RedMagic 8S Pro Gaming Phone Revamps Its Cooling System

From CNET: The RedMagic 8S Pro is all about staying cool. The new gaming phone's international model debuts Tuesday, including many powerful features from the previous RedMagic 8 Pro while debuting a new cooling system that helps reduce heat caused by gaming sessions and charging.

The RedMagic 8S Pro, which starts at $649 and £579 (roughly AU$1,110), uses an 11-layer heat dissipation system that includes a layer of graphene under the screen. RedMagic says the graphene layer in particular helps decrease battery temperature during charging. The gaming phone still includes an internal cooling fan, and RedMagic's software will now allow for customizing how the fan runs depending on the game.

While we'll need to feel this for ourselves, any efforts to help cool the RedMagic 8S Pro down will likely be welcome. When I reviewed the RedMagic 8 Pro earlier this year, heat was quite evident during my game sessions and putting the phone into a case helped quite a bit.
