            From this article I get the feeling that nubia Red Magic 3 is a half-baked product.

                    My RM3 have display issue while watching a video the black pixels are squared to green grey , does the Indian rom have problem or just my phone. Please help

                      I found the 12GB ram global version cheaper than the base model OP 7 Pro and immediately considered it but seems to have some unforgivable omissions,especially in the software..all that ram but no multitasking? Gestures? Software updates? And the Rom seems half baked.. I'll pass.

                        This was awesome. You guys should do this more often

                            PS: Most game titles had to be abbreviated, due to comment length, but they should be easy to understand or deduce what it is, especially if you Google it. Otherwise let me know, and I can tell you what the full title name is supposed to be of anything particular.

                              Hmm... Nice analysis. But, no dust filter, lack of protection around the grill raises concerns.

                                    LG Superfan, 25 Jul 2019One more question how is the performance with high end emul... moreAs for the question about emulators, here's what it will run fullspeed/no problems:
                                    Atari, Sega, NES, SNES, GBA, N64, PS1, PSP, DreamCast

                                    As for GameCube, it's the "same" machine as the Wii.
                                    You will have most of the titles running fullspeed. There will be some which aren't quite optimised in the emulator, and some more demanding titles will have dropped frames.

                                    As for PS2 emulator, this was a difficult system to emulate and you know that because PCSX2 emulator on x86-Windows has only recently entered maturity. It needs to be ported to an ARM-Android system, and so far there's only two options: Play! and DamonPS2. The former Play! is free to use, has a GitHub, and is basically being made from the ground up. It's not really usable, and you can call it "Early Alpha" stage if that helps. DamonPS2 is a paid App and requires internet service license check, so don't bother with the .apk sideloading. While DamonPS2 is much more "Late Beta" stage, the owners did this by stealing most of the emulator/code from the PCSX2 emulator. So it might not be best to support them.

                                    As for performance of DamonPS2 on the Nubia RedMagic 3 ??
                                    It's fine for less demanding titles, especially games that do not require a fast-action/low-latency such as RPG titles.

                                      First of all, thanks Yordan and Peter and the GSMArena staff.
                                      It's safe to say this format was a success and a great idea, and should be replicated in the future : )

However I am not really sure what to use for PS2 emulation. Suggestions are welcome. Also if you have any particular game in mind drop it here and I will see what I can do.
