A live photo of the Nubia Red Magic 5G was uploaded by GameBench ahead of its expected launch in March or April 2020. The website claims that the phone is a pre-release unit provided by Nubia for testing.
From the photo, Red Magic 5G differs from its predecessor in terms of design and layout. For starters, it features an X-shaped pattern on its back panel with a red to blue gradient colour scheme going from left to right. Besides that, in the center is a vertical strip that houses its triple camera setup, as well as the phone’s name and logo which appears to light up.
On its left side is a red button, an air vent and a pogo connector. Furthermore, Gizmochina reports that images of the Red Magic 5G have recently appeared on China’s TENAA website, which gives us more insight to phone’s design.
