REDMAGIC 12 Pro Launch Sets Global Price at USD 899

The REDMAGIC 12 Pro launches with a starting price of USD 899, set against a sale window that opens in the middle of November.

REDMAGIC confirmed the global release for November 3, 2026. The phone arrives in 12GB with 256GB, 16GB with 512GB, and 16GB with 1TB configurations, sold through redmagic.gg and selected retail partners.

We earlier reported that REDMAGIC would sell the China-only RedMagic 12 Pro+ under the 12 Pro name globally, and this release confirms that plan. The two share a chipset and a cooling system, though the global model carries different charging and trigger figures.

Cooling and sustained performance

The Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 runs beside a dedicated RedCore R5 gaming chip. AquaCore Cooling System 3.0 combines dual-loop liquid cooling and RGB lighting with a 25,500 RPM fan, an enhanced vapor chamber, and Liquid Metal 4.0.

The RGB lighting sits behind a transparent rear panel, part of what REDMAGIC calls a refined transparent gaming design.

Display and endurance

The 6.85-inch 1.5K OLED panel uses an under-display true full-screen design that the brand calls an industry first at 185Hz. It reaches 5,000 nits of local peak brightness, and samples touch at 5,000Hz.

Both display figures matter more than the panel size for shooters and racing titles, where the gap between a tap and an on-screen response shows up well before frame rate does.

An 8,400mAh battery supports 80W fast charging and wireless charging. The frame carries 520Hz shoulder triggers, and Dolby Atmos-certified speakers sit alongside REDMAGIC OS 12 on Android 17.

Price and sale dates

Global pricing starts at USD 899, and REDMAGIC lists the euro figure at the same 899, with the higher memory tiers priced by region. Early Bird vouchers run from November 12 to 17; Early Bird buyers can order a day ahead on November 17, and the global open sale opens on November 18.

Early Bird participants also receive a complimentary 80W fast charger and an exclusive REDMAGIC-branded item. The brand says regional pricing will be published on its official site, which leaves the Philippine figure unannounced for now.

The China-market RedMagic 12 Pro+ starts at CNY 6,999, or about PHP 65,900, based on GP’s October report. That figure remains the closest guide for local buyers, even though the two models differ on charging and triggers.

The 12 Pro launch therefore reads as a pricing story before a specification one, because the hardware has already been documented in China. The open question is what the phone costs once it reaches Philippine shelves, and that answer has no date yet.
