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 more than justify its size. Housed in a stylish, transparent casing with attractive colored lighting, this charger is a head-turner, perfectly suited to the gamer aesthetic. Its appearance is both eye-catching and sophisticated.

Featuring DC, USB-C, and USB-A ports, it caters to a wide range of devices. 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 allows customization of the LCD display and lighting, and also provides power output readings for each connected device. The detachable adapter adds versatility, transforming the charger into a convenient desktop solution for home use.

Performance testing was equally impressive. Our smartphone's battery gained approximately 30% charge in just 15 minutes via the USB-C port, without any 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 offers a stylish and practical solution to charging needs, especially during extended gaming sessions. Find it on the official REDMAGIC site here.

We also reviewed the REDMAGIC VC Cooler 5 Pro, a liquid cooling system for smartphones. This magnetically attached device effectively combats overheating, a common issue with many Android phones, particularly during intense gaming sessions. The cooler boasts a claimed 35-degree temperature reduction, a claim we found to be accurate.

After a demanding gaming session with maximum settings, the cooler significantly reduced our phone's temperature, making it comfortable to hold. While the concept of a box attached to your phone might seem bulky, its effectiveness and attractive, transparent design with colored lighting actually enhance the phone's appearance.

If overheating is a concern, the REDMAGIC VC Cooler 5 Pro, especially at its competitive price point, is a highly recommended accessory. Find it on the REDMAGIC site here.
