The REDMAGIC Astra 2 Is On The Way, Get It First With The Early Bird Voucher Scheme

The sequel to REDMAGIC’s high spec gaming tablet, the Astra, is on its way very soon. You can find our review right here too.

The Astra 2 has even shinier specs, and if you’re eager to get your hands on one, there’s something you need to know about.

If you’re familiar with REDMAGIC launches, then you’ll know the oncoming launch date means the Early Bird Voucher offer is coming back. 

Don’t know what the Early Bird offer is? Then let us explain. The Early Bird Voucher scheme is something that rolls around a little before REDMAGIC launches a new device. It’s a way for you to spend just £1 (or $ or €) to reap the following benefits:

• Early Bird Access, allowing you to order your Astra 2 24 hours before it goes on sale to the general public.
• £30 (or dollars, or Euros) off the sale price. 
• 80W Fast Charger.
• Exclusive REDMAGIC Keychain.

How Does It Work?

So how do you get one? Vouchers go on sale on August 10th, at £1/$/€ each. If you pick one up from the official REDMAGIC website before July 28th, you can join the Early Bird Access period.
