A new contender to the claim of the world’s most powerful gaming phone has entered the market, with the REDMAGIC 8S Pro being freshly unveiled to tempt onlookers to ‘join the circle.’
If you’re curious about the tech that backs the claim, there is plenty to talk about in what’s powering the performance alone. The 8S Pro comes with the latest version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 paired with Red Core 2 gaming chip. The new gaming phone is built to handle the power, too, with a lofty 6000mAh battery and an innovative cooling system that includes an enhanced super large VC cooling plate, a new duct structure, and cooling gel.
The nifty tech setup powers an immersive gaming experience. You’re getting a UDC 6.8 inch full-screen display complete with a 120Hz refresh rate and up to 1300 nits brightness. There’s also just as much thought behind the audio quality to make sure everything sounds just as good as it looks.
But how does the REDMAGIC 8S Pro help you perform? You’re getting 520HZ shoulder triggers, a game centre with over 10 dedicated gaming modes and customisable controls that include a plug-in library. That’s not all either as gaming-centric software enhancements keep things ticking along nicely.
Whether you fancy taking in the beauty of a game or entering the competitive arena yourself, the REDMAGIC 8S Pro is built to serve. You’ve got the visual technology to make the lush vistas of Genshin Impact pop, with an AMOLED screen keeping Teyvat looking its best. The show gets a definitive full-screen treatment, too, with Nubia’s second-gen UDC tech’ delivering ultra-thin bezels and zero notches.
It’s not all about the looks, though, as the REDMAGIC 8S also looks out for your personal performance. Those 520Hz shoulder triggers ensure a 7.4 ms response rate to keep your aim fast and precise, offering an edge in the sort of clutch gunfights you’ll find yourself in playing Call of Duty, PUBG, and Fortnite.
You’ve also got some nifty plugins you can use to set reminders to ensure you don’t miss an in-game event, or a stopwatch that can be used to catch the other team off-balance when their skills are on cooldown – ideal for the budding League of Legends pro.
You won’t be short of a squad either as REDMAGIC boasts a community of tech enthusiasts who have long decided to ‘join the circle’. One five-star review echoes a popular sentiment in calling the REDMAGIC 8S PRO the “best phone in the world” for gaming, whereas another adds that the performance “exceeded” their expectations.
“I am now enjoying the game without any lags or delays,” the user review continues. “Moreover, what I also like is the long battery life.”
Plenty of phones have the capability to run games or streaming services, though fewer are more dedicated to the hobby than the REDMAGIC 8S PRO. If you fancy joining the winner's circle yourself, the powerful gaming phone is currently available through early bird offers. Commencing on August 3, regular prices start from £579/€649/$649 for the Midnight model, with the Platinum model costing £689/ €779/$779 and the Aurora model coming in at £709/€799/$799.
