Nubia Red Magic Astra 2
Key specs
Critic consensus
“If you want a powerful compact tablet, better yet, a comfy device for gaming on the go - this is it. The Astra 2 has the guts to handle everything and has the screen to show it beautifully.”
“The RedMagic Astra 2 is a high-performance gaming tablet with a delightful display, a comfortably compact design, and enough power to keep you engaged for long playing sessions, all of which make it a potential upgrade if you want more than just a basic slate.”
“The RedMagic Astra 2 is just about the fastest Android tablet in the game, with unmatched sustained performance and a similarly fluid OLED display. It's not the classiest customer on the market, and it's a shame to see it receive such a hefty price bump over its predecessor. For dedicated gamers looking for a tablet, however, it's a uniquely equipped proposition.”
“Redmagic didn't change much with the Astra 2, and the tablet retains the same great 9.06-inch OLED panel as last year. The size of the tablet is just right, and that makes it easy to use anywhere. The internals are the best you can get on any tablet, the dedicated liquid cooling system ensures the tablet doesn't overheat even with sustained gaming, and the battery lasts all day. Last year's Astra was my most-used Android tablet last year, and the Astra 2 is taking over that mantle in 2026.”
