RedMagic 9S Pro
RedMagic's mid-2024 gaming phone is a 9 Pro refresh with an overclocked Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Leading Version chip, a 6.8-inch 120Hz AMOLED display, a built-in cooling fan and a 6,500mAh battery with 80W wired charging. It launched at $649, but the cameras are basic and there is no IP rating or wireless charging.
Pros
- Overclocked Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Leading Version chip ran demanding games smoothly in review testing
- Built-in 22,000 RPM cooling fan helps keep performance steady during long gaming sessions
- 6,500mAh battery gave about two days of use, and 80W charging took a flat battery to full in about 43 minutes in review testing
- Keeps a 3.5mm headphone jack alongside dual stereo speakers
- Under-display selfie camera gives an uninterrupted 6.8-inch 120Hz screen with up to 2,000Hz touch sampling
Cons
- Cameras are unimpressive, and the under-display selfie camera is soft in review testing
- No IP rating because the cooling fan needs open vents, and no wireless charging
- 1,600-nit peak brightness and 120Hz refresh rate trail the 10 series' 2,000 nits and 144Hz
- Essentially a mid-cycle refresh of the 9 Pro, with only a small speed gain in review testing
