Specifications
In terms of specifications, the biggest differentiator between the two phones is the battery and fast charging tech. The RedMagic 8 Pro+ packs a 5000mAh battery with 165W fast charging support. The RedMagic 8 Pro, on the other hand, packs a 6000mAh battery with 80W fast charging.
Both phones pack a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC. The company has also upgraded its internal cooling system called ICE 11.0 with a built-in fan and an air duct. The cooling system also features a 3D ice-grade dual pump and up to 10 layers of heat dissipation materials, which work together to bring the temperature down by 16 degrees. There is also a custom-developed Magic GPU to optimise frame rate performance.
On the front, there is a 6.8-inch OLED display with a Full HD+ resolution. The screen, which is flat, has very thin bezels around it. There is support for a 120Hz refresh rate, 960Hz touch sampling rate, 1300 nits of peak brightness and a billion colours.
The devices come with a flat frame that houses 520Hz shoulder triggers. There is a 3.5mm headphone jack and a triple-microphone setup.
For selfies, the under-screen camera features a 16MP front camera. On the back, the cutouts feature a 50MP Samsung GN5 main camera, an 8MP ultra-wide camera and a 2MP macro sensor. The phones boot Android 13-based RedMagic OS 6.0 out of the box. There is no word on the global launch timeline of the gaming smartphones from Nubia. We will share more details when available.
