Mobile gaming is hotter than ever, but even the most powerful smartphones can throttle performance when the action heats up. Red Magic, a brand known for its gaming-focused devices, aims to solve this problem with its latest innovation: the Cooler 5 Pro. This advanced accessory promises to keep phones frosty during extended gaming sessions, maintaining peak performance and ensuring a smoother, more enjoyable experience for players on any platform.
Flexible Connection, Maximum Compatibility
One of the Cooler 5 Pro’s most compelling features is its flexibility. Designed to work with virtually any modern smartphone, it boasts MagSafe magnetic attachment for users of compatible devices. But for those on Android or older-model iPhones, fret not! An included universal back clip ensures a secure connection regardless of your phone’s case or design. This commitment to cross-platform compatibility is sure to be appreciated, especially in an increasingly diverse smartphone market.
Chill Out While Gaming with AI and Liquid Cooling
The Red Magic Cooler 5 Pro isn’t just about convenience; it promises some serious cooling chops. Claims of dropping phone temperature by up to 35°C, potentially reaching sub-zero levels, are impressive. Add in AI-powered thermal management (available via an Android app), and it seems like this device could dramatically reduce lag and frame drops caused by overheating. Sadly, this intelligent control feature isn’t an option for iPhone users, leaving them with a less automated experience.
Despite its impressive cooling promises, don’t expect the Cooler 5 Pro to replace proper ventilation for your phone during extended sessions. It works best as a supplemental tool alongside good air circulation and avoiding direct sunlight.
Power, Noise, and the Need for Plugs
The Cooler 5 Pro packs a powerful 7-blade fan spinning up to 5500 rpm, generating the airflow necessary for its dramatic cooling claims. Thankfully, it boasts surprisingly low noise output – just 35 dB even at full speed. This translates to a hum that won’t drown out your game audio or distract those around you. Additionally, its 3D VC liquid cooling plate, at a generous 3060 sq.mm in size, maximizes the heat transfer surface for better results.
One potential downside is the lack of an onboard battery. The Cooler 5 Pro needs to be tethered to a power source, either by plugging into your phone directly or using an external power bank. This might be slightly inconvenient for some users, limiting mobility compared to devices with built-in batteries.
Pricing, Availability, and Imagining Its Potential
The Red Magic Cooler 5 Pro will hit global markets where Red Magic operates on April 15th, starting at €59 without the back clip or €64 with it.
