The ultimate gaming phone arrives in the US on October 16, it's cheaper than expected

Nubia is not a popular brand in the United States, but its smartphones are insanely cheap and quite impressive on paper. To set its devices apart from other flagships, Nubia is marketing its high-end products as gaming smartphones.

The most recent one, Nubia Red Magic 3S is coming to the United States on October 16 and it's cheaper than anyone would have expected. Starting at just $479, the Red Magic 3S is already available for pre-order and Nubia has prepared some nice incentives for customers.

One of the incentives is a 3S Reward Card, which can be bought for $100 and acts as a gift card towards your future purchase of the Red Magic 3S. Rewards are given to the first 100 buyers like the Pro Handle Gamepad, but 30% accessory discount codes will be offered as well.

The sequel to the original Red Magic 3 feels quite powerful on paper thanks to the top-tier Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 Plus processor, coupled with up to 12GB RAM and up to 256GB storage. Since this is a gaming smartphone, it comes with active liquid-cooling with internal turbo fan and a huge 5,000 mAh battery.

Also, the flagship smartphone boasts a stunning 6.65-inch AMOLED display with a 90Hz refresh rate, as well as front-facing stereo speakers and DTS:X technology.

Keep in mind that the cheapest Nubia Red Magic 3S costs $479 and comes with 8GB RAM and 128GB storage, while the most expensive costs $600 and packs 12GB RAM and 256GB storage.
