RedMagic launches 9S Pro gaming smartphone in China, international version on the way soon

Redmagic's powerful 9S Pro phone is launching internationally on July 16th! This high-end device, already released in China, packs a punch with features like the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, UFS 4.0, and LPDDR5X RAM. Four variations are available, offering up to 24GB of RAM and a massive 1TB of storage.

We've reviewed many Redmagic devices before, and a full review of the 9S Pro is coming soon. Stay tuned!

Powerful Hardware, Game Library Potential?

The 9S Pro’s impressive specs raise a question: will the available mobile game library fully utilize its capabilities? While Apple devices boast recent next-gen titles like Resident Evil 7 and Assassin's Creed Mirage, the 9S Pro will likely focus on existing mobile games, such as MiHoYo's titles or high-fidelity games like Call of Duty Warzone Mobile. At a potential price point of £500 or more (comparable to the 9 Pro), this might not be enough to entice all gamers.
