This video popped up and immediately the ascent gave it away, good to watch a review from a fellow South Africa.
Bro is too smart for youtube. Running 2 games at once on an android phone is insane and no one would've thought to check
have been watching tech vids since highschool 🤣 that was a decade ago.
nothing quite like your channel👍👍
Man looking back at the asusROG phone 2 this is such a massive leap. These phones are getting insane.
Incredible trick flip with your board Nick !! 🤗👍
I was waiting this review thanks technick 😎✨👍🏻
Love the thickness of this rig, I really hate that silly trend to make smartphones slimmer at the cost of specs and functionality. I don't spend much time selfying so I don't care much about the selfie camera and find it cool that it is hidden below the screen. The camera system is good but not on par with other flagship devices on the market today, but well, this is a gaming-centered phone.
My only complain is the lack of expandable memory, that is disappointing.
But the others phones display is not on per with this one, which makes it even better . I don't care about selfie cameras either
3.5mm jack ftw. With 512gb... Probably no need for a card slot.
Oh but there is, since it's a gaming phone it's going to need a lot of space for many games, I'm sure they wanted to be greedy they can make a extra $200 version that comes with two SD card slots
Hopefully i will receive mine tomorrow. Cant wait to get my hands on it.
Thanks for the detailed review I'm planning to get one for myself (after the samsung event)
Brilliant 💕 as always Nick...loved your excitement and passion, you always have loved gaming
thanks you for this review man 🙂
Now this is a company that cares. Actually upgrading the phone while taking the price down! BIG UP REDMAGIC!!!!
Yes but tbh I only play android for emulation and gaming, but the aspects fo software and support still matter to me.
The iPhone 14 pro is perfect in that sense, I can play many games ( no emulation sadly ) the software expirence is fantastic, the camera’s are good, and have good durability, also having 5 year support.
If anyone knows a phone that has a sad gen 2 that’s close or is basically like this then could anyone tell me?
@@dio8070 Software support is not everything, especially when the company don't give all the new software features after 3-4 years anyway. And app devs don't put that much effort to make their app running on obsolete IOs, unlike on Android where even Android from 10 years ago still can still install new apps if it's supported.
@@dio8070 I also want an android phone with great camera, stable software and ecosystem. I ended up setting for S23U 12/256 for $1,499(My country's price) This phone is great. Can play CODM for 4hrs straight with still more than 50% battery. Samsung Dex is useful as well for work. The S pen and splitscreen is great for drawing tutorial(hobby).
I like the back camera of S23U commpared to any other iPhone, but in term's of front camera, I still somehow prefer my second device iPhone XR.(tbh, I look good on iPhone camera. My face a bit bigger compared to S23. Just a little bit)
Edit: Yes, S23U is SD 8 gen 2
This is a truly gaming smartphone
You ever used one red magic haha
True
truly one of the phones of all time
thank you Mr. Obvious
@@TomiIslam33 ok why does that matter
Thanks for the awesome review
Hay Nick.. love the channel.. it's fantastic having a South Africa review on the latest tech... Keep up the excellent work... I really love the videos
dang I didn't know you skated. that's tight I'm definitely watching more of your videos. hopefully you have more skate in testing your. cameras on the phones. nice. kick flip.
Can’t wait for mine to arrive.
So I've watched a bunch of reviews on this phone. This is the best Ive seen. You give actually tested stats and opinion and tell me what anyone who wants to buy this phone needs to know, especially the camera segment.
Thanks,
The camera really crap 😅
@@haziqehsan nah its a gaming phone also it has the best camera on the gaming phone market
@@haziqehsan also your english is also quite "crapt"
@@McLova911 lol crap...
@@haziqehsan Why do you even speak to people, pretty sure your opinion is crap.
Year on improvement on Adreno GPU have been really crazy.
GPU of 8Gen 2 is atleast 120% more powerful than 865 launched 3 years ago...
Still many lags on most 3d games..
@@niphanif hell no
@@niphanif also it say more POWERFUL
@@niphanif that's because of game optimization, not necessarily the fault of the hardware.
A clear overview ) bro , a lot of devices have already been released on Snapdragon 8 gen 2 and dimension 9200 chips, I'm waiting for a video , battery test)
I've been waiting for your review, didn't watch any other about this phone
Very in-depth video 🔥
This is the one, I've never been more excited to to buy a phone more than this one
TechNick was super excited about this one too! Thanks for watching 😃
Better to just buy an iOS devices for gaming looks cool tho
@@AM-dn1iq No it's not. They throttle
@@fanban2926 tbf for less then 600 this phone is so awesome
@@AM-dn1iq they throttle alot, for gaming id rather get a Blackshark than iphone
This Display.... Wow!!!
Battery separation mode a main plus for me now I’m buying this smartphone.
Gaming phones are great daily drivers , crazy specs, amazing looks, and this one actually has a nice camera so im not gonna think twice about this one
A nice & detailed review of the device. I'd like to suggest not freezing the footage when talking about some key elements. It feels kinda weird. And also to not speed up the footage at parts where you could just edit out what you don't need instead. Makes for a cleaner video. Just my suggestion. Thanks!
Nice to see you skateboarding:)
For me, this is the best review for this device... 👏👏👏
Hi @TechNick, I think you should do some audio mastering in your videos. Even though the audio is crisp and great, I feel like its too crisp that it pains my ears even at lower volumes when you say words which includes the word "S" in it. Well good luck with your channel! :)
Awesome device 👏. Congrats, Nubia 👌
question to ask if I wanted to get a red magic 8 pro. in matte or void color unlocked for the usa or in any state would that or any of the third party gaming phones would work on any carriers. is it worth it to go from a apple phone. or to a gaming phone to play games on.
Is there a need for an extra cooling fan even gaming for the excellent or is the bulletin fan enjoying?
Thanks for this. Does the phone have native call recording???
hi, cam you test the maximum resolution and refresh rate for video out via usb c ? thank you
Will an official Samsung dex cable work with this on the tv?
St . John " my story of the camel was the final straw which broke the camel's back " of Damascus . 😂
as for the camera under the display, they need to create a more trained post processing for this fog effect that still prevails, along with a new arrangement of oled layers
They definitely can but I think for many people it just doesn't matter. I've used the front camera a total of 3 times last year, I can live without that and I think I'm talking for a lot of people when I say that
Do you need a SIM card to use this for gaming or could you use this like a tablet and just connect it to wifi and not have to have an active phone plan for it?
Haven't seen TechNick so excited to post a video on such a great device in a while... although he loves all brands & devices, he was very excited about this one! Well done Boss 😃
@TechNick Is it worth to pick Redmagic 8 pro with 12 gb ram and 256 storage instead of the old Redmagic 7 pro with 16 gb ram and 512 storage memory ? For genshin and diablo immortal, is it a must to be have 16 gb ram?
So fantastic and amazing phone I’ve seen in my life I’m interested in to buy it mine living sir ❤❤❤
is it bad that it have a fan , it build dust up or how to clean it? and hows the experience with the software
Excellent💯👍👏 smartphone📱, excellent review! 😊
Welp. I was inspired in waiting I guess. I'm definitly buying this phone on release.
The display ✨️😍
Does the DTS:X ultra sounds better than the dolby atmos or DTS:X speaker with amplifiers like ROG 3? Im concern with the speakers 😅
Hey Nick, can you do a battery drain test for the Vivo x90 Pro Plus?
Can we expect a battery test against 14 plus and pro max ?
Awesome video. I still have a redmagic 5G and its still performing amazing! Redmagic is the way forward.
I just got my red magic 8 pro +, upgraded from my 2 years red magic 5g. 2 days after usage of 8 pro +, so amazing. The fast charging so incredible.
how is the software and general usage , temps
Hello, I'm in the states, can you tell me where you purchased your phone? I would definitely like to get one.
What's that app that u used for framerate test at 10:50?
Great review. It's a shame such a beautiful and Powerful phone doesn't have desktop mode similar to Motorola and Dex on Samsung then you truly have a portable computer in your pocket
GPS (Google Maps ) works well? Cameras better or worse then the Xiaomi mi 11? Should I cancel my order and order a Xiaomi 13 pro and an additional cooling fan ? (I game quite heavy - AOV, COD MLBB, Genshin
Nice one. But 2:50 not sure about that. This is a pure new look and they nailed it.
How long do Red Magic phones last? I had a Samsung 7 and it lasted me 8 years until I decided to trade in.
What app is that he uses to test the screen? 10:52
how about security update and OS update ?
i mean how many year/s redmagic 8 pro major update are there ?
I expect to be an elbow type charging port like the POCO F4 GT so that it will comfortable when gaming while charging
Can you do a battery drain test on this. Is it the 6000 mah version
He forgot fan, did forgot have any use or is it just a decoration there? Did fan do any cooling?
How did you get the xbox controller to work like that ?
Will this work on att in the states?
The Camera selfie is insane 😂😂😂😂😂
Ooo my word i love it i want one awsome phone
You forgot to mention "Diablo mode" in the performance section. This locks the CPU and GPU at the highest frequency - substantially improving the performance over rise mode.
How do you know 🤔
@@Horti_Horti Taki Udon made a video on the phone and on this feature, everyone so far has missed it. It's a hidden mode in the "performance settings".
@@jeremiahnordby5167 Thanks 👍
@@Horti_Horti I have the 7spro and have the secret diablo mode on 24-7. It's a secret phone number you can dial and it unlocks the options
@@Syroton which options
The red magic ✨
Also black magic ✨ +RGB
But gaming smartphone cute cut 😋 design
Looks very nice
so which is better? ROG 6 or this phone cause i getting a new phone and i don't know which one i should choose
U just wanted to show us that u can land a kickflip, didn't u? 🌚
Great video
Brilliant 🥂🥂 it would be awesome if other phone manufactures made the under screen camera and the under screen fingerprint sensor so you get all screen, no notches or camera holes. They did a great job in terms of the screen itself. The body itself rectangle is perfect. Niceee. 😃 going to be looking into this phone more.
Don't worry apple will get it out in a couple years and say "for the first time in a phone" lol
@@mustacheme25 totally. Nickel and diming you on tech. Upgrades. 🥂🤙
My P30 Pro is 2 times weaker on GeekBench scores than this phone and P30 Pro is 2019 FlagShip and it is still a Beast. I can only imagine how powerfull and fast is this Gaming Phone. Phones are just another level these days.
when on desktop mode does bypass the battery?
GORGEOUS!!!!
yo nick.. is this better than asus rog 6d ultimate ?
is the xbox controller wireless???
Since I don't care for cameras in general and especially for selfie camera after poco f2 pro I'm gonna get that soon,the design is the most beautiful that we have seen in a phone,the screen is perfect and the battery can last,price range i believe is the cheapest sd gen 2 atm snd it doesn't sacrifice anything for the price
Can they work with Verizon as the provider? Never had one of those phones before
What will the sorfware support he for this device?
Redmagic 8 pro and Redmagic 7s pro both have same game space version? ( Mean both have same feathers?)
In my opinion pre-ordered already xD
The thickness with a case on will be a problem but oh well, maybe I'll take it off when I game.
Just made an order 😍
Hello, where did you order your phone from?
Can't wait to receive mine next week. Great review as always!
I want it too 😞 but i got my 7s Pro just 4 months ago, i like it. Its perfect but the 8 is even more perfect 😬
Looking forward to future gen of this phone with that CES "fan"

I don’t know much about red magic but the clean android Ui is 🔥
The best gaming smartphone I've ever seen! 💯
22 fps 3D rendering @ 4K on a phone is pretty impressive
And has the graphics of a 3A game
Where can i buy this. How to order
Do you know if it has wifi calling
What's about android& security updates?
Great gaming performance. I'm not sure I would pick this one up. I feel I would be happy playing games but disappointed when I need to take photos and videos. I'm even surprised they went with Gorilla glass 5 and not 6, which came out in 2019. I guess for the price, you can't expect more. I still prefer a good all-rounder that does everything well. I'd rather pay $1000+ for that. I'm just going to wait to see how good the s23 Ultra is.
I'd honestly buy it just for the sole fact that it has a headphone jack, not only that but it's pretty cheap compared to Samsung/apple.
I'm no gamer nor am i a camera guy, i just want a cheap fast phone 😅
@YourFatBoy Yup, one of the biggest scams they've pulled on phones these days is to tell us they can no longer fit a headphone jack.
@YourFatBoy I love gaming, but photos and videos are so big for me that I even purchased Lumafusion to edit videos. I feel if I have a phone with subpar cameras, I'm going to still need to spend extra to get a proper camera. So I would rather just buy the expensive flagship with outstanding cameras.
@@Marlon_J good point.
@@Marlon_J Totally agree with you, to choose, I prefer to buy a Vivo X90 Pro+ which is barely 4-5% less powerful in game, but which is very far ahead on everything else.
Or wait for the S23 Ultra.
So what kind of knife is that??
Whats the screen size?
It can run 2 games at the same time 😮 WOW
Can you do review on red magic 3 so we can see how it handles in 2023 play call of duty please
Wioooah...wifi 7? can't wait to hav 1.
Honestly the camera system is ideal. Like when do you actually run around taking macro shots or purposefully finding a reason to use ultra wide. They focused on what the people would mainly use, that being the main sensor which is GREAT. 4k 60fps looks amazing imo and definitely gets the job done
Amazinggg
Thank you for this review and because of it's a gaming phone I liked that u focus on gaming part especially the settings of gaming center which distinguish gaming phone from each other
Also happy you mentioned widevine security level
But I'm sad that u didn't mention PUBG mobile if it support 90 FPS on it or not
Also does the place of 3.5mm while playing with shoulder triggers is convenient in hold or not
Thank you and hope u answer me and include these points in the next gaming phone review
Bro pubg is dead now and Ofcourse 90 fps is unlocked in every smartphone with sd 8 gen 2
@@jitendargupta7451 that's not correct my friend, I have 3 devices with Qualcomm snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and all of them no 90 FPS option in global PUBG and all of them are gaming phone
And I have one SD 8 Gen 2 and doesn't have it neither
@@hammadmibox its with shitty pubg developers because i have red magic 6 pro which has sd888 and 90fps option is supported
@@marwanal-gamal5436 I know and I contacted them through discord and in-game support and lots of emails and never support my gaming phones
Really they are the shittiest developers ever
@@hammadmibox It's the same garbage as with Fortnite, which Epic still first has to "approve" the Phone or Tablet for a 60Fps option. Even new SD 8 Gen. 2 phones still get only 30Fps support. The Redmagic 8 Pro has 60Fps gladly already.
What do you play it for?
