i was expecting this to be an $1800 usd phone at the LEAST. Yet on their website, the 12g ram/256 gb phone is $650 usd. The 16gb ram/512 gb version is $799. Add on a magnetic cooler fan and it's $60 more and if you want the fan to also have a clip, add $4.00. Dude. DUDE. I need this in my life.

Best looking smartphone in my opinion.

I know the camera isn’t the best but everyone, you have to understand that this phone was built purely for gaming not taking pictures. I absolutely love this phone and I play on it everyday and I love the screen and triggers and fan.

Brother at 11:38 rise is not the top performance mode. The top performance mode called Diablo and you enable it from the options that is located at the left side of the game mobi space menus when you are in game . When you scroll down at the left side options you will find the Diablo mode for maximum performance at the bottom.

The red magic 9 pro is the best gaming phone ive ever had even compared to my s23 ultra which has way better software but in gaming my red magic is in a league of its own. I was able to beat Mario Oddyseey, Pokemon Shining pearl, and play zelda TOTK at 60 fps due to my red magic which my tab s8 can't even run some of those games well unbelievable performance

I got the Redmagic 9 Pro earlier in the year and four odd months in I'm really happy with it (I basically never use selfie cams, so little trade off for me). The battery life and fast charging are just perfect for my use (regularly hit 12h SoT). You should demo some emulation, recent Turnip drivers update made a big difference for Switch gaming.

Photos look gorgeous and that charging speed is nuts. How you just blew by your 10+hr screen on time is wild too. That's insane battery life for a gaming phone!

[Atropos-pful]

As always great In-depth review, keep up the great job!!!

[androidfixer]

Why are you testing genshin impact you should test wuthering waves which is more graphically intensive and lags on my dimensity 9300

[KillahManjaro]

Great review. I'm getting this for the headphone Jack, batter, chip and screen and all the none gaming features.

Does charge seperation work with consuming media, ie. Netflix, YouTube? That's a great feature.

[AlexHusTech]

Great review, shame about the UD camera, would've been a great all rounder.

[sheikhedward]

how vs the Asus ROG 8 Pro or Ultra ? Not considering the below par Redmagic Customer Service and Helpdesk level, basically non existing

[victorutomo]

No notch (nor dynamic island) > selfie camera
Red magic

[TechRide.]

still gets under-optimized compared to 5 year old apple device on most apps. blame the devs, LOL

[sfmn]

Its weird that old Xiaomi Mix 4 still has one of the best UD cameras

[Fheara_Nyakki]

I cant choose between this or xiaomi 14. I play games but with this prices I also pretend that camera is very good and thats why not sure if pick x14. I owned a xiaomi mi6 imported for 7 years ans never had problems until now, my phone having lot of issues now.

[armandovillarreal]

Rise is not the top performance mode, Diablo mode is since that one should lock a 1000 mhz in Diablo mode for the gpu because my 9 pro has 903 mhz locked being I have regular snapdragon 8 gen 3

[nttunderscores]

drooling over this phone rn, though I'm still on my 7s Pro (which is holding up surprisingly well). But yeah the camera is still thrown under the rug, which forces me to use a 2nd phone just for social media.
Great review as always!

Don't waste your money with on this company, buy something mainstream as I have shipped mine for warranty for over a month and no one from customer support knows anything about it. I did some research on their so called "official repair center" which turns out to be some random third party repair facility. Most likely going to swap out all the genuine hardware for fake ones, send it back when warranty is ending to screw me over. Customer service is also subpar, all they know is to tell you wait and someone will reach out to me.

Does Anyone Know If This Accepts Visible Phone Plan Here In The U.S.?
