Red Magic has updated its flagship gaming smartphone with the new Red Magic 9S Pro featuring the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Leading Edition. For those who don’t know, this is an overclocked version that boosts the main Cortex-X4 cores. It seems the company has similar plans for its gaming tablet. According to tipster Digital Chat Station, Red Magic is developing its second-generation gaming tablet. It will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Leading Edition processor. It doesn’t have an official name yet, so let’s call it the Red Magic Gaming Tablet 2.
Red Magic Gaming Tablet 2 Alleged Features and Specifications
The tipster suggests that Red Magic will unveil the new tablet towards the end of August 2024. Contrary to the trend towards larger displays, this successor is likely to have a smaller display. For reference, the first-generation tablet, which was launched in July 2023, had a 12.1-inch LCD display with a 2.5K resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate.
