The machine translation of the Weibo post that carries the above teaser of the Red Magic 9 Pro describes it as the “ultimate form of a candy bar phone”. The side view of the phone, which can be seen in the teaser, showcases a unique right-angled frame design without a protruding lens module, setting it apart from competitors.

The only thing about the Red Magic 9 Pro that has been officially confirmed is that it will feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. However, a leak by the tipster Digital Chat Station has revealed what to expect from the photography capabilities of the device. According to the leaker, the device is equipped with an OIS-assisted 50-megapixel Samsung GN5 primary camera, which has a 1/1.57 sensor size. It will be complemented by a 50-megapixel Samsung JN1 ultra-wide-angle lens.

Reports have claimed that the Nubia phone bearing the NX769J that has appeared on some certification platforms as well as Geekbench is likely to break cover as the Red Magic 9 Pro. Apart from the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, the device is expected to offer Red Magic UI-based Android 14, a 6,000mAh battery, 100W wired charging, and an under-display selfie camera.

Apart from the Red Magic 9 Pro series, Nubia is also said to be working on the Nubia Z60 Ultra featuring the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. The Z60 series flagship is expected to launch in December 2023.
