Turn It All the Way Up: REDMAGIC Nova Gaming Tablet Audio Review

 

What makes gaming truly immersive? The credit is most often given to the quality of the visuals, which includes the colors, the contrast, and the sharpness that keeps us glued to the screen. What we often overlook is the sheer power and importance of sound, the unspoken force that shapes every thrilling battle cry, quiet dialogue, and the ambience that breathes life into the game.

 

The REDMAGIC Nova Gaming Tablet is serious about this often-underestimated element, boasting advanced quad stereo speakers powered by DTS:X Ultra. From the moment you power it up, the tablet’s audio setup transforms your gameplay into an experience that’s nothing short of immersive. In this review, we’ll explore what reviewers and tech enthusiasts have to say about what makes the Nova’s audio system a standout feature, showing that it’s more than just a sound system, but a key part of the action. 


Built for a Balanced and Ambient Sound 

 

The REDMAGIC Nova Gaming Tablet is equipped with four speakers, strategically placed in pairs on each of the tablet's shorter sides. This configuration creates a balanced stereo effect that maintains clarity and richness whether you’re holding the tablet horizontally or vertically. This thoughtful layout ensures that sound is evenly distributed, providing a wider soundstage than traditional single or dual-speaker tablets. 

 

GSM Arena awarded the REDMAGIC Nova Gaming Tablet a “Very Good” mark for loudness, scoring it better than the Apple iPad Pro 11 and highlighting how well it performs in noisy environments.

When it comes to filling a small room, the tablet’s speakers are up to the task, delivering clear, undistorted sound even at higher volumes. With a maximum volume of around 89.4 dB, as recorded by PCMag, this tablet has the power to satisfy both solo gamers and small groups watching or gaming together. 


Deep Bass, Rich Vocals 

 

The four speaker setup of the REDMAGIC Nova Gaming Tablet goes beyond just loudness; it provides depth and clarity that make a difference in high-stakes gaming and media streaming. The DTS-X Ultra 3D sound, enabled by default, enhances sound depth, offering a sense of spatial immersion that makes you feel part of the action.The bass is notably rich, giving weight to low-frequency sounds and enhancing the impact of sound effects, music, and gaming ambiance. This depth is especially noticeable in action-packed games, where explosions and other effects feel realistic and engaging. 

 

The audio is described as being “nicely deep,” with bass that provides body to the sound profile without overwhelming other elements. The REDMAGIC Nova Gaming Tablet also delivers rich vocals with clear mid-range performance that keeps dialogue crisp and audible, ideal for both gaming and media consumption. The tablet does an excellent job with standard bass frequencies, which adds warmth and fullness, while higher frequencies, though slightly less prominent, still perform well enough to maintain an overall balanced sound.

DTS-X Ultra 3D sound technology is one of the standout features of the REDMAGIC Nova’s audio system. It provides a virtual surround-sound effect that brings out the positional cues essential for an immersive gaming experience. This 3D effect can give gamers an edge by helping them detect directional audio cues, like footsteps or distant gunfire, enhancing both engagement and tactical awareness.

 

Notably, while the DTS-X Ultra feature is optional, reviewers like those at PCMag suggest keeping it turned on, as it adds fullness and depth to the audio. When DTS-X is deactivated, the sound can become thinner, missing some of the richness that defines the Nova’s audio character. This feature adds versatility, allowing users to customize their audio experience based on their preferences and battery needs.

 

Loud Enough for Every Scene

The Typical Tech Lad review of the tablet notes that beyond gaming, the REDMAGIC Nova Gaming Tablet’s audio system performs well with a range of media, making it a capable device for streaming music, movies, and podcasts. Its balanced output makes it suitable for more than just gaming, as it fills small spaces effectively with clear and dynamic sound.

 

The reviewer tested the audio system with the popular TV show Rick and Morty, amongst other things, showcasing the Nova’s capability to handle multiple frequencies well, keeping vocals, instruments, and bass balanced. Even if some ultra-low bass tones are out of reach, the overall depth ensures that most genres sound rich and engaging. And for action movie scenes, the 3D effect adds that extra layer of immersion that enhances everything from soundtracks to special effects.

 

A Few Considerations: Portability and Headphone Options

 

While the REDMAGIC Nova Gaming Tablet delivers powerful audio, users who prefer private listening may wish they had access to a 3.5mm headphone jack, which is not included in this model as noted in the PCMag review. For gamers who want to connect wired headphones, a USB-C adapter is an option, but Bluetooth users will enjoy high-quality, low-latency sound with wireless headphones, thanks to the tablet’s strong Bluetooth support.

 

The lack of a traditional headphone jack aside, the REDMAGIC Nova’s portability and powerful sound system make it an excellent choice for gamers and media enthusiasts looking for a rich audio experience on the go.


Turn It Up, Anywhere

 

With its powerful quad-speaker setup and DTS-X Ultra 3D surround sound, the REDMAGIC Nova Gaming Tablet has redefined mobile audio, delivering rich, immersive sound that goes beyond what most expect from a tablet. Every game, movie, and track comes alive with depth, clarity, and balance, as reported by a handful of reviewers. Whether gaming solo or streaming with friends, the REDMAGIC Nova Gaming Tablet delivers audio that transforms any space into a personal theater, capturing every detail and amplifying the thrill.
