Hey Guys, I hope you are having a great festive season so far 🎄 and enjoyed the video! 😎✌ Just thought I'd let you know the prices so here we go: 12+256GB (Sleet) = $649 16+512GB (Snowfall / Cyclone) = $799 In my opinion, this is insanely good value for money! 🤑 Let me know your thoughts 🤔 Here's a link if you are interested in buying one: redmagic.gg/pages/redmagic-9-pro-launch?ref=nickbrazer&

Out of all reviews, I have been waiting for yours. I'm using the Red Magic 5G for almost 4 years now. And I'm definitely getting this one. It's time to upgrade 🎉
@@Zeldriis well in Wild Rift in heavy fights and effects it drops to 45 FPS sometimes. I cannot turn on highest setting. Just playing at medium or else I will get 45 most of the time and it dips below 30 FPS

I still use oneplus 7 pro, with pop up camera, so no quality compromise and still notchless experience, i dont know why manufactures dont do it anymore
@@vit23745Not that fast but sounds like enough for you. I have used one for 3 years but if you use a S22, S23 Ultra, you would easily feel the difference.
Yep same, had a Global OnePlus 7T Pro brand new, then battery got very hot after 2 years. Replaced battery, but I think it's a charging regulator issue. I then got my 1st 7T Pro McLaren, for the extra RAM and well...the snazzy branding and all! Anyway, once you go no-selfie camera notch, there's NO going back...at least not for me! Because end of life updates stopping at Android 12 for the OnePlus 7 Series, I thought to go OP 10 pro. But hey, it ended up lying in my drawer cloned to be exactly like I had my 7T Pro...but man, that BLACK HOLE stealing screen real estate...I just can't get over it...sorry. I got my Wife a 7 Pro 2 years ago and my two sons both have OP 7 Pro's that I got for them. All Amazon refurbished, so got them just about AS NEW for under $300, and just added warp charge bricks and cables to replace the generic nonsense they usually send with refurbished goods. So, here I am STILL using my McLaren, with an Amazon refurbished McLaren and brand new original McLaren cover as a backup in case anything goes wrong. You know how it is when you buy a really good pair of shoes or t-shirt or whatever, that your REALLY like, and then eventually it gets worn out later? So many times I then wished I had ANOTHER pair of the same shoes, or an exact replacement! Hahaha, so I got a backup McLaren as well, just in case. Its simply one of the best phones I've EVER had, and it's still as nippy as anything !! I'm NOT a pro gamer, but I do love decent gadgets that can take the abuse and pressure with heavy design apps and video editing tools etc. I for instance have a Razer Blade 15 lap top, love it...metal chassis...just really a SOLID thing! Back then my McLaren was the talk of the town, and the branding was killer as well. I love my phone THAT much ! But, failing the OP10 pro that didn't impress ENOUGH for me to fall in love with it, I closed my eyes a few days ago and pre-ordered the Redmagic 10 Pro (shipping on 27th December I just got notified!) and got the 16GB RAM version on a special deal with one day to go before the deal ended. I wasn't LOOKING for a phone, it just popped up somewhere in an AliExpress ad and got my attention...and so I decided to check it out. Being NOT officially released, it was tricky to get proper unboxing, hands-on reviews...and yours was AMAZING @Technick. Sure, camera-shwamera...but honestly, unless you're serial photo freak, or pro photo critic constantly comparing between brands...WHO CARES!? The Camera is WAY enough on the Redmagic for general everyday use. I'm not entering any photo competitions anytime soon. With all these camera bumps getting bigger and protruding more and more on flagships, it's actually becoming an eye-sore in my view. I always say that if you want to take pro photos, go buy a REAL camera. One of these days these phones might end up looking like a REAL old school analog Canon camera with lenses...and oh look, it can PHONE as well!?hahaha. Seriously, the mobile camera focus and frenzy is getting a bit ridiculous in my view...unless you really like spending 80% of the day looking at yourself and taking pictures of yourself like many young tiktok girls perhaps? A camera used to be an added extra on a phone back in the day! Now its becoming the DO or DIE thing for many and THE deciding factor whether to buy a phone or not. Really?? ? Nee wat, kry maar vir julle! I don't think I'll have any of my clients losing sleep because my soon-to-be Redmagic 9 Pro front camera is looking slightly hazy during a ZOOM call. I use DroidCam via PC for planned ZOOM or TEAMS conference calls anyway, with my phone on a tripod as it's still better than the native laptop camera. The OP7T Pro was brilliant and much better than most laptop built-in cameras, so I'll be doing he same with the Nubia....OR, I guess I can keep the OPT Pro for that? My point is, it's SO not going to add anything or take away anything from my life not to win selfie contests, and I would sacrifice a bit of photo or video quality and NOT have that visible stolen real estate on my screen ANY DAY! I'm NOT an Apple guy, never been...but had a look at pics of the Apple 15 pro. WHAT THE HELL is that black BS taking up a third of the screen!?? Also, my OP has some rounded corners, curved glass...sure...but any more curves on that Apple 15 and the whole phone will look as round as a mini induction stove plate! hahaha Geeesh dude, NOOOO WAY, keep your titanium stove plate with a camera on. If I want to watch a movie or Netflix or anything, I SO do not want some black dot ANYWHERE ON MY SCREEN, OR the screen to be cropped with software trying to hide the camera region. My new Redmagic square corners will probably display videos and movies and games even BETTER than my OnePlus, with dimensions and ratios almost like mini TV actually. Look, you'll only relate to this- and really understand the hole-punch controversy if you've actually HAD a notch-less phone. Folks who use other brands are conditioned to "get used to it" I guess, but I for one just can't go backwards. So, a bit less selfie quality in exchange for a hidden under the screen camera to replace the current pop-up cam of my OP7 T Pro (best thing since sliced bread, I swear!)....sure, I can do that ANY DAY, ALL day! I can just imagine having had a pop-up camera WITH that headphone jack on the Redmagic WOW!!! It would have just annihilated ANY remaining minor or personal objections from any others that might be bothered by the under display camera issue. I'm just fine with it. Anyway, 2 days to go and they ship FedEx, so I might add another comment once I've been baptized with my SNOWFALL 16GB RAM, 512 storage version and have put it through the paces. Merry Christmas to ME hahaha, I don't often get overly excited about tech...I mean, sure...it's nice to get things, but strangely enough, with THIS one...I can't WAIT!!

I really need to know it's battery time against the regular flagships 😂😂😭😭. Tech Nick please on your next battery test put in the red magic just for humor and context
Nice phone, I would consider this phone if ZTE gave it atleast 3 years software and security support. For now I'll be waiting for someone to sell it 2nd hand.
Thank you so much for actually giving camera shots and specs. Im trying to decide on a ROG phone or The Redmagic. But every other reviewer says the same thing about how average or bad the camera is and "you are buying this for gaming, not cameras" Bullcrap. I want a complete phone and want to see images. You are doing an amazing job!
if you want a "complete phone" then buy some of the leading brands` flagships and don`t go buying a gamer centric product thinking it will have the software and hardware finnese of devices costing double or triple the amount of money...
Why did smartphone manufactirers ditch the pop up selfie camera, its more secure and I havnt heard of any failure also from the previous phones that had them
Hi, TechNick! Just wanted to ask you how many days/weeks it took before you received the phone? I ordered mine in their official global site too and no update since, it's almost a week tomorrow. I reckon because I'm in Australia? But still would love to know about the shipping time from a fellow costumer. Hoping for a reply, cheers!
I don't really play games on my phone, but I do find these "gaming phones" to be the most interesting. They deliver on the raw performance and are often top specs for less money than other flagships. I don't care at all about the cameras for example, so having no camera bump and notch is a plus, but also giving me high specs, a hfr display, large battery, super fast charging, headphone jack etc is pretty much exactly what I want. The one thing I don't like (about most modern phones) is how large they are. I can't reach all of the screen when using it one handed without changing my grip on the phone, which is really annoying. I'm also concerned about the longevity of the phone because of the openings for the fan. And I'm gonna miss the mute slider from my OnePlus.
Man they really need to get that selfie 🤳 camera game up. Then I'd buy it for sure. Because I owned the 7pro and used it for one year then I sold it because it sucks on social media
I've always owned phones from really big companies like Apple, Samsung, Huawei etc. so considering this phone is a bit of a gamble to me. It is either this or the S23 Ultra (possibly S24 Ultra when it comes out) but I'm really not sure which one I should buy. I love the design and the performance on this but maintenance from smaller brands (repair, even phone cases) seems like it would be an issue. What do you say about that?
For me the biggest selling point is the storage for the price. 512GB on a phone for only 800$ is huge. My current s22 ultra is maxed out on 128gb storage. If I want an s23 with 512GB storage I need to pay 1300 dollars. 800 vs 1300. Plus the redmagic 9 has longer battery and triple the charging speed. A cooler design is just a bonus. Only concern I have is long term software support since people seem to criticize redmagic for this a lot on their phones
I want an honest answer Does the Red Magic connection to Wi-Fi is bad? I heard many ppl say that the Red Magic connect to Wi-Fi is lacking. If this is the case, do you know how to Fix this problem?
Hey bro i have a question about the speakers❓ were you able to hear footsteps in cod ? Could you tell if they were coming from your left or right, back, front? I cant use headphones cuz of hearing problems, so far the only device that worked for me is the ipad pro but i dont like to game on ipads.
In terms of speakers... Sounds isn't good as rog phone 7 .... But much better than my friends iphone... I haven't tested in ipad ... So I can't say much about it... I have been using rog phone serious for gaming for so long specially codm... This year switch to red magic 9 pro coz I don't like rog phone 8 design.... And price... For the price red magic 9 pro isn't bad .. took some time to get used to it but after one week in terms of gaming experience it's not bad.. ..
it's a gaming phone and gamers don't care about camera, if you want better camera you going for different phone, they have set their goals and they following it, you could ask also why apple phones are not packed with heatsink while they advertise their phones as a gaming, I never will understand people like you, the costs would be increased for pop up camer, plus for streaming you couldn't use it at all, use a brain
You're totally right. Many people like me almost never game on their phones, and bought it mostly for the one-of-a-kind display and the headphone jack. It's really a pity that they can incorporate that technology on this phone, but don't want to, and we're left with below average selfie camera. If Nubia launches another Red Magic line with the same features without the gaming gimmicks, but centered around camera performance I'd buy it. The design of this phone is gorgeous tho, the black version is so sleek 🔥🔥
@@vhyles then clearly this product is not for you. its a gaming phone for a reason and has a target audience who wouldnt care about cameras but care about 'gaming gimmicks' their is a vast array of phones out their that will suit your needs but definately not this
I have this phone and the software and hardware are not optimised that greatly. A few apps running in the background can really drain the battery. This makes my old s22 battery seem like a boss. Honestly I hope the software update fixes these issues.
I still enjoy my Red Magic 7S Pro (Mercury) love the back plate almost space ship/race car design. I skipped all the 8 series but this looks tempting. Is there any real world use benefits VS my 7S Pro in particular?
idk man the phone or maybe the chipset have a severe heating issue its going 53-56° celcius.. and it already have a built in fan.. sd 8gen 3 is still a test chipset.. i would recommend to just wait for upcoming chipset probably sd 8+ gen 3 in future cause the heating issue might be fix
I had the red magic 6 pro and now the 8 pro currently. Biggest downside from the 6 was the screen and continues to be a downside is camera's. Obviously we not buying this phone to take pics. Go get a OnePlus or Samsung if you wanna take pics. The software support is lacking and yes wish Red Magic would get that fix in the feature. looking pass that, this is a killers deal of a phone. I love when you can play games at max settings for hours and the screen doesn't dim or slow down one bit. And no thermal throttling even in Florida weather 😅.
This may be an outdated question, does this phone work on all US networks? I haven't bought a new phone since the ROG phone 2 and it doesn't work on the Verizon network.
On red magic website BUT I just bought one and not at all satisfied. Returning it in CHINA at $200.00 CAD !!! Heats up, poor in-game sound and can't connect via usbc to monitor or any screen. Hdmi cuts sound off by 50 % more. Very disappointed and don't recommend at all for intensive gaming.

All you have to do is wait until December 27 for the early bird offer... and January 2-3 to order it. How long is it going to be until then.
I never got the appeal of mobile gaming but the phone looks cool i guess? They still have the industry low 2 year of OS support with one update?
Wow
This is awesome
First time so early too
Will it last 3 or 4 years ? Cuz idk nothing about red magic phones
Hey @technick, how do I purchase this or other phones such as this one in South Africa?
The design reminds me of Essential Phone, which looked great. But how is the in-hand feel when not playing?
Can you also use mouse and keyboard to play games?
Sick mate how would you go about a case for dustproofing/ water please mate seems only negative with this not that can afford one
I want an honest answer Does the Red Magic connection to Wi-Fi is bad?
I heard many ppl say that the Red Magic connect to Wi-Fi is lacking.
If this is the case, do you know how to Fix this problem?
Any chance they would become available in South Africa? On contract would be an even bigger bonus..
Hey bro i have a question about the speakers❓ were you able to hear footsteps in cod ? Could you tell if they were coming from your left or right, back, front? I cant use headphones cuz of hearing problems, so far the only device that worked for me is the ipad pro but i dont like to game on ipads.
In terms of speakers... Sounds isn't good as rog phone 7 ....
But much better than my friends iphone...
I haven't tested in ipad ... So I can't say much about it...
I have been using rog phone serious for gaming for so long specially codm...
This year switch to red magic 9 pro coz I don't like rog phone 8 design....
And price...
For the price red magic 9 pro isn't bad .. took some time to get used to it but after one week in terms of gaming experience it's not bad..
..
Do you recommend that for pubg how big that like iPhone pro max
very good in design and performance but does this series not have R1 L1 buttons?
How do I get it in India ... Why always this country has to miss out on great stuff
Almost bought it the other day but had a thought and checked with their tech support. No SD card slot. Deal breaker.
You dodged a bullet, trust me!
Hope it will be available in india
For me that is more worth it than samsung and iphone
FINALLY 🎉
Where do I buy it?
In this new version of Magic OS network, you can control the b Separate volume of multiple sounds when in split screen or when in floating screen?
Which one would you pick, Redmagic 9 Pro or Redmi K70 Pro?
I think I'll go with the Redmagic 9 Pro but the Redmi K70 Pro is pretty good for the price, for 650 $ you can get 24GB RAM and 1TB Storage.
Why didn't they just go with a pop-up selfie camera instead? Still gives you an all screen experience with no compromise in picture quality
it's a gaming phone and gamers don't care about camera, if you want better camera you going for different phone, they have set their goals and they following it, you could ask also why apple phones are not packed with heatsink while they advertise their phones as a gaming, I never will understand people like you, the costs would be increased for pop up camer, plus for streaming you couldn't use it at all, use a brain
You're totally right. Many people like me almost never game on their phones, and bought it mostly for the one-of-a-kind display and the headphone jack.
It's really a pity that they can incorporate that technology on this phone, but don't want to, and we're left with below average selfie camera.
If Nubia launches another Red Magic line with the same features without the gaming gimmicks, but centered around camera performance I'd buy it.
The design of this phone is gorgeous tho, the black version is so sleek 🔥🔥
@@vhyles then clearly this product is not for you. its a gaming phone for a reason and has a target audience who wouldnt care about cameras but care about 'gaming gimmicks' their is a vast array of phones out their that will suit your needs but definately not this
I have this phone and the software and hardware are not optimised that greatly. A few apps running in the background can really drain the battery. This makes my old s22 battery seem like a boss. Honestly I hope the software update fixes these issues.
I still enjoy my Red Magic 7S Pro (Mercury) love the back plate almost space ship/race car design.
I skipped all the 8 series but this looks tempting.
Is there any real world use benefits VS my 7S Pro in particular?
I really want one but I'm too broke, but I'm working hard for it.
Will this phone work is U.S carriers such as TMOBILE?
Absolutely
With no budget to worry about, whats the best android to be bought right now?
idk man the phone or maybe the chipset have a severe heating issue its going 53-56° celcius.. and it already have a built in fan.. sd 8gen 3 is still a test chipset.. i would recommend to just wait for upcoming chipset probably sd 8+ gen 3 in future cause the heating issue might be fix
Do you have more info about the heating issues? A link?
@@stumpyscards just watch gaming/ reviews by other youtube tech channel u can actually see actual gaming and heating test
I had the red magic 6 pro and now the 8 pro currently. Biggest downside from the 6 was the screen and continues to be a downside is camera's. Obviously we not buying this phone to take pics. Go get a OnePlus or Samsung if you wanna take pics. The software support is lacking and yes wish Red Magic would get that fix in the feature. looking pass that, this is a killers deal of a phone. I love when you can play games at max settings for hours and the screen doesn't dim or slow down one bit. And no thermal throttling even in Florida weather 😅.
Must have received a faulty unit, it burns my hands after 4 games! Returning it and it will cost me $200.00 CAD !!!
This may be an outdated question, does this phone work on all US networks? I haven't bought a new phone since the ROG phone 2 and it doesn't work on the Verizon network.
Me watching this :
My bank account : 😭
Hello Nick, love your videos from #Pakistan.
Does it have Volte?
the only con is the OS and its long term support
It seems great. But I had the redmagic 8 pro and the celluar connectivity just wasnt very good.
All reviews I see on redmagic tend to ignore this but I have heard this feedback many times
@@stumpyscards its because its a shill video paid for by the chinese phone company so obviously he isnt going to cover it objectivity
Why not put a tiny screen on the back like the Xaomi MI 11 Ultra ?
It's such a simple solution.
Use selfie cam only for video calls.
How did you change the apps to look like google stock android?
Its my first time watching ur vid but i can tell ur sa bc of that accent iam from sa also
Will it support android 15 update?
Why don't they use pop up selfie camera like Honor 9x
Your voice is amazing 😍😍😍
Thanks!
Guys ur soo lucky i live in Tunisia and a galaxy s8 after all those years still costs more than this redmagic 😢
Are you really testing that speaker only with Genshin impact sound ??. It very helpful test 😊
If it was a little bit smaller, this were the best smartphone! Not that overrated Samsung S23 ultra or iPhone 15
Is this device available in the us
you sound like a really really good AI voiceover.
HOW TO PREVENT THE FAN INSIDE GAINING DUST ? ANYONE HELP?
Assassins Creed, Resident Evil Village, Resident Evil 4, Death Stranding and other AAA only on iPhone 15 pro 😢
Is it available in india
Bro how much price red magic 9 Pro+16 512 variant
🤑 Which country buy this mobile in Nepal
nice
Anyone can suggest me, How I find this phone, or how I Purchase this phone. Which Web, THROUGH Amazon ya what.
On red magic website BUT I just bought one and not at all satisfied. Returning it in CHINA at $200.00 CAD !!! Heats up, poor in-game sound and can't connect via usbc to monitor or any screen. Hdmi cuts sound off by 50 % more. Very disappointed and don't recommend at all for intensive gaming.
Nubia Red Magic 9 Pro +
❤
With 24Gb/1Tb
Hey, do you have the phone we with 1tb? That's what I want. Where did you order your phone from?
My problem with the 8 pro is it was slippery AF, and adding a case to it makes it heavy, i dont know abour the 9 pro
How do we activate the 50 mp setting?
