I’ve personally observed the progression of Redmagic phones over time, and let me tell you, none has left me as impressed as the Redmagi 10S Pro. Today, we’ll be diving deeper into this exceptional device, as our focus is on a comprehensive review of the Redmagic 10S Pro. I can hardly contain my enthusiasm!
We’ve had a chance to observe both the Redmagic 10 Air and the Redmagic 10 Pro, but what came as a surprise was the introduction of a new model, the Redmagic 10S Pro. How does this differ from the 10 Pro, and what unique features does it offer?
Redmagic 10S Pro specs
As I usually like to start, here are the specs for this beast of a phone:
- Performance: Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Leading Version, paired with LPDDR5T RAM and UFS 4.1 Pro storage
- Display: 6.85″ full screen, 144Hz refresh rate, 1.5K resolution
- Battery: 7,050 mAh battery, 80W fast charging
- Cooling: 2nd Gen Liquid Metal cooling targets the GPU area, providing an additional 3.6°C drop compared to the previous model
- Design: Matte metal frame with anti-glare etched glass, glass back, RGB lighting
- AI integration: Real-time voice translation, AI photo editing
- Other: 520Hz shoulder triggers, X-Gravity, RGB lighting, ICE-X cooling with Liquid Metal 2.0, a giant vapour chamber, and a 23,000 RPM fan
Redmagic 10S Pro vs Redmagic 10 Pro
The two are fairly similar, and since there is no visible difference, it got me thinking – how different are they, actually? So I started putting both to the test, since it tickled my curiosity. That’s when I realised that while the exterior is virtually the same (size, weight, display-to-body ratio), the inside is where all the differences lie.
Stronger CPU, better gaming!
The CPU on the 10S Pro is an Octa Core 2×4.47 GHz, while on the 10 Pro it’s an Octa Core 2×4.32 GHz. What that means is the 10S Pro has a lot more computing power than its predecessor. That allows for newer games (with smoother graphics, like Crystal of Atlan, for instance) to run smoothly, without any issues whatsoever. I personally haven’t run into a single issue, no matter how much multitasking I put it through.
Multitasking at its finest
One of the main things I did was to change my “main phone”,
finally
, from the old ROG Phone 6D Ultimate to the Redmagic 10S Pro. I can’t say I am disappointed. Quite the contrary, I am so happy I did that.
The Redmagic 10S Pro allows multitasking seamlessly, enabling you to play games simultaneously with background music, all while effortlessly switching between five other windows without any delay or hitch. This makes it an ideal gaming phone for those leading active and bustling lives.
Beautiful, sleek design enhanced by the RGB lighting
I’ve always loved the simple yet beautiful design of the Redmagic phones – and not only the phones, but the tablets as well. There is a little
je ne sais quoi
that stands out and turns heads. For the Redmagic 10S Pro, the design looks exactly like the 10 Pro’s.
It might have been nicer to incorporate a unique touch for added distinction, but I wouldn’t call myself entirely displeased either. Given the solid foundation of the initial design, it seems unnecessary to alter something that functions well in the first place.
Having a completely flat glass back reduces the chance of unintentionally scratching or damaging your camera lenses due to its smoothness. Furthermore, the addition of fully illuminated logos in RGB light and a cooling fan enhances the overall appeal of the device.
This setup gives the phone a distinct gaming vibe, yet you have the option to deactivate these features for a more casual, understated aesthetic. However, I advise against turning them off as the design is significantly enhanced when they’re active!
Highly responsive in games
I briefly touched on this before, but I have to point it out again. The gaming performance of the Redmagic 10S Pro is just off the charts. I have tried several games, from Tetris to Asphalt 9: Legends, PUBG, Genshin Impact and Crystal of Atlan, and the performance didn’t flinch. Of course, the graphics in all those games are on Ultra (or the highest ones available).
The shoulder triggers are all you could ask for
Since I do play shooters from time to time (and I am in no way, shape or form good at them), I like having the shoulder trigger buttons for some additional help, just like you would with any controller.
On this device, you have the flexibility to configure and personalize settings as per your preference, and what’s more, you can even adjust the sensitivity level. This feature is particularly useful in shooting games since it helps keep your fingers off the screen, reducing unintentional interactions. I strongly suggest tailoring the settings according to your gaming style!
They’re highly responsive, too, so you need to play a few practice games to get them just right.
Pro back camera
The back camera on the Redmagic 10 Pro is one of the best I’ve had the pleasure of playing around with. I’ve tried the custom AI filters for the sky (Milky Way, Northern Lights, etc), and they are so much fun! The quality of the pictures is also top-tier, regardless of whether you have shaky hands or not. It has an auto image stabiliser, which is a huge feature for those like me who can’t seem to hold their hands steady to take a picture.
Still not thrilled about the front camera
The one drawback I would say is the front camera. I wasn’t thrilled when I tried taking a few selfies, but that didn’t deter me. It’s true – taking selfies is not that great, but the rest of the features more than make up for it.
It’s not easy finding phone cases for it!
One of the issues (if you could even call it that) I had with the device is the ease of finding phone cases for it. It’s really difficult, if not impossible, to find a compatible phone case. The phone does come with a case, which is sturdy and looks nice, but if you want something a little different, you’ll probably have to do quite a bit of digging to find some compatible ones online.
To put it straightforwardly, the Redmagic 10S Pro seems to be nearly flawless in terms of everyday use as well as gaming performance. It’s incredibly dependable and robust, boasting impressive power, a battery life that can last for days even with heavy usage, and an added advantage of never overheating.
With the arrival of summer, you can feel confident that your device won’t demand rest or require you to chill it with an ice pack; its overheating days are behind us thanks to the efficient built-in cooling fan.
You can purchase the Redmagic 10S Pro from the official website!
