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

Redmagic's 9S Pro: A Powerful New Mobile Gaming Phone

Redmagic has unveiled its latest smartphone, the 9S Pro, in China, with an international launch slated for July 16th. This high-powered device features the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, coupled with UFS 4.0 and LPDDR5X RAM, and comes in four configurations with up to 24GB of RAM and 1TB of storage.

We've previously reviewed several Redmagic products, and a full review of the 9S Pro is forthcoming.

Powerhouse Potential, Game Library Considerations

A potential concern with the 9S Pro's impressive specs is its game compatibility. 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 catalog and high-fidelity titles like Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile. Considering a potential price point comparable to the 9 Pro (around £500), this might not be a sufficient selling point for all gamers.
