    This doesn't make sense at all. They have put a lot of resources into super cooling system to squeeze 200k more antutu. Why don't they save those costs and upgrade the chip to 8 elite instead?

            If it's a gaming tablet why doesn't it come with a controller that attaches to the sides of the tablet??

            It's stupid that this tablet doesn't feel different in any way from any other tablet, apart from having the "gaming" moniker on it.

            Nubia really missed an opportunity with this one.

                    actually i liked ips in tablet rarher than amoled..durable display rather than degrading oled after few years..and screen display can be emulated to run in lower resolution still sharper using app but with amoled its blurry mess. colour temperature is more uniform using ips no matter what people say in oled white is rainbowy than ips..and no green line issue thats the best

                      This is has been repeated ad nauseum, but they should've went with OLED.

                      Mind you, I've seen quality IPS LCD panels before, however this is not one of them.

                      1175:1 contrast ratio is poor for a glossy IPS panel. 517 nits is barely enough for gaming in daylight indoors.

                      I agree with GSMarena's verdict, this is more like a productivity / general-purpose tablet.

                        @GSMArena Team,

                        May I know how did you conduct "Call test" on this Wi-Fi-only tablet? In Battery Test 2.0 test suite, call test is being made using VoLTE, right? How is this possible on a device with NO cellular capabilities?

                        Thanks.

                          Anonymous, 07 Nov 2024I don't think there exist more performance for 500 buc... moreLCDs are notoriously bad at showing HDR content so it's not that big of a deal - there's the OnePlus Pad 2 as well.

                            This and Xiaomi pad 6 seems to have the same screen size and pixel density... Interestingly maybe could this be the same OEM panel? If yes it's likely to have good color accuracy as with pad 6.

                            And seriously 14.4:9 Aspect ratio??
                            How about using an industry standard and calling it the usual way of 16:10 as it would help with clarity for the readers?

                              Why cripple the device without mobile connectivity? The 3d graphics is less than powerful than the redmagic 9s Pro which virtually does not throttle the SD 8 Gen 3. I saw a 9s Pro that is priced just above this tablet.

                                Hemedans, 07 Nov 2024Limit is not just 99Wh, its density too. 2 gram of lithium ... moreOh I didn't know this

                                  I don't think there exist more performance for 500 bucks.
                                  Screen not being HDR is kinda puzzling tho..even some low midrange phones have HDR screens now

                                    The Nubia Red Magic Nova Tablet opens up an intriguing new market of gaming-focused tablets, and it’s a hugely capable runner at an impressively low price. Some work is still needed on the way the device is packaged and presented to gamers, and we have some minor stability concerns, but this is a great-value performance-focused tablet overall.Not content with all but cornering the market in affordable gaming phones, Nubia has now turned its attention to addressing an even more niche market: that of the gaming tablet.
