Chinese device maker Nubia’s latest Red Magic gaming phones are loaded with high-end specs. New 7S red magic and Red Magic 7S Pro feature 6.8-inch HD+ AMOLED displays with high screen refresh rates and touch sampling rates, Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processors, support for plenty of RAM and storage, and a cooling system that includes a fan.
The phones are now up for pre-order in China, and the Red Magic 7S Pro is expected to go on sale worldwide in August.
A few things help this model earn the Pro its name, including an under-display camera, improved cooling, bigger battery, faster charging, and support for a bit more memory and storage if you opt for the most high-end configurations.
But honestly, both versions of the phone have features that are hard not to call overkill. Nubia ships both models with a 165-watt GaN tech fast charger, for example, although the Red Magic 7S “only” supports 120W fast charging and the 7S Pro tops out at 135W charging.
The Red Magic 7S has a 165Hz display with a 720Hz touch sampling rate, while the Pro model has a 120Hz display with a 960Hz touch sampling rate.
And the Red Magic 7S supports up to 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage, while the Red Magic 7S Pro is available with up to 18GB of RAM and 1TB of storage.
Here are some additional key specs:

The company will announce global launch details for the Red Magic 7S Pro on July 26 and start taking pre-orders on August 2, and generally offer it from August 9, 2022.
Although international pricing has yet to be announced, the company is selling the entry-level Red Magic 7S with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage for around $600 in China, while the Red Magic 7S Pro starts at around $775 for a 12GB/256GB comp. I would expect international prices to be at least a bit higher than that.
