Hardcore mobile gamers, listen up! Two new devices from Red Magic has come out. Check out the new Red Magic 9S Pro and 9S Pro Plus.
The new Red Magic 9S Pro and 9S Pro Plus are powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Leading Version, which is essentially the same to the flagship we already know, but has been overclocked so the prime CPU core runs on 3.4GHz while the GPU is at 1GHz.

Red Magic managed to achieve this by having a beefy ICE 13.5 cooling system that uses a dedicated cooling fan that spins at 22,000rpm and a large 10,182mm² vaper chamber. All together, it reduces the chipset temps by up to 19.5°C versus the 18°C of the previous ICE 13 solution.
The duo also share the same 6.8-inch OLED screens with sharp corners, a 2.5K resolution, smooth 120Hz refresh rate, and a 16-megapixel under-display selfie camera. It also got a 2,000Hz touch sampling rate for extra touch sensitivity when playing games.

Also onboard are the 520Hz shoulder triggers, which have been updated to have backlighting. Audio is provided by the stereo speaker setup with DTS: X Ultra.
The rear cameras are the same as before. We still have a 50-megapixel 1/1.56-inch GN5 sensor with optical image stabilization and a 50-megapixel JN1 shooter with an ultra-wide lens.

A bunch of AI features are also included like Smart Navigator, AI Trigger, writing assistant, call summaries, and more.
Now, you might be wondering what are the difference between the two. Well, the Red Magic 9S Pro enjoys a bigger 6,500mAh battery than the Red Maigc 9S Pro Plus’s 5,500mAh capacity, but has a slower 80W charging than the former’s 165W.

Another key difference is the RAM and storage configurations. The Red Magic 9S Pro is available in 12GB/256GB and 12GB/512GB for a price of CNY3,799 (~Php30,600) and CNY5,199 (~Php41,800), respectively. That’s for the Dark/White Knight color. The Transparent models will retail for CNY4,999 (~Php40,200) and CNY5,399 (~Php43,500), respectively.
Meanwhile, the Red Magic 9S Pro Plus is available in 16GB/512GB/Dark/White Knight for CNY5,799 (~Php46,700), 16GB/512GB/Transparent for CNY5,999 (~Php48,300), and 24GB/1TB/Special Edition for CNY6,999 (~Php56,300). They are now listed in China while international relese details are yet to be known.
