The upcoming RedMagic Tablet 3 Pro blurs the line between tablets and smartphones when it comes to size. In fact, this is the industry's first small tablet with the fastest charging speed. It's also the industry's first OLED gaming tablet, at least according to RedMagic. But what makes the Tablet 3 Pro stand out is its raw power.
