nubia’s gaming division is now accepting
pre-orders for the Red Magic 5G Hot Rod Red – this edition brings a classic red
and yellow color scheme and aims to do some charity as well. 1% of the money
from the first 1,000 pre-orders will be donated to Child’s Play, a charity that
donates toys and games to children’s hospitals around the world.
Instead of classic “lobster claws” flames,
this Hot Rot Red phone features the familiar stylized X, the motif found on all
Red Magic phones. Honestly, it reminds us more of Iron Man than a hot rod, but
it’s still a neat color combo.
The pre-order period ends on June 8 at
12:00pm UTC. Besides the charitable donation, those who participate in the
pre-order will have a chance to win one of sixty accessories for the Red Magic
5G. There are 5x Magic Adapter (a docking station), 5x Pro handle (add-on with
analog stick and several buttons) and 50x protective cases up for grabs. Note
that you have to post on Facebook or retweet on Twitter to be eligible to win.
The prices for the Hot Rot Red edition are
the same as the Eclipse Black: US$ 580, € 580, £ 540. Head over to RedMagic.gg if
you want one.
