About ZTE Nubia Red Magic 8 Pro 5G

The ZTE Nubia Red Magic 8 Pro 5G presents a sleek gaming‑focused silhouette, measuring 76.35 mm wide, 163.98 mm tall and just under 9.5 mm thick while tipping the scales at 228 grams. Its single‑SIM tray keeps the frame clean, and the device is wrapped in a finish that highlights the bold aesthetic associated with the Red Magic line. At the front lies a 6.8‑inch AM‑OLED panel that delivers vivid colours and deep contrast, with a resolution of 1116 by 2480 pixels that ensures sharp visuals for both fast‑paced games and multimedia consumption.

Under the hood, the phone runs Google Android 13 (Tiramisu) and is equipped with 12 GiB of RAM, providing ample headroom for multitasking and demanding applications. Powering the experience is a substantial 6000 mAh battery, aimed at supporting extended play sessions without frequent recharging. Together, these specifications position the device as a capable contender for users who prioritize display quality, memory capacity and endurance in a compact, single‑SIM smartphone.

This variant

The Top Edition bumps the memory up to 16 GiB, a noticeable increase over the base model’s 12 GiB.

Storage jumps to 512 GB, and the chassis is measured at 9.47 mm thick, giving a precise figure where the base description only noted “just under 9.5 mm”.

Being a Global Top Edition, it targets worldwide markets unlike the China‑only Standard and Premium models, and it distinguishes itself from the other Global Premium 256 GB variant (12 GiB RAM) and the CN editions (8‑12 GiB RAM, 128‑256 GB storage) by offering both higher RAM and larger storage while retaining the same configuration as the base model.
