REVIEW

but it does look a little dated compared to the suite
of bezel-less smartphones available in 2019. The
only saving grace is that the forehead and chin of
the smartphone house front-facing stereo speakers

blocking audio output.

Premium internals without the price tag
Inside the Red Magic 3, you’ll find a Snapdragon 855
chipset and an Adreno 640 GPU. But while that’s
standard across all variants, the amount of storage and
RAM depends on the amount you want to pay. You’ve
got 8GB and 128GB or 12GB and 256GB to choose
from, with a price difference of £110. The 12GB option
does look tempting, but we doubt that the average
gamer would notice the difference in performance.
