RedMagic Releases Gaming Monster 9S Pro

Redmagic's new 9S Pro phone has just launched in China, with an international release slated for July 16th. This powerhouse device packs impressive specs, including the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, UFS 4.0, and LPDDR5X RAM. It's available in four configurations, with the top model boasting 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 power raises a question: will the available mobile game library fully utilize its capabilities? While Apple devices have secured recent next-gen titles like Resident Evil 7 and Assassin's Creed Mirage, the 9S Pro will likely initially focus on existing mobile games, such as those from MiHoYo, and high-fidelity titles like Call of Duty Warzone Mobile. Given its anticipated higher-end price (around £500), this might not be enough to satisfy all potential buyers.
