    Anonymous, 22 Jul 2023Now THAT's a sexy colourway for a gaming phone for sure.Transparent and the platinum so sexy. And the hidden selfie notch..it's like a chic with some baggy clothes on at the gym but once warmed up she strips down to the sports bra and leggings and she's like wowsers 🔥! Actually most about the insides of this phone are like that. I have a 10T and it's still sprinting but I'd def look at this if I was in the market.

      alexmbsw, 19 Jul 2023where is the 24g 1t is it 8s pro+Apparently it's been cancelled, I've been looking for that exact variant. Even the Chinese version would be fine since its 5G bands support 3/4 major Canadian bands.

        I can't understand why someone buying a gaming phone wants also a good camera. If you want a good camera go by iphone or galaxy s serious and pay permium for that. If I am CEO engineering in Redmagic I will detach the whole cameras, save costs and make this phone available for wider audience.

Would be incredible but soo... morenot talking about an S23 Ultra or Pixel 7 Pro's cameras, I'm talking about the base phone, even the base flagship hardware would be mind blowing, Gcam can do some heavy lifting. The regular ROG phone 7 goes for €999, if they ditch the gamer marketing, design and features then they can save a lot, just forget about the cooler, different battery and chipset placement, etc. The main sensor from Realme's 11 Pro+, ultrawide from a pixel 7 and any ok telephoto would be banger. I'm a sucker for telephotos from 2-4x so I'd rather have a telephoto than an ultrawide so yeah idk that seems like a dream phone to me.
            I mean look at the S23 Ultra, top of the line sensors (for samsung lol) and an S Pen, the other flagships have the best sensors in the market, fast charging and stuff but skimp out on the software experience. Idk, I haven't found anything as fun, convenient and easy as Samsung's UI since the S8 days

              it is funny how people forgot how beautiful was the Xperia XZ Premium Luminous Chrome model ...
              even the red metal premium from sony was forgotten . since that 2models, no other phone was more beautiful!

                  wish someone made a gaming phone with flagship cameras. For example an Asus ROG Phone 6 with its great speakers and huge battery but with the S23 or Google Pixel 7's cameras. Gcam would take care of the rest. Good software support is also necessary for a flagship experience.

Also I don't really care about camera since I don't use it much. But this is just my own perception tho. I know other people's perception would be different.
                                    Tbh I also don't game on my phone much, because I just don't like a small scren to play heavy games. Wider screen like laptop or PCs fit better for me.

                                      It's sad that metal back design is not more common. My previous phone HTC 10 also had aluminium back - obvious advantage of increased durability aside, it was also one of the best looking devices I ever owned.
