It can be said that Nubia's actions this year are quite frequent. At the beginning of the year, there were Red Devil E-sports mobile phones, in the middle of the year, there were Z18mini, and at the end of the year, there were Z18 and Now, the Red Devil Mars has come to us again. As the second generation game mobile phone in Nubia, what can be said about it?

Battery capacity: 3800mAh
Body size: 158 x 75 x 9.5mm
Selling points: game phones, touch buttons, and RGB lights
Price: 6+64 ¥ 2699; 8+128 RMB 3199; 10+256 will sell for ¥ 3999, and it will be officially sold on December 7. There are three color combinations: black, red and camouflage, of which camouflage can only be selected from the top, compared with Black Shark Helo（ The selling prices are ¥ 3199, ¥ 3499 and ¥ 4199 respectively ）Personally, I think the Red Devil Mars is still very fragrant, and it is also the cheapest 10GB memory mobile phone at present.
It's very shaped, and there are lights
In fact, in terms of appearance design, Red Devil Mars and First generation Red Devil There is not much difference. If you put two mobile phones together, it may be difficult to identify who is who at the first time. But if you look carefully, you can still find a difference.

（ On the top of the fuselage, there is a 3.5mm earphone hole, which is good ）
（ The speaker hole is placed at the bottom of the body, and the top earpiece will also make sound, thus forming a double speaker. The measured effect is OK ）
（ Red Devil Mars has added touch buttons at the upper and lower ends of the right side of the body, which are mainly used to simulate keys in the game. We will talk about this later ）
（ Compared with the first generation Red Devil, there are more texture designs at the top triangle ）
（ Slots are provided on the four sides of the back, which is officially said to increase the internal and external air convection heat transfer, and the heat dissipation effect will be better; There is also a Red Devil logo and a line of small English: Powered by Nubia ）
（ The middle one is RGB light band ）
There is a very long RGB dazzle light band in the middle. You can adjust its color, brightness and flicker mode in the system. Since it is RGB, you don't have to worry about finding your favorite color. There are several preset light effects in the settings, and the light strip can light up when calling or charging, or flash according to the current video sound. You can also customize the light effect, which can basically play with flowers.
screen
Red Devil Mars is equipped with a 6-inch LCD screen with a resolution of FHD+. From the log we have captured, the panel supplier is JDI, video mode， However, it may be due to the engineering machine. In the LOG, no information about other components was found.
Like the first generation of Red Devils, the forehead and chin of the screen are very wide, and users who want narrow borders may not particularly like it. But after all, Mars is a game phone, so I don't think this part has much influence. From the simple experience in the past two days, the screen looks good, but the default color temperature will be significantly cooler. If you feel uncomfortable, you can go to the settings to change it. Since I am a loyal supporter of LCD, I am satisfied with this screen.
Due to time constraints, professional instruments have not been used to test this screen. Please look forward to the following content for this part.
performance
The biggest criticism of the first generation Red Devil is the SoC it carries. After all, the Snapdragon 835 is not suitable for use in a location-based game mobile phone. But there is no need to worry about Red Devil Mars. It carries Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 SoC, with 6/8/10GB of memory and 64/128/256GB of storage. This one in my hand is an 8GB memory+128GB storage version.
Watch a run
（ Geekbench、 Entertainment rabbit and GFXBench ）
In a crowd of 845 machines, its score is at the upstream level, and there is no weakness. With the various heat dissipation bonuses on the Red Devil Mars, and the large body, I believe it will perform well in the game. In fact, 10GB is not very useful at present. For daily use and game playing, 8GB is enough.
When the power is 28%, connect the official charger. In the dead screen state, the charging power is above 15W, while the power of the bright screen hovers around 14W.
system
This system is also a highlight of Red Devil Mars, because it runs RedMagic OS based on Android P. Although with the addition of our own OS, we can no longer see the shadow of Android P, after all, the system is new enough, which is worthy of praise.
Positioning the game phone, so the system theme is also very hard core. Black and red match colors. Users who usually like to play on the phone should still like it. But after two days of use, I changed to a common theme, which makes my eyes more comfortable~
Various grounding functions will not be introduced one by one. RedMagic OS can still meet my various needs well, which is also a major advantage of domestic ROMs. It will not be as dull as the native Android system. It is also very useful for ordinary users.
Beating machine
Since it is a game phone, Red Devil Mars also has the appearance of a game phone. There is a game slider on the upper left side of the body. After dialing it, the system will open the "game space", where you can see the downloaded games, various game related adjustments, 4D switches, game time, etc. It looks very powerful.
（ Exclusive game keys ）
（ One click to open the game space ）
（ Mapping keys ）
Turn on Super Performance Mode and start playing Stimulation Battlefield. As mentioned above, there are two touch buttons on the side of Red Devil Mars. After the game is opened. You can choose to map it to different operations, for example, in the stimulation battlefield, L corresponds to fire, R corresponds to open sight.
（ It is very sensitive to operate ）
After playing a game, I found that this function is really easy to use. I feel a little bit like using the handle. In many scenes, I can always press the trigger faster than others. The whole operation is also very smooth The upper back touch operation is much easier to use.
Moreover, after the 4D shock is turned on, the linear motor of Red Devil Mars will give feedback to users according to the gunshot sound. It is similar to the handle vibration when playing the PS4. In addition, the feel of the linear motor is also very good, but it is unknown whether the battery can be held after playing for a long time~
Summary
In fact, I think Red Devil Mars is what the first generation of Red Devils should look like. It is equipped with one of the most high-end SoCs at present, side touch buttons, a linear motor with good experience, a maximum of 10GB of memory, etc. I think it is OK, especially when playing with touch buttons in stimulating battlefield, which can be said to be very useful.
At present, I can't find many weaknesses in it. As a game phone, I think Red Devil Mars is competent. One of the reasons I like it is to insist on using LCD screen. If I can change to mainstream CMOS（ For example, IMX363? ）, which is even better. Of course, users who buy games specially may not care much about taking photos.
As one of the few game phones on the market, Red Devil Mars can still stand out. Compared with Black Shark Helo, Red Devil will also have a higher sex ratio. If you are really crazy about the game, you have to hit several pesticides, eat chicken or crash 3 every day, and only have requirements for performance, then Red Devil Mars can consider, especially the price of its 6+64 version is also very popular. But if you just want to buy a domestic flagship normally, you should consider other products~
Some people may say that, considering the distance eight thousand one hundred and fifty The official debut of mobile phones is not far away. Is it worth buying the 845 flagship now? In fact, before you can really buy a flagship SoC phone with high cost performance, you still have to wait for Xiaomi's new product, which is usually in April, May or even June, so you don't need to consider too much.
