Last month, the Red Magic 8 Pro series of flagship gaming smartphones were launched in China. The series consists of two devices – Red Magic 8 Pro and Red Magic 8 Pro+. Now, the brand has announced the arrival of the Red Magic 8 Pro to the global market.

While it appears that the global market is not getting the top-end Red Magic 8 Pro+, the Red Magic 8 Pro that’s launching outside of China on January 16 will also lack a key feature. The official teaser of the device confirms that the Red Magic 8 Pro global variant will feature 65W fast charging. To recall, the Chinese variant of the same device comes with 80W fast charging support. The battery, however, will have the same 6,000mAh capacity. It remains to be seen if the brand has chosen to change up any other specifications for the global market.

Red Magic 8 Pro specs

The Red Magic 8 Pro which is already available in China is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset. It is paired with up to 12GB of RAM and up to 256GB of internal storage.

It sports a 6.8-inch OLED display offering 2480 x 1116 pixel resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. Additionally, the devices include ultra linear dual stereo speakers that support 48 ms low latency, 96 kHz lossless music, and Snapdragon sound.

A 50-megapixel primary sensor, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide angle lens, and a megapixel macro sensor make up the device’s triple camera setup on the back. An under-display 16-megapixel selfie camera is located on the front.

The Red Magic 8 Pro’s big 6,000mAh battery pack supports 80W rapid charging and, according to the manufacturer, can provide a substantial 47 hours of battery life. The gadget comes pre-installed with Red Magic OS 6.0, a custom skin based on Android 13 OS.
