Reviewing the REDMAGIC Astra 2, the best gaming tablet for 2026 with significant upgrades vs the original tab. I've been testing the REDMAGIC Astra 2 for a couple of weeks with Wuthering Waves and Call of Duty Mobile and here's my final verdict! Plus a run-down of how it compares vs the first tablet.

You've got all of the usual updates you'd expect, such as a performance boost. However, the REDMAGIC Astra 2 also sports an improved cooling system. Gone is the old fan, replaced with a liquid cooling setup similar to those gamer phones. How much difference does this actually make?

This gaming tablet also has an upgraded screen, but what's changed Vs the original? And is the battery life even better on the REDMAGIC Astra 2?
