Nubia Red Magic, the smartphone that is aimed at mobile gamers, is all set to debut in India today. The smartphone was unveiled by the Chinese company back in April in 6GB RAM/ 64GB storage and 8GB RAM/ 128GB storage options. Nubia has officially confirmed the debut of the Red Magic in the Indian market through a teaser posted by the Nubia India Twitter account. The new model could compete against the likes of the Huawei Mate 20 Pro and OnePlus 6T.

Confirming the launch date of the Nubia Red Magic in India, the Nubia India Twitter account in a tweet posted on Monday said, “Enough is enough, it’s time for a new species to take over. It’s time for a complete annihilation.” The tweet carried hashtag #BeliveinMagic and included an image that shows the company’s Red Magic brand and reads, “03 days to go…”

Nubia is initially set to bring the Red Magic smartphone to India that was launched in China back in April. However, the company could expand its presence in the Indian smartphone market by launching the 10GB RAM-featuring Nubia Red Magic Mars that debuted in China late last month after being in a crowdfunding campaign as the Red Magic 2.

India price and availability details of the Nubia Red Magic are yet to be revealed formally. Nevertheless, Gadgets 360 previously reported that the handset is expected to arrive at a price less than Rs. 30,000. The model was initially planned to arrive in the country around the Diwali season.

To recall, the Nubia Red Magic price in China starts at CNY 2,499 (roughly Rs. 25,800) for the 6GB RAM/ 64GB storage variant, while its 8GB RAM/ 128GB storage model is available at CNY 2,999 (roughly Rs. 31,000). The phone also got a price tag of EUR 450 (roughly Rs. 36,400) in European markets at the IFA show earlier this year.
