The REDMAGIC 12 Pro is built for ultra-smooth competitive gaming. It is based on the latest Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 and features REDMAGIC’s RedCore R5 gaming chip. The 2nm Qualcomm chipset can clock up to 5GHz and needs active cooling for sustained performance. The RedCore R5 chip assists the Snapdragon chip with rendering acceleration, super resolution and super frame technologies. It also optimizes touch input and controls the lighting.

These systems naturally tie into the AquaCore Cooling System 3.0. It features a redesigned vapor chamber that has a 15% larger cooling area and 50% higher thermal conductivity. The vapor chamber is mated to the Liquid Metal 4.0 assembly with a copper-foil composite structure and is responsible for efficient heat transfer from the chipset to the next stage.

Version 3.0 doubles up the liquid cooling with a dual-crystal micro-pump that can reach up to 130kPa of pressure (85% higher than the previous generation). These pumps sip power using as little as 20mW. The pumps’ job is to take the heat from the chipset and deliver it to the 25,500RPM turbo fan. The fan is dust resistant and REDMAGIC found a way to improve its shaft durability by 30%. The cooling system has RGB lighting, which shines through transparent panels on the back to complement the signature REDMAGIC aesthetic.
The phone is equipped with a 6.85” 1.5K OLED panel, BOE X11, which features an industry-first 185Hz refresh rate. The X11 panel can do 1,900 nits peak global (full-screen) brightness and up to 5,000 nits peak local brightness. The screen comes with an SGS Eye Care Certification. A Synaptics touch chip handles touch input with up to 5,000Hz instantaneous and up to 500Hz average touch sampling. Wet-hand touch is supported.
The REDMAGIC 12 Pro has a battery with increased energy density – this is a double win for design as the battery capacity has increased to 8,400mAh (12% larger than the 11 Pro battery) and the phone is slimmer at 8.5mm (down from 8.9mm for the previous generation). The battery can be recharged at 80W both over USB-C and wirelessly. There is also battery bypass, which allows you to run the phone on external power for extra-long gaming sessions. This also reduces heat and extends the battery’s life.

Besides the touchscreen, the phone has shoulder triggers with 520Hz touch sampling rate, which can be used in compatible games. There are two symmetrical 1115E speaker chambers with Dolby Atmos certification. A 0815 X-axis linear motor adds tactile feedback. For voice chat during games or just voice calls, there are three microphones that are optimized for voice pickup.

The REDMAGIC 12 Pro comes with REDMAGIC OS 12 out of the box. It is based on Android 17 but features exclusive X-Gravity gaming features. The Gaming AI companion has customizable interactions. It can offer assistance and tactical tips via voice or text. The Tactical Coach has even more real-time strategic tips for supported games.
You can make complex games less stressful with the AI-assisted play mode, which helps you keep track of daily, weekly and limited-time tasks. It also tracks your progression through the game and offers advice on character development and upgrade paths. This is available for Mobile Legends, Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail (note: this is subject to regional availability and compatibility).
The phone pushes beyond mobile gaming too – it has PC game emulation for your Steam library. This installs and plays games on the phone itself. Alternatively, you can stream a game from a compatible PC or console. Cloud gaming is also part of the X-Gravity arsenal.
The OS also caters to everyday AI tasks with Google Gemini features like conversational assistance, Circle to Search, real-time translation, AI photo search and image editing.
