Redmagic's new 9S Pro phone: A powerhouse for mobile gaming?
Redmagic has unveiled its latest flagship, the 9S Pro, in China, with an international launch slated for July 16th. This high-performance device packs impressive specs, including the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, UFS 4.0 storage, and LPDDR5X RAM. Configurations range up to a substantial 24GB RAM + 1TB storage.
We've previously reviewed several Redmagic devices, and a full review of the 9S Pro is coming soon. Stay tuned!
Powerhouse potential, but game library limitations?
A potential concern with the 9S Pro's immense power is the availability of games that can fully utilize its capabilities. 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, including titles from MiHoYo and high-fidelity games such as Call of Duty Warzone Mobile. Given its expected high price point (potentially around £500), this might not justify the purchase for some gamers.
