The Nubia Red Magic 8 Pro was launched earlier this month, in January 2023. The phone holds the company’s vision to transcend the boundaries of simply a gaming smartphone. It has a new redesigned logo, alongside other features that make it an attractive option for gaming smartphone enthusiasts. If you were worried about the phone’s durability factor, you don’t have to wait too much, since JerryRigEverything’s latest durability test sheds light on the same.
During the scratch test, the phone withstood the scratches up until level 6, with deeper grooves at level 7 on the Mohs Hardness Scale. When the edges of the phone were subjected to the sharp edges of a knife, major scratches were seen owing to a lot of buttons and the phone frame being made out of aluminum. The metal volume rocker was removable as well for some reason. Also, the capacitative shoulder triggers were not affected by the scratch test, which was impressive. The Red Magic 8 Pro withstood the bend test quite well. The back glass was separated from the frame, but the phone managed to stay in one piece after all.
The Red Magic 8 Pro is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor. Being a gaming phone, it is equipped with an ICE 11 cooling system that comprises a composite graphene, vapour chamber heat dissipation plate, air aluminum box, turbofan, high-conducting gel, copper coil, cooling air duct, turbo cooler, and graphene under the screen. The device packs up to 16GB RAM and 512GB storage. It has a 6,000mAh battery unit with support for 65W fast charging. The smartphone runs on Red Magic 6-based Android 13 out of the box.
