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

The REDMAGIC DAO 150W GaN Charger is a substantial accessory, but its impressive capabilities justify its size. This charger easily lives up to its claim of charging all your gaming devices—and then some.

Sporting a stylish transparent design with attractive colored lighting, this large charger is a welcome addition to any gamer's arsenal. Its eye-catching, yet sophisticated look is far from tacky and perfectly complements its target audience. Simply put: it's cool.

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

The accompanying REDMAGIC Goper app enhances the user experience, allowing customization of the LCD display and colored lights. More importantly, it displays the power output for each connected device.

The detachable adapter is a key feature, transforming the DAO 150W GaN into a convenient desktop charger. This flexibility makes it ideal for both home and on-the-go use.

Performance was equally impressive. Charging our smartphone via USB-C resulted in approximately a 30% battery increase in just 15 minutes. Even with multiple ports in use, the charger remained remarkably cool.

Despite its premium price, the REDMAGIC DAO 150W GaN Charger is a worthwhile investment for mobile gamers. It offers a stylish and practical solution to charging challenges encountered during extended gaming sessions. Find it on the official REDMAGIC site here.

We also tested the REDMAGIC VC Cooler 5 Pro, a smartphone liquid cooling solution.

This compact device magnetically attaches to your phone to prevent overheating. Given the tendency of many Android phones to overheat, this accessory is particularly useful. Its claim of a 35-degree temperature reduction proved accurate in our testing.

After an intense gaming session with maximum settings, the cooler transformed our overheated phone into something comfortably manageable.

While the concept of a box attached to your phone might seem cumbersome, the Cooler 5 Pro effectively performs its function. Its transparent design and colored lighting enhance the phone's aesthetics rather than detracting from them.

If phone overheating is a concern, the REDMAGIC VC Cooler 5 Pro is a worthwhile accessory, especially considering its competitive price. You can purchase it on the REDMAGIC site here.
