The day has finally arrived and Nubia has taken care of that, so we have the first gaming phones on the market with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. Also, one of these devices has recently exploded as you wish, making our teeth even longer.
But the announcement date has already arrived, so we already know all the details of the RedMagic 9 Pro and 9 Pro +. They are beasts as we have come to expect from them. They have all the numbers to become the emperor of the high region (like the previous versions) and also many interesting new features. Keep reading to find out everything.
All specifications of Nubia RedMagic 9 Pro and 9 Pro+
The RedMagic 9 Pro and Pro+ are outrageous, offering power and up to 24GB RAM configurations.
The most important element in any device made for video games is its performance and Nubia knows that very well. Ever since the series has been around, the ZTE subsidiary has always equipped one of the best chips every year. This is the time. Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, the most beastly SoC ever made by Qualcomm.
RedMagic 9 Pro+ has already proved its worth by reaching a high score of 2,290,773 in AnTuTu 10. With more than enough data to measure its full potential, it set a world record for this measurement. in other words: There will be no game, app, emulator or provider that will let you down. Be careful, and this is not the only amazing thing.
This pair has a unique co-processor inside it: el RedCore R2 Pro. It is an auxiliary chip that optimizes games to improve their performance and analyzes each scene to provide better vibrations and sound effects. The regular version (R2) has already been a surprise and this one will definitely be no different.
These two also offer large amounts of RAM and storage, two things that are essential for running multiple applications smoothly and installing all the games you want. There are settings for everyone, so you choose the level:
RedMagic 9 Pro versions: 8 GB + 256 GB, 12 GB + 256 GB or 12 GB + 512 GB. RedMagic 9 Pro+ versions: 16 GB + 256 GB, 16 GB + 512 GB or 24 GB + 1 TB.
You are not reading wrong, there is a version with 24 GB RAM and 1 TB storage. And as you can imagine, All this cutting edge hardware is under the control of Android 14.It works under the RedMagic OS customization layer (the ninth version), which is one of the best on the market.
Screens that live up to the promise and without interrupting the front camera
Do we agree that the second most important part of a mobile player is its screen? Definitely yes. That’s why Nubia equips the new RedMagic 9 Pro and 9 Pro+ with a premium panel.
Both terminals use the same screen: the Q9+ panel made by BOE, 6.8 inches and with AMOLED technology. Resolution is Full HD+.A decision that felt very right to us. the reason? Because you don’t waste money on meaningless resolutions or compromise performance on such a small screen (like WQHD+).
The refresh rate is 120 Hz and the touch sample rate goes from 960 to 2,000 Hz (crazy). What does this mean? That When you use the screen to play, you will completely forget about the delay. The anti-flicker PWM system reaches 2160 Hz, which is a typical image for high-end mobile phones and gamers.
Of course, the idea of hiding the front camera behind the screen is repeated in this generation. It’s true that the entire screen is mobile, because there are almost no bezels. Of course, the only thing the Nubia could offer more was higher brightness. This panel reaches a brightness of 1600 nits This is not bad at all, but there are more terminals than this (like the Xiaomi 14 with 3000 nits).
These RedMagic “don’t” have a rear camera module, but they have good cameras
Don’t be afraid, it’s just a game about the camera module. The RedMagic 9 Pro and 9 Pro+ have their own rear cameras, with three sensors divided as follows (and we’ll use the front one to list):
50 MP main camera (Samsung GN5) with PDAF and OSI. 50 MP ultra wide angle (Samsung JN1). 2 MP macro with f/2.4. 16 MP front camera f/2.0 (hidden behind the screen).
It’s a perfect combination of sensors for a mobile gamer, for which we should be thankful. It is not common in this area. Of course, let’s hope that the front camera quality is improved in this new generation.
But let’s go back to the design and the “no” module. Nubia went further than Samsung in the Galaxy, because the company did not go far enough to eliminate the island and only let the lenses stand out from the back. They wanted everything to be integrated from the inside and achieved it, because The new RedMagic is completely smooth. Front and back.
This is a big milestone as we know how difficult it is to fit so many high-end items into such a small space. In addition, they do it without sacrificing and without endangering the temperature of the device.
The ICE 13.0 cooling system is very good, up to 18 degrees
The thermal factor is thanks to the new ICE 13.0 cooling system, which can reduce the operating temperature of the internal components by up to 18 ºC compared to other competing options. How do you achieve it? with A 3D vapor chamber with a graphene surface covering 10,182 mm²classic 22,000 RPM fan and 30% better conductivity.
And with a strict focus on visuals, the RedMagic 9 Pro and 9 Pro+ don’t disappoint. Its design is as powerful as you’d expect from a gaming mobile, with straight bezels. Aircraft grade aluminum, RGB lights and glass back (clear or opaque).
There are two triggers, an alarm slider, stereo speakers for high-fidelity sound, an under-screen fingerprint reader, and even room for a 3.5mm headphone jack.
Plenty of battery for the RedMagic 9 Pro, but brutal power for the 9 Pro+ model
To close, we have to say that Nubia has played very smart with these phones and their power systems.
on the other hand, el RedMagic 9 Pro It will be the best option if you want to play a lot outdoors. The 6500 mAh battery promises amazing autonomy so you don’t have to worry about leaving it stranded. Also, 80W fast charging is not bad at all.
For another RedMagic 9 Pro+ is aimed more at home gamers.. The 5500 mAh battery is enough for a good day of gaming, but if you want to go all day, the battery will charge in minutes. The 165W fast charging is proof of this, as it only takes 16 minutes to reach 0 to 100% charge. Come on, what should you eat or take a quick shower and continue doing your thing.
