Pocket Powerhouse: Gaming Phone's Light Show
3 Nov
Summary
- New gaming smartphone features liquid cooling with colorful lights.
- Internal lights and illuminated rings add flashy effects to the device.
- Other brands also incorporate light strips into their latest smartphones.
The RedMagic 12 Pro gaming smartphone has been launched, featuring a striking aesthetic heavily inspired by PC gaming hardware. It incorporates a transparent liquid cooling system with visible coolant, enhanced by bright, colorful lighting. This feature, along with illuminated rings on the camera module and light strips on the shoulder buttons, can be customized to react to app openings and incoming calls.
This emphasis on RGB lighting is not unique to RedMagic. Competitors like the Infinix GT 50 Pro and iQOO 15 Ultra have also introduced smartphones with prominent light strips and illuminated elements. While RGB has long been a staple in PC gaming components from brands like Corsair and MSI, its application on portable devices like smartphones raises questions due to their varied usage contexts, from boardrooms to public transit.
