When it comes to the world of gaming phones, it’s easy to get swept up by the sheer number of options available and the dynamic market size. While choosing a specific phone is a deeply personal and circumstantial decision, you need to know what can be considered a good product beforehand. REDMAGIC has recently released its massive 10 Pro gaming phone and has already made headlines across the globe for its immaculate performance and superior gaming capabilities. In this blog article, we go a step further and see how the REDMAGIC 10 Pro compares to its biggest competitors so far.

 

Performance That Packs a Punch

 

Now, when it comes to comparisons, performance is often the biggest factor for most users – whether gaming or not. The REDMAGIC 10 Pro features a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite chip that provides lightning-fast speeds and impeccable multitasking capabilities. This is because of the upgraded UFS 4.1 Pro and REDMAGIC’s performance tech delivering 3% faster read speeds and 10% quicker write speeds for seamless multitasking and faster load times. 

 

Additionally, the REDMAGIC 10 Pro uses its first AI-powered chip - the Red Core R3. This revolutionary element was co-developed with Qualcomm to elevate visuals with double frame insertion, 2K upscaling, and AI-driven stabilization, while smart power and thermal management ensure peak performance.

 

While this might all seem like a lot of power generating a lot of heat, the REDMAGIC 10 Pro keeps its cool with a cutting-edge ICE-X cooling system. This multi-layered thermal solution ensures effective heat control during demanding gameplay through the use of the world’s first alloy-based solid-state liquid metal – offering safer and more durable thermal conductivity to transfer heat efficiently from the vapor chamber (VC) to the fan.

 

American YouTuber and influencer, Marques Brownlee, hosted his 2024 Smartphone Awards to give merits to different phones according to the categories they stood out in. To no surprise, the REDMAGIC 10 Pro came out as the winner in the Best Battery category. Brownless commended the phone’s new Snapdragon 8 Elite chip and its incredible 7,000-milliamp-hour battery. He went on to compliment the 10 Pro’s 100W peak charging capabilities, bypass charging, and battery maintenance features – ultimately giving the REDMAGIC 10 Pro the title of “Battery Champ 2024”.

 

The REDMAGIC 10 Pro won Brownlee’s Best Battery category against the VIVO X200 Pro, Oppo Find X8 Pro, Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, and ROG Phone 9. 

 

Now, when it comes to comparing the performance of the REDMAGIC 10 Pro, it’s easy to see how the consensus has gone. Simon Hill noted that one of the biggest advantages of the powerhouse device is its performance capabilities. In his Wired review, he played a mix of Diablo Immortal, 80 Days Around the World, and Asphalt 8 for several hours on the REDMAGIC 10 Pro, and it “never broke a sweat.”

 

In an IGN review of the phone, Mark Knapp described the phone’s performance as “beastly” – stating that the REDMAGIC 10 Pro is simply the best he’s seen, “topping even the Asus ROG Phone 9, the OnePlus 13, and the iPhone 16 Pro Max.” Knapp continued to state that the phone puts up solid numbers in Geekbench 6, where its 3077-point single-core score only marginally trails the ROG Phone 9 and iPhone 16 Pro Max. 

 

To be more precise in the comparisons, however, TechNick put the REDMAGIC 10 Pro through a series of detailed benchmark tests against the OnePlus 13, iQOO 13, Vivo X200 Pro, and the OPPO Find X8 Pro. To no surprise, the REDMAGIC 10 Pro placed as the best overall  – easily beating out the competition in terms of the Geekbench 6 Multi-core Results, the 3DMARK Wild Life Extreme Scores and FPS Results, the 3DMARK Solar Bay Scores and FPS Results, and the 3DMARK Steel Nomad Light Scores and FPS Results.

According to him, the 10 Pro’s 6.85” screen rivals the best and beats them where it counts.
