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, UFS 4.0 storage, and LPDDR5X RAM, available in four configurations with up to 24GB of RAM and 1TB of storage.

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

Powerhouse Potential, Game Library Considerations

A key question surrounding the 9S Pro is its game compatibility. While boasting impressive specs, it remains to be seen which upcoming, high-demand mobile games will fully utilize its capabilities. Apple's success in attracting titles like Resident Evil 7 and Assassin's Creed Mirage sets a high benchmark.

The 9S Pro will likely excel with existing mobile games, including MiHoYo's catalog and high-fidelity titles such as Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile. However, with an anticipated price point around the higher end of £500 (if comparable to the 9 Pro), this may not be enough to justify the purchase for all gamers.
