RedMagic's 9S Pro Gaming Powerhouse Debuts in China, Global Launch Imminent

Redmagic's new 9S Pro phone is launching internationally on July 16th, following its China release. This powerhouse device features the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, UFS 4.0, and LPDDR5X RAM, available in four configurations with up to 24GB of RAM and 1TB of storage.

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

Powerful, but will it handle the latest games?

A potential concern is game compatibility. While boasting impressive specs, it remains to be seen which next-gen mobile titles the 9S Pro can smoothly handle. Unlike Apple's devices, which feature recent AAA ports like Resident Evil 7 and Assassin's Creed Mirage, the 9S Pro will likely focus on existing mobile games, including titles from MiHoYo and high-fidelity games like Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile. At a potential price point around £500, this might not be enough to convince some gamers.
