WEBVTT

00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:05.720
it feels like just a few short months ago I was unboxing a red magic phone but

00:00:04.240 --> 00:00:10.280
that's okay because they sponsored this ShortCircuit to show you their red

00:00:07.560 --> 00:00:14.080
magic 10 Pro and even though it's been only a couple months they have updated

00:00:12.320 --> 00:00:18.400
quite a few features with this gaming phone here first of all oh look at this

00:00:16.920 --> 00:00:22.400
colorway this is really pretty what's this one called again it's called The

00:00:20.199 --> 00:00:25.160
Moonlight they actually sent us over a couple more we'll take a look at in a

00:00:23.720 --> 00:00:29.960
second but let's see what else is in the Box here we've got our wallwart

00:00:27.720 --> 00:00:33.480
apparently can go up to 100 Watts now Char to the 80 WTS before but let's pull

00:00:31.880 --> 00:00:37.960
out the cable as well let's take a look ooh nice red cable how long is this

00:00:35.719 --> 00:00:41.160
again 3 ft 3 and 1/2 ft it's more than enough for charging your phone is there

00:00:39.239 --> 00:00:46.440
any other propaganda in here nope that's the end of this box what's in this

00:00:42.960 --> 00:00:48.680
envelope win more games which I guess is

00:00:46.440 --> 00:00:54.120
perfect for a gaming phone oh our Sim removal tool there our warranty

00:00:52.039 --> 00:00:58.359
card oh and just like last time they added a little plastic case here oh it's

00:00:56.559 --> 00:01:03.160
kind of like a frosted glass this time instead of before where it was completely see through it's funny I feel

00:01:01.160 --> 00:01:08.000
like with most modern cases now they actually bring it up so it's flush with

00:01:04.839 --> 00:01:11.720
the camera but just like the last Red

00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:13.280
magic phones no camera bump at all I'm

00:01:11.720 --> 00:01:17.080
personally biased to this feature because I hate large camera bumps if

00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:20.799
you're going to make a massively thick or a folding phone already whatever it

00:01:18.880 --> 00:01:24.040
may be why are you sticking out an extra couple millimeters give me that depth

00:01:22.320 --> 00:01:28.360
and give me more battery cuz now it actually lays down flat or if I'm gaming

00:01:26.720 --> 00:01:32.840
because it's a gaming phone my fingers don't interfere with it

00:01:30.479 --> 00:01:37.399
oh my goodness my fingers are definitely holds fingerprints let's

00:01:35.720 --> 00:01:41.079
look at the whole phone here again we got the capacitive Triggers on the side

00:01:39.600 --> 00:01:46.000
for if you're doing some sort of shooter or a driving game you've got your volume

00:01:43.439 --> 00:01:49.479
buttons here this is the exhaust for the fan that spins on the back it actually

00:01:47.880 --> 00:01:53.759
spins a little bit faster this generation by I think about 1,000 RPM

00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:57.920
and it sucks air in the bottom exhausts it out the top you've got your I'm

00:01:56.320 --> 00:02:02.640
assuming that's our power button yep that is our power button it's booting up here and and then this is our game

00:02:01.039 --> 00:02:07.240
slider button that can bring us into that game mode or back to kind of a more

00:02:04.960 --> 00:02:11.360
typical phone interface USB type c on the bottom our SIM tray there as well

00:02:09.679 --> 00:02:15.319
and on the other side there's just that intake there's actually no other buttons

00:02:12.959 --> 00:02:20.599
on this side here on the top oh look at that baby 3.5 mm Jack you love to see it

00:02:18.879 --> 00:02:24.640
overall the Finish feels really nice around the edges here let's boot this up

00:02:22.840 --> 00:02:30.120
let's take a look here wow that is a very bright what

00:02:27.480 --> 00:02:34.239
brightness am I at okay I'm about 60 % brightness that's why it felt very very

00:02:31.800 --> 00:02:39.319
bright oh look at that apparently they claimed 2,000 nits

00:02:37.040 --> 00:02:44.440
Peak brightness and in our Labs results we hit that so outdoor use in this phone

00:02:41.920 --> 00:02:46.480
is going to be more than manageable I guess while we're talking about the

00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:52.040
brightness of the screen we might as well talk about the screen itself it's a

00:02:48.440 --> 00:02:55.440
custom 1.5k resolution screen that is

00:02:52.040 --> 00:02:57.560
6.85 in and as you can see by the size

00:02:55.440 --> 00:03:05.720
of the bezels here they have reached an impressive 95.3 3% screen to body ratio

00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:07.599
dude it is quite daunting how small

00:03:05.720 --> 00:03:10.360
those bezels are and I can't even see I know I'm going slightly off topic here

00:03:08.799 --> 00:03:13.799
the unders screen camera there is one right wow this is a really pretty screen

00:03:12.400 --> 00:03:18.239
though I'll look for that camera under the screen in a bit but even further

00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:22.959
under the screen I guess is a 7,050 milliamp hour battery it's

00:03:20.599 --> 00:03:28.239
actually a dual battery and in our testing with a 45 W charger we were able

00:03:25.599 --> 00:03:33.360
to get it fully charged in under an hour and in our longevity test it lasted 19

00:03:31.239 --> 00:03:36.959
hours how that will translate into gaming time I'm not quite sure but that

00:03:35.400 --> 00:03:41.599
is still an impressive length for any amount of phone charge and that quick

00:03:38.799 --> 00:03:44.879
charging is really really crazy time you could plug it in go take a shower and by

00:03:43.640 --> 00:03:49.640
the time you come out you know you've got probably like 20 30 40 extra perc on

00:03:47.319 --> 00:03:54.159
your phone actually speaking of red mat you know what I'm noticing you missed

00:03:51.319 --> 00:03:59.400
did I miss this you didn't include me this had Mora on it last time red

00:03:56.959 --> 00:04:02.200
magic are you getting rid of my wife please

00:04:00.799 --> 00:04:08.879
wait no let's go into the game slider mode maybe my wife is there please Mora

00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:10.560
let's go I have to confirm my age oh wow

00:04:08.879 --> 00:04:15.120
you can actually change if you're a student or a Company employee or private

00:04:13.159 --> 00:04:21.199
can I keep this phone can I set it to private home screen interactive yes

00:04:18.040 --> 00:04:25.560
please enable morare

00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:25.560
yes it tickles it

00:04:26.680 --> 00:04:33.400
tickles okay well because I marked this phone as private I clearly can't game on

00:04:31.080 --> 00:04:36.600
it anymore let's grab a different one of the phones and check out the colorways

00:04:35.440 --> 00:04:41.160
these are the two other ones that red magic sent us this is called the Shadow

00:04:38.520 --> 00:04:44.800
and the dusk I personally really like the Shadow on this look kind of like the

00:04:42.680 --> 00:04:49.840
little gloss it has on the on the back there that's really nice but this one is

00:04:47.720 --> 00:04:56.919
actually starting at the 12 GB model with 256 GB of storage this one is 16

00:04:53.360 --> 00:04:58.560
gigs of RAM at 512 GB of storage they

00:04:56.919 --> 00:05:03.919
actually also have a special edition one which goes all the way up to 24 gigs of

00:05:00.880 --> 00:05:05.560
RAM and 1 tbte of storage who needs

00:05:03.919 --> 00:05:09.600
Google drive when you can actually just store everything on your phone but for

00:05:08.199 --> 00:05:15.680
our gaming performance I kind of want to play on this one so we'll put this one to the side here and we'll fire this one

00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:19.560
up and it's actually able to get those Max specs of the RAM and storage thanks

00:05:17.440 --> 00:05:25.160
to the new Snapdragon 8 Elite chip that's in here which red magic is

00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:26.720
claiming 45% power boost and 44% more

00:05:25.160 --> 00:05:31.720
battery efficient than compared to previous gens and it actually has a new

00:05:28.680 --> 00:05:34.199
GPU as well the adreno 830 instead of

00:05:31.720 --> 00:05:37.280
the 750 compared to the 9 Pro that we looked at before let's see if we can

00:05:35.840 --> 00:05:42.440
actually push the GPU to the max cuz this screen is also 144

00:05:39.800 --> 00:05:46.720
Hertz and we're in game I think what's also impressive is that I am recording

00:05:44.560 --> 00:05:52.440
at the same time and I'm not noticing any weird oh oh

00:05:49.880 --> 00:05:56.680
God yes I'm not noticing any weird hitches in the game play which is pretty

00:05:54.240 --> 00:06:01.919
sweet oh what was that oh that was the fan has a dedicated just turn the fan on

00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:05.800
button oh yeah it's definitely moving air out of there which is pretty good

00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:09.360
it's actually using liquid metal as well to help cool it using the icex cooling

00:06:07.720 --> 00:06:13.039
system it's kind of a nice Cool Breeze when it's not actually loading any games

00:06:10.800 --> 00:06:16.680
and doing any rendering it's colder than the ambient air that I'm feeling curious

00:06:15.240 --> 00:06:20.240
if you can hear it on the mic yeah it's not that bad though pretty faint right

00:06:18.919 --> 00:06:25.080
like you're holding it really close yeah maybe we can crank it though oh there we

00:06:22.440 --> 00:06:29.720
go now it's cranked it's about the same distance I

00:06:26.840 --> 00:06:33.080
was much louder overall that's not bad though if you had audio playing or

00:06:30.919 --> 00:06:37.960
headphones in you probably wouldn't even hear that at all I guess speaking of

00:06:34.919 --> 00:06:40.880
audio let's take a quick listen on

00:06:37.960 --> 00:06:44.840
YouTube it's good speakers it's 50% you wouldn't be disappointed with them let's

00:06:42.319 --> 00:06:44.840
crank it

00:06:45.360 --> 00:06:52.360
though I hear the slightest bit of

00:06:49.720 --> 00:06:57.240
crackling at the highest but I remember this with the 9s Pro if you turn it down

00:06:55.120 --> 00:06:59.800
like two notches

00:06:59.800 --> 00:07:07.039
yeah it's gone so I guess if you really need it at the max you can but if you

00:07:04.599 --> 00:07:10.720
want like good clean audio experience I feel like just a little bit less than

00:07:08.360 --> 00:07:14.960
Max is fine but you might not need that either you have a 3.5 mm Jack so you

00:07:13.240 --> 00:07:18.680
know that's a win as well this is our HDR test footage that we filmed on the

00:07:16.680 --> 00:07:23.160
re cameras we did a whole ShortCircuit on that as well just to see the AMOLED

00:07:21.160 --> 00:07:29.000
and how the screen handles it it's pretty it it it's better than my TV at

00:07:25.840 --> 00:07:31.319
home because I have Colton's 75 in TCL

00:07:29.000 --> 00:07:35.120
4K garbage I'm not really a movie experienced person on my phone anyways

00:07:33.479 --> 00:07:39.560
but if I had to watch a movie or or something on a plane this is this is

00:07:37.280 --> 00:07:43.800
great and that oh man again I just noticed again the bezels being so thin

00:07:41.759 --> 00:07:48.720
there it feels like the screen is that much bigger I mean it is it's whatever

00:07:45.720 --> 00:07:50.400
it was 6.85 right so the downside of I

00:07:48.720 --> 00:07:54.400
guess having this much screen though is you do have to put the camera under one

00:07:52.360 --> 00:07:58.080
thing again I've noticed very difficult to see it when something is on the

00:07:56.120 --> 00:08:03.199
screen but we'll see how that actually affects the quality of the camera camera

00:08:00.080 --> 00:08:06.919
but first let me take a selfie

00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:08.639
jez it's a selfie camera I don't know I

00:08:06.919 --> 00:08:13.520
don't do many video calls I don't take many selfies anyways so for me this is

00:08:11.240 --> 00:08:17.919
more than enough of a camera but I would not buy this phone if you're wanting to

00:08:16.240 --> 00:08:21.560
take photos kind of thing if that's like your primary reason for picking up a

00:08:19.759 --> 00:08:27.000
phone this probably might not be the the selling feature for you but let's try

00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:32.440
the the rear camera let's take a photo of the boys over there

00:08:30.080 --> 00:08:35.839
you go well those rear cameras are definitely better than the selfie camera

00:08:33.880 --> 00:08:40.560
the rears are 50 megapixel cameras and a 2 megapixel macro and then the selfie

00:08:38.240 --> 00:08:44.320
camera was a 16 megapixel which is the same as the 9 Pro but again they made

00:08:42.800 --> 00:08:48.880
the upgrades to the gaming performance not necessarily the cameras for software

00:08:46.440 --> 00:08:53.959
we obviously get Mora as we saw already we're on red Magic's OS version 10 and

00:08:51.399 --> 00:08:58.880
we're on Android version 15 now they have promised at least one Android

00:08:55.800 --> 00:09:00.680
version update so Android 16 hopefully

00:08:58.880 --> 00:09:04.839
but you know that seems to be the most common complaint with the red magic

00:09:02.120 --> 00:09:09.560
phones is they don't get several updates but we have Google Gemini to save the

00:09:07.680 --> 00:09:14.480
day Google Gemini as some of you know allows you to do image editing photo

00:09:11.560 --> 00:09:19.040
searching real-time translations as well and a chat let's try chatting with it

00:09:17.040 --> 00:09:23.279
I'm here whenever you're ready can you try to act more like Mora from red magic

00:09:21.959 --> 00:09:28.480
how about we start with a simple question what's on your mind today I

00:09:25.959 --> 00:09:32.399
really like the red magic phone okay I hear you the red magic phones are

00:09:30.200 --> 00:09:36.160
definitely cool known for being really fast and great for gaming you don't

00:09:34.240 --> 00:09:40.839
sound like Mora please talk more like Mora from red

00:09:38.399 --> 00:09:44.959
magic okay I'm getting the hang of this so what do you like best about Mora is

00:09:42.680 --> 00:09:50.680
it her personality the way she helps you out or something

00:09:48.040 --> 00:09:54.480
else all right let's change the subject what's something cool you've learned or

00:09:52.000 --> 00:10:00.040
done recently I'm done I'm uncomfortable now she

00:09:57.000 --> 00:10:01.240
sto she shocked me bro

00:10:00.040 --> 00:10:06.079
so after we've taken a look at all the features what do you guys think for $650

00:10:03.880 --> 00:10:09.640
at the starting price for a gaming phone I think that's pretty good $800 you're

00:10:08.440 --> 00:10:13.440
starting to get into that expensive territory and then that special edition

00:10:11.560 --> 00:10:17.120
one we talked about with that 1 tab of storage that is

00:10:14.920 --> 00:10:20.360
$1,000 you got to really love gaming in order to spend that much on a dedicated

00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:23.800
phone but then again people spend way more on their computers or sometimes

00:10:21.920 --> 00:10:26.560
multiple consoles so you guys can let us know in the comments down below but

00:10:25.200 --> 00:10:31.519
thanks again red magic for sponsoring this episode if you guys enjoyed this one go check out the last one I did or

00:10:29.839 --> 00:10:36.880
even the one before that with lonus unboxing the 9 Pro so that way you can

00:10:34.079 --> 00:10:36.880
see what the differences

00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:41.399
were taking this one
