The mobile gaming market has been heating up lately, thanks in part to the emergence of cloud gaming, as well as dedicated handheld devices. Riding this trend, gaming phone companies like REDMAGIC have carved out their own unique space, offering devices that pull double duty as daily-use phones and optimized gaming machines. Starting today, you can get your hands on REDMAGIC’s latest mobile gaming powerhouse, the 6S Pro.
Hands-on with the RedMagic 6S Pro Ghost's eye-popping transparent back and RGB fan
There's no denying this is a gaming phone, but it sure looks slick
We learned on Monday that RedMagic's latest gaming phone is coming to the US, Canada, and most of Europe on September 27th. RedMagic might not be a household name, but the company has been releasing purpose-built gaming phones in the West for a while now, and each iteration brings something new, and this is especially true for the RedMagic 6S Pro, all thanks to the new Ghost model that offers a transparent back and an RGB illuminated internal fan. This is one slick-looking device, and while the gamer aesthetic might not appeal to everyone, it's nice to see RedMagic leaning into the niche market of gaming phones with a flourish.

The RedMagic brand may not ring a bell for many outside the mobile gaming community, but the Nubia brand has made a name for itself by selling affordable high-end gaming smartphones. And that's exactly the niche the company is aiming its next device at again, the RedMagic 6S Pro. It's a step-up compared to the RedMagic 6R and 6, though the similarities are striking outside a few key specifications.
