Red Magic 7 series to feature dedicated gaming chip, cooling system and UD camera detailed

We’re all set to cover the nubia Red Magic 7 announcement on February 17 but before the big event nubia posted several new teasers for its upcoming gaming flagship. Red Magic 7 will bring an all-new independent gaming chipset dubbed Red Core No. 1. Based on the teaser the chip will process sound, light, vibration and touch inputs.

The new teasers also detailed the phone’s elaborate heat dissipation system via a teardown video as well as several new posters. Red Magic 7 will bring a multi-stage cooling system with a 20,000 RPM active cooling fan featuring enhanced air pressure and airflow with reduced noise compared to the outgoing Red Magic 6 series.

The phone will also house the largest-ever VC cooling plate covering a total area of 41,279mm² - 30% larger than its predecessor. In addition, nubia will offer a separate active cooling case. Red Magic 7 will also be the first gaming phone with an under-display camera but we did not get details if all versions will come with the fancy new UD cam nor what resolution the image sensor is.
