For gadget enthusiasts, there are many products where you know the specs but still want to get your hands on the real thing. Gaming gadgets, in particular, offer an appeal that can only be truly understood by experiencing them firsthand, such as key feel, fit, and texture.

That's why at ASCII's event, "TOKYO Gaming-PC STREET 9 in LIFORK AKIHABARA II," held on Saturday, October 10th, we will be showcasing a wide array of highly anticipated gaming gadgets this autumn. You'll be able to experience products recommended by our editorial team firsthand.

In this article, from the gaming gadgets on display, we will introduce the gaming smartphone "REDMAGIC 11S Pro."

A Smartphone with Liquid + Air Cooling System? It Gets Seriously "Cool"!

The nubia "REDMAGIC 11S Pro" is a gaming smartphone focused on cooling performance, equipped with both liquid cooling and powerful air fans.

It achieves a flat, punch-hole-free display thanks to an under-display camera, prioritizing immersion in games. Equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, it also boasts a full suite of gaming-specific features.

Point ①: Cooling Mechanism Featuring Liquid Cooling and Powerful Air Fans Its biggest feature, without a doubt, is the inclusion of a liquid cooling mechanism, which is unusual for a smartphone. Furthermore, it also features powerful air fans, combining these two cooling systems. For users who prioritize cooling performance during gameplay, this is a point not to be missed.

Point ②: Flat, Punch-Hole-Free Screen with Under-Display Camera By placing the front camera under the display, it achieves a flat, punch-hole-free screen. With fewer obstructions on the game screen, it enhances immersion during play. We highly recommend experiencing the feeling of enjoying games across the entire display!

Point ③: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 and Rich Gaming Features The high performance delivered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC provides the power to handle a wide range of game apps. Starting at ¥149,800, it's not exactly cheap, but considering the recent surge in smartphone prices and the high performance of this model, it's a price you'll be satisfied with once you use it!

Head to Akihabara on Saturday, October 10th! Come and Experience the nubia "REDMAGIC 11S Pro" for Yourself!

Gaming gadgets have aspects like button feel, dial weight, and texture that simply cannot be understood from photos or specs alone.

That's why at this event, we are prioritizing creating a space where you can directly experience a large number of highly anticipated gaming gadgets that you'll want to get your hands on this autumn, and that we "absolutely want you to touch!"

We've gathered only the gaming gadgets that you'll "definitely want to touch and check out" this autumn, so please take this opportunity to experience them.

Our editorial staff will also be at the venue, so please feel free to ask us if you have any questions.

We look forward to seeing you at LIFORK Akihabara II on October 10th!

At the venue, you can actually experience various devices such as keyboards, mice, and headsets.
