After a few weeks of building anticipation, Nubia introduced RedMagic 9 Pro. This is the new generation of the popular family of gaming phones, which, as usual, first reached China, and a little later – the West.

Usually each generation has several versions, but what we have now is the RedMagic 9 Pro. This is not surprising because it is one of the first to have SoC Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 has a camera module but without a camera module for a seamless design.

It is true that it is powerful, but there is also effort in the design.

We always start talking about design but this time we’ll change the order because in a gaming mobile of course the most important thing is both power and panel. And in both cases RedMagic 9 Pro works.

As we said, It is one of the first phones with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, just like Xiaomi 14. It’s at the forefront of power in Android, at least until we see how the Dimensity 9300 performs, and it has a whopping 24GB of LPDDR5X RAM. It now has several versions and we find models with 8, 12 and 16 GB.

The Pro model has a 6,500 mAh battery with 80 W charging The Pro+ has 5,550mAh with 165W charging, an impressive figure, and it features the RedCore R2 Pro Game Chip, a co-processor that will be responsible for recognizing scenes in-game to deliver more precise vibration and sound effects, among other improvements. It’s about the game mode.

And if we go to the screen, they both have panels 6.8-inch OLED BOE Q9+ with 2,480 x 1,116-inch resolutionflat edges, 120 Hz refresh rate, and sampling from 960 to 2,000 Hz. Also, peak brightness is 1,600 nits, and something Chinese manufacturers do very well is pushing PWM, 2,160 Hz on this model.

Now let’s move on to the design because there is fabric to cut. The first thing is obvious and is the extraordinary effort put into creating a mobile phone with a thickness of 8.9 millimeters. Manages to hide the cameras inside. These cameras consist of a 50 Mpx GN5 sensor with optical stabilization for the main camera, a 50 Mpx JN1 for wide-angle and a 2 Mpx auxiliary sensor.

There is no hole in the screen because once again they have chosen a 16 Mpx sensor underneath (we will see what results it will have in this new generation) and the mobile phone is basically a block with nothing protruding beyond the buttons on the side. .

Meanwhile, Has the usual touch pads that act as additional buttons on the right side there is a 520Hz sampling so that latency is minimal and it has a powerful delivery system, as well as a vibration system, a large vapor chamber and RGB lighting on the digital triggers.

Versions, price and release of RedMagic 9 Pro

Currently RedMagic 9 Pro is available in China and They will start selling on November 28th For RedMagic 9 Pro+, the price will start from 4,399 yuan (about 560 euros at the exchange rate) for the 8 + 256 GB version and 5,499 yuan (about 705 euros at the exchange rate) for the 16 + 256 GB version. The most expensive version with 24 GB RAM and 1 TB storage costs 6,999 yuan (about 897 euros at the exchange rate)

We will have to keep an eye on its arrival in other areas (expected for January 3, 2024) as there is a desire to try a mobile phone without a camera module again, and also in an effort to contain the power of Snapdragon 8 Generation 3.
