Red Magic 9 Pro Unboxing & Review | Super-Powered Gaming Smartphone!

День тому

Unboxing Nubia's Red Magic 9 Pro, with a review of the gaming performance, testing that Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 power with Genshin Impact etc. Gamers will adore the Red Magic 9 Pro's epic performance, plus the impressive battery life and dedicated game tools. It's solid competition for the ASUS ROG Phone 8 and other gaming phones. Grab yours here: bit.ly/3TtfsqU
Vs the 8S Pro, you can expect plenty of upgrades. That Qualcomm chipset is just one massive factor, which means you can play Genshin Impact without a single judder in the 60FPS frame rate for over an hour. The Red Magic 9 Pro also boosts the battery size to 6500mAh, and you can play Genshin for well over five hours before the phone runs dry. The camera tech is basic, but fine for simple everyday shots.
Nubia has added the usual excellent range of gamer features, including a pair of pressure-sensitive triggers. Now with strong haptic feedback. Plus, the upgraded ICE cooling system does a marvellous job, with a surprisingly silent fan.
The Red Magic 9 Pro finishes with a stereo speaker setup and full-view AMOLED screen with HDR10 support. So, what do you think of this Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 gaming smartphone? Let us know below!

I have absolutely no need to gaming phone but I do have a need for a beefy battery, smooth performance and a great screen and speakers for video. This fits the bill perfectly without looking too much like a gamer phone when I stick a case on it. And a bargain compared to the price of other flagship phones.

I went from the 22ultra to the 8pro and after a year it's been an awesome phone. I think its still the coolest looking phone still, I prefer the design to the 8 than this new one but it's very close. It is a bit buggy sometimes tho, the fingerprint reader will randomly stop working then it's fine again. The screen flashes when closing apps sometimes. The alarm for some reason never worked lol it does everything it should exept won't ring or vibrate when the time comes no matter what you try. The charge separation still has never worked on mine, but when it comes to gaming it handles anything perfectly. The battery life is amazing, charges super fast. I don't regret buying it and would still recommend it to anyone who games on their phone. 4/14/24 update: Ever since redmagic finally released the major software update about 2 weeks ago, Every single issue has been solved! It's sooo much better now. Lots of new features, no more glitches, alarm works now, it's perfect now. If you were thinking of getting it now is a good time.

iPhone looks from last century from ages now. There are the pop-up cameras phones from 2018, till the recent 2021, but they drop that design in the last 2 years for some reason I don't know, because I can't go back to a phone with punch-hole or notch, as it's scratch my eyes.

@Over-mh3wr 4 місяці тому

But with the worst front camera setup ever. Pop up camera was actual garbage. I think it's just not worth it yet for general phones as there are too many drawbacks. Either the phone will have awful camera quality like the Red Magic phones, or will be giga expensive if it has good under display camera quality, or will have to use the garbage pop camera which there is a reason why no company uses that nonsense anymore. Hole punch is just the best middle ground.

@Over-mh3wr 4 місяці тому

@@marcochavanne Seems you never had one. I never said anything about picture quality. And you say fast???? You literally have to wait for the camera to pop up every time you want to use it lmao. How in the hell is that fast. Any other camera you just instantly snap away no waiting needed. And how on earth was it flawless? It had a motor that was needed to pop the camera up and down. What happens if that motor gets damaged or malfunctioned or wear and time over time which is inevitable? You had to send in the entire phone just for them to fix the pop up camera alone. And if the pop up camera was so good as you're making it seem, then why does no other company do it anymore? Oneplus hasn't done it since. Why is that? Because it's garbage, not worth it and has way too many drawbacks. Read a dictionary and learn what fast and flawless mean. Just an uneducated take.

I noticed the clean unobstructed screen right away, and then went peering for the underscreen camera right away, which you actually can detect in some of your closeup shots, but seriously, I'm glad to see this. It's like after iPhone Xs came out companies carved off a chunk of the screen because consumers enjoyed it, which maybe they did find it fashionable for a period, but now everyone's finally getting back to their senses. The last fashion statement that does nothing for functionality is adding extra cameras that are all shit. That and few future updates are seriously the only weaknesses of this phone. Wish they'd have put just a single, better quality camera on the back of this one.

Compare to Rog 7, this red magic has a cooler temp, bigger battery and faster charging, most importantly, more affordable. One downside, the rgb fan on the phone needs a filter or the dust and hair gets hooked to it but overall I couldn't be any happier with the purchase.

I feel that maybe the selfie camera won't have the blur if they programmed it to deactive/turn off those pixels in front of that camera while it's in use. Just a guess though, don't know if that would help or if it's even possible.
