Description
REDMAGIC 12 Pro NX819J (Global)
The REDMAGIC 12 Pro is a Global gaming smartphone with a Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 processor, active dual-loop cooling and a 6.85-inch full-screen AMOLED display. Its 8,400 mAh typical battery supports wired and wireless charging at up to 80 W. PDAPlaza offers memory and color configurations so you can match the phone to your storage needs.
Key features
- Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 with a CPU rated up to 5.0 GHz, a RedCore R5 gaming chip and a G1 display control chip.
- AquaCore Cooling System 3.0 combines dual-loop liquid cooling, a vapor chamber, Liquid Metal 4.0 and a 25,500 RPM turbo fan.
- 6.85-inch BOE X11 AMOLED display with 2688 × 1216 resolution and up to 185 Hz refresh rate in supported games.
- 8,400 mAh typical battery with up to 80 W wired and wireless fast charging, plus wired and wireless reverse charging.
- 520 Hz shoulder touchpads, an X-axis linear motor and dual 1115E stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos.
- 50 MP main camera with optical stabilization, a 50 MP ultra-wide camera and a 16 MP under-display front camera.
Processing power with active cooling
The 2+6 Oryon CPU architecture works with an Adreno GPU, while the RedCore R5 gaming chip and G1 display chip handle dedicated gaming and display functions. The CPU's 5.0 GHz figure is a rated maximum; actual frequency changes with workload, temperature and power management.
AquaCore Cooling System 3.0 moves heat through dual liquid loops, a large vapor chamber and a through-flow air duct. A 25,500 RPM fan, embedded composite Liquid Metal 4.0 and multiple conductive layers support heat transfer around the hardware. The visible cooling system also includes RGB lighting.
A full-screen display for supported high-refresh gaming
The BOE X11 AMOLED panel combines a 6.85-inch viewing area with 2688 × 1216 resolution, 100% DCI-P3 color coverage and HDR10 and HLG support. Its ninth-generation under-display camera keeps the front free of a conventional camera cutout, with 0.96 mm bezels and a 96.3% screen-to-body ratio.
Touch sampling reaches 5,000 Hz instantaneously and averages 500 Hz. The display supports a refresh rate of up to 185 Hz, but game support depends on optimization, game versions, regional releases and in-game conditions; some features require adaptation or a gradual rollout. A 185 Hz display does not mean every game runs at 185 frames per second.
Battery capacity and charging flexibility
The single-cell battery has a typical capacity of 8,400 mAh. Both wired and wireless fast charging support up to 80 W, and reverse charging can supply compatible accessories over a cable or wirelessly. Charge Separation, also called bypass charging, is supported for gaming while connected to power.
Actual charging performance depends on settings, battery condition, ambient temperature and usage. The standard package includes the phone, a transparent case, a Type-C cable, a SIM tool and documentation.
Dedicated controls, sound and everyday connections
Shoulder touchpads sample at 520 Hz, while the 0815 X-axis linear motor supplies haptic feedback. Dual 1115E stereo speakers support Dolby Atmos. A long press of the Magic Key opens or exits GameSpace by default, and the key can be customized for camera, flashlight, recording, translation or sound-mode functions.
Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6.0, NFC and dual nano-SIM support cover daily connectivity. USB 3.2 Gen 2 and DisplayPort support video output and second-screen use, while an IR blaster provides compatible appliance control. This model does not support eSIM and has no 3.5 mm headphone jack.
Cameras, software and protection
The rear camera pair combines a 50 MP main camera with optical image stabilization and a 50 MP ultra-wide camera. A 16 MP front camera sits beneath the display. REDMAGIC OS 12 is based on Android 17. Google Gemini, Circle to Search, real-time translation and calls with subtitles add software assistance for daily use.
The phone carries IP68 and IP69 ratings, while the turbo fan is rated IPX8 for water resistance only. Resistance can decline with wear, and the independent air duct may admit dust during operation without affecting core functions under normal use. Do not charge the phone while it is wet.
Configurations and regional details
Choose Nightfreeze with 12GB/256GB, 16GB/512GB or 16GB/1TB, or Subzero with 16GB/512GB or 16GB/1TB. In these selector labels, the first capacity is physical RAM and the second is internal storage. At PDAPlaza, each listed combination is a separate selectable configuration within this Global model.
Memory technology reaches up to LPDDR5X Ultra Pro and UFS 4.1 Pro. Available storage is lower than the stated capacity because the operating system and applications occupy space. Global edition does not establish compatibility with every carrier; compare the published bands with your carrier's requirements.
