games or watching movies. The touchscreen, developed in collaboration with Synaptics, offers 2,000 Hz instant touch sampling for precise control even with wet fingers. Flicker-Free and Low Blue Light certifications also ensure that the screen is easy on the eyes for hours on end.
Cooled like a gaming PC: ICE-X in action
REDMAGIC relies on an elaborate 13-layer cooling system including liquid metal, vapor chambers and an active fan with 20,000 rpm to ensure that performance is not slowed down by overheating. This architecture, supplemented by graphene and copper elements, effectively prevents thermal throttling – even during long sessions with titles such as Genshin Impact or COD Mobile. According to the manufacturer, the innovative cooling not only improves stability, but also charging efficiency by up to 13%.
Battery life and audio: endurance with sound expertise
With 8,200 mAh, the Astra offers an exceptionally powerful battery for its size. In practice, this means over 6.5 hours of COD Mobile, 33 hours of video playback or working all day without recharging. The fast charging system brings the battery back to 100% in just 64 minutes. Added to this is the “Charge Separation” technology, which protects battery health during prolonged use. The acoustic setup is impressive with stereo speakers (DTS:X Ultra) and rich 3D sound, accompanied by precise haptic feedback thanks to X-axis vibration motors.
Gaming ecosystem and smart software functions
The integrated X-Gravity Gaming Center allows optimized gaming with image output up to 8K/60Hz or 2K/240Hz, controller and mouse support as well as frame interpolation for even smoother gameplay. Many AAA titles such as Wuthering Waves, Blade & Soul or Delta Force are supported. The setup is complemented by the Google Gemini-supported REDMAGIC OS 10.5 based on Android 15, with features such as multitasking shortcuts, real-time translation and intelligent image processing. The combination of USB 3.2 Gen 2, DisplayPort-Out, fingerprint & face unlock and the freely assignable “Magic Key” rounds off the package.
