On December 26, the new Red Magic 8 series mobile phones were released. The author learned that there are two new models of and Red Magic this time, namely Red Magic 8 Pro and Red Magic 8 Pro+. Except for the difference in fast charging power, other configurations are exactly the same.

The body of the Red Magic 8 Pro has a right-angled frame, and the back uses a large-area flash sand process, giving it a matte feel. The advantage is that it does not stick to fingerprints. The flash and camera are arranged in the center, and the rear is a three-camera combination. The main camera is a Samsung GN5 super-sensitive lens, 50 million pixels, and a 1/1.57-inch sensor.

A unique texture is printed on the back of the fuselage. The red devil pattern below adds hidden RGB lighting effects. Players can display their own preset lighting effects during the game.

Red Magic 8 Pro is equipped with a 6.8-inch AMOLED flexible straight screen. The screen is a collaboration between Red Magic and BOE . It uses "one drive, one" technology, that is, one pixel circuit drives one OLED pixel unit.

increases the amount of light entering the camera area under the screen by optimizing the spatial arrangement of pixels in the camera area without reducing the pixel density of the camera area. Equipped with UDC PRO+ display chip, it uses algorithms to improve the color effect and detail of the front area.

screen is COP package, with narrow sides. BOE’s self-developed new blue diamond pixel arrangement method is used to optimize the underlying logical architecture of the pixel display and eliminate the graininess of the screen display. Resolution 2480×1116, 120Hz refresh rate, up to 960Hz touch sampling rate, 1300nit peak brightness, 10Bit color depth, supports DCI-P3 100% wide color gamut, and supports 1440Hz PWM dimming and DC dimming.

adds dual independent IC touch shoulder buttons in the middle frame of the fuselage. The sampling rate reaches 520Hz, the response only takes 1ms, and it also supports custom settings. The entire Red Magic 8 Pro series comes standard with a USB 3.2 Gen1 full-function interface. In addition to charging and data transmission, it also supports DP and Red Magic host mode functions.

Red Magic 8 Pro is equipped with the second-generation Snapdragon 8 mobile platform, which adopts TSMC’s latest 4nm process technology , with a super core frequency of 3.2GHz. The CPU performance is improved by 37%, the GPU performance is improved by 42%, and the power consumption is reduced by 50%. In addition, the entire Red Magic 8 Pro series comes standard with LPDDR5X memory and UFS4.0 flash memory.

Red Magic 8 Pro is equipped with a shark fin high-speed centrifugal fan with a maximum speed of 20,000 rpm, which effectively reduces the body temperature. There is a full-through air duct inside the mobile phone, which increases the air flow by 37%, greatly improving the heat dissipation efficiency.

In addition, Red Magic 8 Pro also introduces the industry's first 3D ice-step dual-pump VC, which significantly improves heat dissipation efficiency compared to traditional single-chip VC and dual-chip VC. Graphene heat dissipation is added under the screen to increase the screen's heat equalization capability by 6 times.

In terms of battery life, the Red Magic 8 Pro uses 80W fast charging and a 6000mAh battery combination. In addition, there are two-dimensional characters such as Game Space and the Red Devil Princess Mora. The game space provides a wealth of plug-ins and game-related functions. Mora, the Red Devil, launches her fourth skin, which supports the virtual idol live broadcast function.

It is worth mentioning that the Red Magic 8 Pro also supports external keyboard and game controller functions, and can also be connected to the Red Magic Shadow Blade controller to perform exclusive optimization for Red Magic mobile phones.

Overall, the configuration of the Red Magic 8 Pro is at the top flagship level. It has the second-generation Snapdragon 8 chip, a large 6000mAh battery and a true full screen, which is an all-round improvement. From the appearance point of view, it is not only a high-performance gaming phone , but also a main machine for daily use. Considering the starting price of 3,999 yuan, I think it is still a good deal.
