90% Nubia Red Magic 8S Pro review: a big performer with a small price tag
Source: Techradar English EN→zh-CN
The Red Magic 8S Pro might be nigh-on identical to its immediate predecessor, but we still can’t believe the value proposition it provides. For just $649 / £579 you’re getting top-tier gaming performance, mappable controls, rapid charging, and epic battery life, all wrapped up in a striking all-screen design. Cluttered software, a mixed camera set-up, and one or two non-gaming-optimised decisions mean that it’s not the very best gaming phone on the market. But at this price, it’s undoubtedly the best value.

100% RedMagic 8S Pro Review: Excellent gaming smartphone with the right price tag
Source: Android Headlines English EN→zh-CN
So, should you buy the RedMagic 8S Pro? Well, we really can’t give you a yes or no answer here, it all depends on what you value in a phone. Truth be said, the RedMagic 8S Pro has a really competitive price tag. The most affordable model costs $649, and comes with 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 256GB of UFS 4.0 flash storage. That variant is all-black. The ‘Platinum’ and ‘Aurora’ models come with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage. Those two models are metallic silver and black with a see-through back, and they do have different price tags. The ‘Platinum’ costs $779, while the ‘Aurora’ model costs $779. Those are still truly appealing price tags. If you like gaming on your phone, and you do appreciate great performance above everything, the RedMagic 8S Pro may be the phone for you. The fact it doesn’t have a display camera hole, and has a ton of gaming features is a huge plus.

Source: Tech Advisor English EN→zh-CN
The overclocked chip, fast storage and generous amount of RAM ensure the 8S Pro has fantastic performance – exactly what you want from a gaming phone. This is enhanced by the trigger buttons, effective cooling system, excellent battery life and dedicated software features. It’s also a great platform for media consumption thanks to the lovely display and the lack of a punch-hole or notch to spoil things. As an everyday phone it’s a little less appealing. The device is heavy, has no water-resistance rating, average cameras and selfies are laughably bad. Software bugs persist, but these can be fixed with updates. Ultimately, if you’re looking for a powerful gaming phone that doesn’t cost the Earth, then the Redmagic 8S Pro is easy to recommend. .

Nubia has plenty of experience with gaming phones at this point and it shows. The OEM knows how to put together a great gaming phone without much fluff. Despite its flaws like not-so-amazing camera experience, awkwardly translated UI and the lack of HDR support, the new 8S Pro is a solid gaming solution. We still like the design carried over from the 8 Pro and even managed to improve upon cooling. The 8S Pro has by far one of the best, if not the best, cooling solution we've tested. Continuous and strenuous workloads are a non-issue for the 8S Pro, so long gaming sessions shouldn't be a problem too. Display is great and battery life is impressive, to say the least, especially considering that the cell has to power up the overclocked Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. And, of course, the gaming-centric features are, as always nice and thoughtful for the better part.

80% RedMagic 8S Pro review: The new ultimate gaming phone
Source: Tom's Guide English EN→zh-CN
If you want the top gaming experience on a mobile phone right now, you may find nothing fits the bill better than the RedMagic 8S Pro. After paying less than the going rate for a phone of this size and spec quality, it'll be even easier to appreciate how long the RedMagic 8S Pro lasts on a single charge, how quickly you can refill it, and how the handset looks just as powerful as the chipset inside. But in the long term, because of its uncertain software support window, dubious camera quality and missing water resistance rating, this phone could cause you trouble. It's not an easy recommendation like the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is, even though Samsung’s phone does cost quite a bit more. Once again, the RedMagic 8S Pro is very much a phone for gamers, even if RedMagic has made strides toward broadening the device’s appeal somewhat. The RedMagic 8S Pro boasts a lot of good qualities, but if your priorities lie beyond running games at their best, it's not a phone to shortlist.

85% Redmagic 8S Pro review: The S stands for superfluous
Source: Android Police English EN→zh-CN
The RedMagic 8S Pro is undeniably an improvement over its predecessor, but I’m hesitant to recommend it even though it retails for the same price. Nubia’s aggressive strategy with marketing its RedMagic series is deeply frustrating. Why bother buying the 9 Pro next year when you might expect a slightly improved version to arrive right around the corner? While some RedMagic S models have offered substantial changes, their inconsistency is frustrating. If you factor in sales, the RedMagic 8S Pro won’t offer the same value as the 8 Pro for some time. However, if you want a top-of-the-line gaming phone for an affordable price, the RedMagic 8S Pro is an excellent choice. But if you already own the 8 Pro, don’t let Nubia dazzle you with numbers and technical jargon; you won’t notice the difference. The RedMagic 8S Pro will be released on August 3.

Overclocked Gaming Monster! | Red Magic 8S Pro Review
Source: Tech Spurt English
Unboxing the Red Magic 8S Pro with a review of the gaming performance, now with an overclocked 'Leading' edition of Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. The Red Magic 8S Pro is one of the best value gamer smartphones in 2023, also boasting a 6000mAh battery, crispy AMOLED screen with hidden in-display camera and premium specs. UK price and release date info hopefully coming soon as I've been testing and reviewing the Red Magic 8S Pro ahead of the official launch. While some rumours had this gaming phone powered by a Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 2, it's actually a boosted version of the original chipset with a pimped up prime core. Very similar to what Samsung crammed into its S23 smartphones.

80% RedMagic 8S Pro review: Pure power
Source: Pocket Lint English EN→zh-CN
All in all, the RedMagic 8S Pro is a very similar phone to the RedMagic 8 Pro. The previous model debuted as one of the fastest gaming phones on the market, and its successor is doing the same thing. To summarise what's changed - the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 comes with an overclock, the cooling solution has been improved, there's a new OS with extra gaming features and the styling has been updated. I love the new look, especially the subtle transparent fan window on an otherwise opaque rear panel. The gaming performance is impressive to see in benchmarks, but I wouldn't say it's very noticeable in practice. The system is far less buggy this time around, though. I had one major hiccup, but I'm confident this will be patched soon enough. I wouldn't recommend this as an upgrade for RedMagic 8 Pro owners, it's simply too similar. But for anyone else, it's a small improvement on what was already one of the best gaming phones. If you're looking for pure performance, look no further.

100% Redmagic 8 Pro Titanium review: gaming phone goodness for a great price
Source: T3 English EN→zh-CN
All in all, this is a strong handset. Performance is on par with anything else I've been hands on with, with the battery life even outstripping them slightly. In regular day-to-day use, you'll be more than satisfied – top that up with a few mobile gaming sessions and you're really going to get your money's worth here. The biggest downfall is probably the camera. As mentioned above, the main sensor is definitely good enough for most, but the others are lacking. That might be a deal-breaker for some. Regardless, it's worth a look. Take away the gaming credentials of the handset for a second – you're getting an 8 Gen 2 powered handset with a crisp, 6.8-inch display and a whopping battery for less than £750. That's a bargain. For gamers, it's a no-brainer, but even those in the hunt for a regular phone with a slightly more modest budget should give this a look.

只有较少的手机有很大的屏幕。

大尺寸可以让屏幕有更高的分辨率。因而例如字体等的细节将会更丰富。不过另一方面,小屏幕的功耗会较低,而设备也会更轻盈小巧,售价更低。
