Redmagic's highly anticipated 9S Pro smartphone has just launched in China, with an international release slated for July 16th. This powerful device packs a punch, featuring the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, UFS 4.0 storage, and LPDDR5X RAM, available in configurations up to 24GB RAM + 1TB storage.
Following Redmagic's tradition of high-performance mobile gaming devices, the 9S Pro promises a top-tier experience. A full review is forthcoming, exploring the device's capabilities in detail.
However, a key question remains: will the 9S Pro's impressive specs translate to a wide selection of high-end mobile games? While the phone's power is undeniable, the current mobile gaming landscape may present a challenge. Unlike Apple's devices, which boast recent AAA titles like Resident Evil 7 and Assassin's Creed Mirage, the 9S Pro may primarily run existing mobile games and higher-fidelity ports of console titles such as Call of Duty Warzone Mobile. At a potential price point near £500, this limited game selection could be a deciding factor for some consumers.
For those eager to explore the best mobile gaming has to offer, Pocket Gamer's curated lists of the best mobile games of 2024 (so far) and the most anticipated mobile games of the year are excellent resources. These lists showcase a variety of titles across different genres, providing ample opportunities to test the 9S Pro's mettle.
