nubia Red Magic 3 spotted on Geekbench rocking a Snapdragon 855

Ro, 27 April 2019

We've had quite a few leaks about the upcoming nubia Red Magic 3 gaming smartphone and it's supposed to arrive as early as tomorrow, so the latest information comes ahead of launch.

A Geekbench listing score just popped up further confirming that the handset will indeed boast Qualcomm's latest and greatest - the Snapdragon 855. If there was ever a doubt, of course.

Aside from the chipset, the score sheet also reveals 8GB of RAM, but that's pretty much the norm these days, especially for gaming-centric devices.

Going by previous rumors, the phone will come with a built-in active cooling system - a fan perhaps - to cool off the Snapdragon 855 chip during long and intense gaming sessions. It sounds pretty ambitious and good thing we won't have to wait much longer to see if it's as cool as it sounds.
