REDMAGIC Nova: Essential Gaming Tablet Reviewed

Author : Patrick May 18,2025

We’ve covered a fair few REDMAGIC products on Droid Gamers, most notably the REDMAGIC 9 Pro, which we dubbed the “best gaming mobile around.” It’s no surprise then that we’re now declaring the REDMAGIC Nova as the best gaming tablet on the market. Let’s dive into why the Nova stands out with five compelling reasons.

Look and Feel

The REDMAGIC Nova is a testament to thoughtful design, crafted with gamers in mind. It strikes the perfect balance between durability and comfort, avoiding the extremes of being too lightweight and flimsy or too heavy and cumbersome for extended use. Its futuristic aesthetic is highlighted by a semi-transparent panel that spans the rear, complemented by an RGB-illuminated REDMAGIC logo and an RGB fan, adding to its impressive visual appeal. During our testing, the tablet endured several minor impacts without any signs of damage, showcasing its robust build alongside its stylish design.

Unlimited Power

While not truly unlimited, the Nova packs a punch with its Snapdragon 8 Gen. 3 processor and DTS-X audio system, featuring a four-speaker setup. This combination ensures smooth gameplay across almost any title, making the Nova a powerhouse in the tablet gaming arena.

Solid Battery Life

Despite its high-performance processor, the REDMAGIC Nova boasts impressive battery life, offering 8-10 hours of gaming on a full charge. Although there is some battery drain during standby, the tablet handles even the most demanding games without significant power issues.

Great For Gaming

Our extensive testing with various games revealed no slowdown or lag, thanks to the Nova’s responsive touchscreen and fast web connectivity. Whether playing casual or hardcore titles, the Nova excels, particularly in competitive online games. The larger, crisp screen and superior sound quality gave us a distinct advantage over smartphone users, enhancing our gaming experience with every detail.

Gamer Friendly Features

The Nova includes unique features that enhance the gaming experience, accessible by swiping from the screen's edges. These include overclocked performance modes, notification blocking, network prioritization, quick messaging, and brightness locking. Additionally, the ability to resize the game screen and set up automatic triggers offers a potential edge, though we used these sparingly to maintain fair play.

So, is it worth it?

Absolutely. For gamers seeking the ultimate tablet experience, the REDMAGIC Nova is unparalleled. While minor issues exist, they are overshadowed by the device's exceptional features and performance. You can purchase the Nova directly from the REDMAGIC site by clicking here.

Well worth it

A must-have for anyone in search of the perfect gaming tablet. That’s all that needs to be said.
