Hands On: REDMAGIC DAO 150W GaN Charger and VC Cooler 5 Pro

The REDMAGIC DAO 150W GaN Charger is a substantial, impressive charging accessory. Its robust design, complete with stylish colored lighting, belies its powerful capabilities. This isn't just a charger; it's a statement piece, perfectly suited for gamers.

Featuring DC, USB-C, and USB-A ports, it handles diverse charging needs. An LCD display provides real-time charging information for each port, a premium feature setting it apart from budget alternatives.

The accompanying REDMAGIC Goper app offers customization options for the LCD display and lighting, and usefully monitors power output to each connected device. The detachable adapter adds versatility, making it ideal for both home and mobile use.

Performance tests were equally impressive. Charging a smartphone via USB-C resulted in a roughly 30% battery increase in just 15 minutes, without any noticeable overheating, even with multiple ports in use.

Despite its premium price, the REDMAGIC DAO 150W GaN Charger is a worthwhile investment for mobile gamers. It's a stylish and practical solution for extended gaming sessions. Find it on the official REDMAGIC website.

We also reviewed the REDMAGIC VC Cooler 5 Pro, a magnetically attached liquid cooling system for smartphones.

This compact device effectively combats overheating, a common issue with many Android phones. Its claimed 35-degree cooling performance proved accurate in our testing. Following an intense gaming session with maximum settings, the cooler transformed an uncomfortably hot phone into one that was manageable to hold.

While attaching a device to your phone isn't ideal aesthetically, the VC Cooler 5 Pro's transparent design and colored lighting actually enhance the smartphone's appearance.

For users experiencing frequent phone overheating, this accessory is highly recommended, especially given its competitive price. Available on the REDMAGIC website.
