RedMagic 10S Pro goes global with overclocked Snapdragon 8 Elite, improved cooling
The latest RedMagic 10S Pro is now available outside China, combining high-performance parts with an elaborate cooling solution. This includes the overclocked Snapdragon 8 Elite Leading Version, a new chip for game graphics upscaling and a 23,000rpm active cooling fan.

The Leading Version chip has higher clock speeds than the Snapdragon 8 Elite we usually see. The CPU goes up to 4.47GHz (up from 4.32GHz) and the GPU clocks up to 1.2GHz (up from 1.1GHz). The performance of the NPU has been increased by 40%.
For high sustained performance, RedMagic borrowed ideas from gaming PCs. There is 36mm² of liquid metal in direct contact with the chip. This has a higher thermal conductivity than typical compounds and is credited with a 5°C reduction in temperature. The liquid metal guides heat to a 12,000mm² vapor chamber, plus graphene and copper layers, which work together with the high-speed (but quiet) fan to push heat outside. The fan has RGB lighting customizable with up to 15 colors.

The 10S Pro can be configured with up to 24GB of RAM and up to 1TB storage, though note that available options differ by color. There is a detailed price breakdown at the end. Note that the phone launches with RedMagic OS 10.5 based on Android 15.
Besides the cooling fan, another trademark feature of RedMagic devices is the rectangular screen – a custom 6.85' OLED panel from BOE. It has 1216p+ resolution and a refresh rate up to 144Hz, though each game supports different frame rates.
Speaking of, the Snapdragon chip is paired with the RedCore R3 Pro gaming chip. This is responsible for super resolution upscaling to hit 120fps in multiple titles, but also deals with input (for low latency touch detection) and cooling too.
The display has a one finger sampling rate of 2,500Hz, for multiple fingers it is 960Hz. That's not the only control, though. As usual, RedMagic has included two shoulder triggers with 520Hz sampling rate. There's also a MagicKey that launches Game Space (but it can be customized to launch other features too).

Another aspect of endurance is battery life – the RedMagic 10S is equipped with a massive 7,050mAh battery. That can be charged up quickly at up to 80W.
The phone features 4D tactile feedback that combines with DTS:X-certified stereo speakers for a more immersive experience. The rear RGB lighting can be set to react dynamically to sound cues from games, which adds some flair to the experience.
The main camera on the back is based on a 50MP sensor (OV50E) and has optical image stabilization. Next to it is a 50MP ultra-wide (OV50D) and a 2MP helper module. On the front – actually, below the screen – is a 16MP selfie camera.
The RedMagic 10S Pro will go on open sale on June 18 (that's Wednesday two weeks from now). However, there will be a short pre-order period before that – more on that soon! For now, here is the pricing of the various color and memory combinations that will be available on global markets. RedMagic 10S Pro 12GB/256GBNightfall

OnePlus rumored to be working on new gaming series
OnePlus is apparently working on an entirely new line of products, which will be very gamer-oriented. The smartphones in this line will have bigger batteries than the other OnePlus devices, flagship chipsets, and dedicated gaming triggers. The bad news is that initially this new series will only be available in China. But of course, if it proves to be a huge success over there, it may then make it to international markets. OnePlus 13 Unfortunately, no other details about this line or any member device have been outed so far, but we'll let you know when we find out more. In the meantime, let us know in the comments whether you're excited to see something more gamer-oriented from OnePlus. This sounds like it would compete head-on with RedMagic, for example. Source

iPhone 17 display requirements may force Apple to cut ties with BOE
A tale as old as time: China-based display manufacturer BOE is having trouble passing the strict requirements set in place by Apple. If this continues, the iPhone 17 family will use displays exclusively from Samsung and LG, and BOE will lose a major business prospect. BOE is currently ( translated source ) trying to pass the display requirements for the iPhone 16 Pro, which uses an LTPO OLED screen. Apple calls this a 'ProMotion' display, and its biggest advantage is its ability to reduce its refresh rate from 120 Hz all the way down to just 1 Hz. This is useful for preserving battery life when using apps that don't require high refresh rates, or when the phone's always-on display is active. Multiple reports have come in stating that Apple is thinking of shifting all of the iPhone 17 models to displays with higher refresh rates. If BOE is being asked to pass the LTPO OLED display requirements, then there is a good chance that every single iPhone 17 model will ship with a ProMotion screen. However, BOE has been unable to pass these tests. Furthermore, LG Display's recent large investments have industry experts wondering whether the company already has sizable orders lined up. Both Samsung and LG have reportedly begun mass manufacturing of displays for the iPhone 17 series. The iPhone 16 Pro uses an LTPO OLED display. | Video credit — Apple Apple has been trying to shift to BOE for years, mainly because this will result in a reduction of manufacturing costs. However, the company isn't willing to compromise its flagship experience, and even debuted its in-house cellular modem on the budget iPhone 16e. Samsung is also concerned about rising costs, especially now that 2 nm chips are around the corner and cost significantly more. According to reports, Samsung is considering Chinese suppliers of materials for OLED manufacturing. This decision is allegedly driven by the singular goal of reducing manufacturing costs. The company has been hesitant in the past because such a move will involve sharing its roadmaps with said suppliers. If BOE is unable to pass Apple's requirements in time, then the iPhone 17 lineup will only feature displays from Samsung and LG. BOE may catch up in the future, but this will undoubtedly be a major blow to the manufacturer. Secure your connection now at a bargain price!
