The tiny Android tablet market is getting its second wave, with the Redmagic Astra sequel officially set to launch next week.
Kicked off by the Lenovo Legion Tab going worldwide, the rise of the compact Android tablet has delivered a variety of options for users. One of our favorites was the Redmagic Astra, a 9-inch tablet with an OLED display and fingerprint sensor, two things Lenovo’s Legion Tab still lacks even in its Gen 5 release.
Redmagic is now teasing what will likely launch as Redmagic Astra 2 in global markets. The “Gaming Tablet 5 Pro” has been in the works for months at this point.
Redmagic hasn’t confirmed everything just yet, but a post on Weibo reveals a June 30 launch date and the updated design of the tablet. The images also confirm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 under the hood, and the post itself confirms a liquid cooling system.
The tablet is rumored to have a 9-inch, 200Hz OLED display.
It’s shaping up quite nicely as a Lenovo Legion Tab competitor, but pricing and the global release date have yet to be confirmed.
