Redmagic's highly anticipated 9S Pro smartphone has just launched in China, with an international release slated for July 16th. This powerhouse device packs a punch, featuring the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, UFS 4.0 storage, and LPDDR5X RAM. Four configurations are available, topping out at an impressive 24GB of RAM and 1TB of storage.

Following Redmagic's tradition of high-performance mobile gaming devices, we'll soon be delivering a comprehensive review of the 9S Pro's capabilities. Previous coverage of Redmagic's chargers and coolers has prepared us for the advanced technology within.

However, a potential concern arises: will the 9S Pro's impressive specs be fully utilized by available mobile games? While Apple devices boast recent high-fidelity ports of titles like Resident Evil 7 and Assassin's Creed Mirage, the 9S Pro may initially rely on existing mobile games, such as MiHoYo's catalog or Call of Duty Warzone Mobile. Considering a potential price point around £500, this might not justify the purchase for all gamers.
