4/5Feb 13, 2025
A capable, affordable gaming phone with flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite performance and a huge battery, held back by weak cameras, software, and no water resistance.
Snapdragon 8 Elite performance with strong gaming results
Very long battery life, lasting two or three days
Near full-screen 144Hz AMOLED display with slim bezels
Gaming features including built-in triggers and RGB lighting
Affordable price for the performance on offer
Built-in fan does little to cool the phone
No IP rating for dust or water resistance
RedMagic OS heavily stylised with bloatware
Only one major OS upgrade promised
Camera performance underwhelming compared with cheaper phones
Verdicts, pros and cons are short summaries in our words of each publisher's review; scores are as the publisher gave them. Specs are taken from the reviews' spec boxes — where they differ, we show the value most of them give; price is the US launch price of the base model. Read the originals for the full picture.
