The Weibo post, shared by RedMagic’s official account, hints at a new cooling system that goes far beyond the setup of most Android phones. The hashtag implies that water cooling will be the unique element, with the promo images showing both black and white models alongside a transparent edition that appears to showcase visible tubing across the back panel.
RedMagic, which is a sub-brand of Nubia, has previously been a frontrunner in smartphone thermal management, utilizing hardware such as vapor chambers to maintain steady performance during extended gaming sessions. Liquid cooling would certainly take that to the next level.
No additional specs were confirmed, but the phone is expected to debut with Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset. RedMagic is traditionally one of the first to adopt Qualcomm’s top-tier silicon, pairing it with aggressive cooling hardware aimed squarely at power users and mobile gamers. We’ll be watching with curiosity to see how well it comes together in practice.
