Two weeks after the China version announcement, the much anticipated Global version of the Red Magic 8S Pro is also announced
The global versions of the Red Magic 8S Pro have been announced, and they come with a number of improvements over the Chinese version. The most notable change is the use of the new Snapdragon 8+ Gen 2 processor, which offers a 5% increase in CPU performance and a 5.7% increase in GPU performance. The phone also has a dedicated gaming chip called the Redcore R2, which is designed to further improve gaming performance.
