REDMAGIC has launched the REDMAGIC 12 Pro+ in China, introducing a new gaming smartphone with a 185Hz under-display full-screen display, RGB liquid cooling, and an 8,400mAh battery. The new flagship marks nine years of the company’s esports technology development and combines gaming-focused hardware with features designed for everyday use. The phone starts at RMB 6,999, which converts to approximately $1,047, while the global version will be marketed as the REDMAGIC 12 Pro.
The REDMAGIC 12 Pro+ is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 processor, alongside the RedCore R5 gaming chip and CUBE Engine 4.0. REDMAGIC says this hardware combination is designed to improve graphics processing, touch response, and frame-rate optimization during gameplay. The phone also supports adaptive full-scene ray tracing, bringing additional graphics capabilities to compatible games. Its 185Hz display targets players who prioritize high refresh rates, while the ninth-generation under-display technology keeps the front screen free from a conventional camera cutout.
Cooling is another major focus of the new device. The AquaCore 3.0 Cooling System combines RGB liquid cooling, a dual-crystal micro-pump, TurboFan 5.0, and Liquid Metal 4.0. The system is designed to manage temperatures during extended gaming sessions and help maintain performance under sustained workloads. REDMAGIC has not provided independent performance figures in the supplied announcement, so real-world thermal performance will need to be assessed through testing.
The smartphone features an 8,400mAh battery with support for 120W wired charging and 80W wireless charging. REDMAGIC OS 12 adds updated AI features and cross-device connectivity, while compatible PC gaming support extends the device’s capabilities beyond traditional mobile games.
REDMAGIC is also expanding its gaming hardware lineup with the GOLDEN SAGA collectible edition and a new MiniLED monitor. The GOLDEN SAGA smartphone features a forged-carbon pattern, a gold-colored liquid-cooling ring, and gold-and-silver accents around the cooling airflow structure. A configuration with 24GB of RAM and 1TB of storage is planned, although its price and availability have not yet been confirmed.
The new REDMAGIC MiniLED gaming monitor features 5,184 independent local dimming zones for more precise brightness control, deeper blacks, and brighter highlights. It also includes proprietary dynamic clarity technology designed to reduce motion blur and ghosting in fast-moving scenes. The dual-mode panel supports 2K resolution at up to 330Hz or 5K resolution at up to 180Hz, allowing users to choose between a higher refresh rate and greater image detail. The monitor is priced at RMB 6,499, equivalent to approximately $972.
In China, the REDMAGIC 12 Pro+ is available in Nightfreeze, Subzero, and Skyfrost. The 12GB+256GB configuration costs RMB 6,999 (approximately $1,047), the 16GB+512GB model costs RMB 7,999 (approximately $1,197), and the 16GB+1TB version costs RMB 8,999 (approximately $1,346).
