RedMagic’s upcoming Gaming Tablet 5 Pro is launching first in China and is set to reach international markets under a different name. Multiple outlets report that RedMagic introduces the tablet in China on June 30, with global availability confirmed under the “RedMagic Astra 2” branding. GSMArena, NDTV, and Digital Trends all describe the global variant as a rebranded version intended to keep broadly similar specifications to the China model, though RedMagic has not consistently announced a specific global launch date across all reporting.
The Chinese model’s key hardware details are described by NDTV and Digital Trends, including a 9.06-inch OLED display with a 185Hz refresh rate. GSMArena adds that the panel includes a 2.4K resolution, and it reports a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset. Cooling is a major focus: NDTV references RGB liquid cooling, while Digital Trends highlights active liquid cooling. Additional features mentioned include a redesigned gaming-focused chassis, dual USB-C ports, and other components such as a Synaptics S3930 touch controller (NDTV). Pre-reservations in China are also reported ahead of the June 30 debut.
