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,
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.
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
@@jo3ziah updates only 1 year how the f do you gonna repair or return and build quality and do video game really matter this much? Etc... I did and still have redmagic 3s as a second phone ...
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
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.
@@Search_EARTHLINGS 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".
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 😃
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 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 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.
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!
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.

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
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
I really wish they made a HANDHELD, there's a market for handhelds and not only just powerful slabs that doubles as a phone. Android gaming isn't really there for me to buy this, but it has plenty of power for emulation!
@@deleongk Nah there should just be more and better emulators, i rather have this than a crappy handheld like a switch that barely even gets the 30 fps
@@deleongk You can just get one of those controllers that you can slide the phone inside and it will be just like a switch. What is the difference? Absolutely none. The switch controllers are also something you put on.
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
I bought 1 couple weeks before from Hong Kong online.i received the void global version honestly can't be happier more once you hold in your hands and play games then you will know the huge difference in gaming experience.i have used all sort of phone for gaming this is the best phone in the world for 2023 thank you nubia red magic for such a beautiful gift
Somehow...I'm interested in owning one. Here's why: -I played a lot of mobile games -I stream/watches a lot of YT -not really a camera guy Overall, the hardware seems top notch and the design seems really appealing to me. However, it is noted that Nubia's software maintenance isn't the best and this is what concerns me the most. Help me out...😭😭😭
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
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.
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! :)
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.
Thank you for giving the bezel measurement! For an OC guy like me who's nuts for symmetry, it's a very important detail, and sometimes becomes a deal breaker. You got a sub sir!
Nice detailed video! I am stuck debating on this device or the Pixel 7. Despite the fact that there's finally a gaming device I actually want. I am hesitant about Nubia's software updates 🤔
Meanwhile I am in a dilemma to buy Xperia 1IV or this Redmagic 8 pro. The xperia is good at video and photo but bad at gaming, the redmagic good at gaming not at photo and video.. 😣😓
I'm buying this just for the design and won't even play any games in it. I haven't been this excited about the design of a phone since the first Xiaomi Mi Mix
Hey, where are you buying your phone? I'm in the states and want to purchase the phone but not sure where to buy it. Do you know where I can buy the phone?
@@jaibrown6153 Their official website. It should automatically default to US region. But don't buy it now - on the 18th they are launching the 9 Pro, so just wait for it. It will cost the same as 8 Pro and 8S Pro
I can't say I have ever meet someone with a gaming phone. If you use one why? What is the reason for owning one over a PS5, Xbox, or gaming PC? Personally for me I don't get it, I have a PS5 and S22 Ultra and I am happy with having seperate things since I feel the PS5 is a way better gaming platform than a phone. so I would like to hear from those who do why you like it. Thanks for sharing!
I get you, and respect your setup. Mine is very similar. But there are those out there that can't afford both so at least there's phones out there like this that come at a great price and provide both experiences? Thanks for watching!
Also I don't think Android gaming is there, like so many IAP games and micro games, this phone has so much power, these games don't do it justice. I wish they made a handheld like the Ayn Odin, this thing has plenty of power for emulation! I personally prefer a dedicated handheld, not a phone that does gaming. It's just with streaming? When we could stream from our home pc's, like... ya know?
@TechNick very good point! It provides a really nice affordable balance that can give a good experience on both sides. Here in the United States I think people gravitate towards a phone and console/PC setup more but in other nations maybe people enjoy different setups. Thanks for your great videos I really enjoy them!
For obvious reasons.. miles better thermal and battery life. I dont really care about performance they pretty much quite the same anyway. But when the phone throttles during summer or hot days just doing daily stuff it's just the worst.
What the freak!!! This phone have more abilities than me she can work on different things like having a 2n1 game it truly a gaming phone definitely this is a Number 1 Phone this date 😜💥
I think you didn't speak much about the most exciting part of this phone, the charging separation,I can use the phone directly without charging the battery this will help with heavy gaming sessions and the battery will last longer because Charging while playing pushes the battery a lot. I am soo exicied to buy this
This should be the top feature mentioned. Not mentioning that instantly shows this guy was just going threw the motions. And why even spend so much time talking about the camera on a gaming phone. BORING! I am sick of reviewers and their camera infatuation. I guess UA-camrs are attention hoes so that is why cameras are important to them.
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.
@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?
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
Hey, if you're testing genshin on mobile phones use an account that's level 47 or 50 because that's when everything is unlocked and everything in the game is running
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?

What the freak!!! This phone have more abilities than me she can work on different things like having a 2n1 game it truly a gaming phone definitely this is a Number 1 Phone this date 😜💥
Excellent💯👍👏 smartphone📱, excellent review! 😊
Thanks for this. Does the phone have native call recording???
I expect to be an elbow type charging port like the POCO F4 GT so that it will comfortable when gaming while charging
This is a monster phone 💯👍
GORGEOUS!!!!
Nice to see you skateboarding:)
is it bad that it have a fan , it build dust up or how to clean it? and hows the experience with the software
Will you do a battery drain test ?
I wanna see how long does the 6000m 8gen2 take to drain
Unfortunately it s dual cell
Charging bypass is the best for all gaming phone. You can plug it while gaming without worrying to degrade battery.
Ooo my word i love it i want one awsome phone
Im not a phone gamer but this looks incredible... is it worth getting if your not really a gamer ?
Okay, it's MAGIC. Value for money... 👍👍👍
Will an official Samsung dex cable work with this on the tv?
I think you didn't speak much about the most exciting part of this phone, the charging separation,I can use the phone directly without charging the battery this will help with heavy gaming sessions and the battery will last longer because Charging while playing pushes the battery a lot. I am soo exicied to buy this
This should be the top feature mentioned. Not mentioning that instantly shows this guy was just going threw the motions.
And why even spend so much time talking about the camera on a gaming phone. BORING! I am sick of reviewers and their camera infatuation.
I guess UA-camrs are attention hoes so that is why cameras are important to them.
Can you do a Battery Drain Test?
Man 6000mah is huge. You can probably use powerbank to play because it separates the connection to the battery.
Best looking gaming smartphone!!
U just wanted to show us that u can land a kickflip, didn't u? 🌚
Great video
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.
Im waiting for air jet cooling implemented on phone, no more fan, no more noise... Dam new technology
He forgot fan, did forgot have any use or is it just a decoration there? Did fan do any cooling?
@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?
I believe that redmagic is the best gaming phones company
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
Watching this on red magic pro 8 transparent. Swapped from rog3 . Was gonna get rog6 but I want to give this phone a try.
So what u think ?
what about the red magic 7s pro ? everyone was like this phone is a beast
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
Hey, if you're testing genshin on mobile phones use an account that's level 47 or 50 because that's when everything is unlocked and everything in the game is running
That's just not true at all, is it
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?
I didn’t here I talk about battery life? Would u say u could easily make it through two days with the new bigger battery?
Battery tests coming soon! TechNick does them separately 👍🏼
Hey Nick, can you do a battery drain test for the Vivo x90 Pro Plus?
Looks very nice
yo nick.. is this better than asus rog 6d ultimate ?
