Pros

Human Checked Mobile Phone Pros&Cons With Quality Mark
Camera
The UD selfie camera, which has helped a bigger screen-to-body ratio.
Performance
The Red Magic 7 Pro is a solid-performing gaming device with flagship specs.
Display
The screen diagonal has remained 6.8", and the refresh rate has gone down from 165Hz to 120Hz.
Battery
The 7 Pro adds an extra 500 mAh over the 4,500 mAh but still uses a 65W PD 3.0 charger.
The Red Magic 7 Pro has a slightly larger battery.
Software
The built-in cooling fan is pretty helpful for sustained performance.
The big update with the 7 Pro over the 7 is higher baseline RAM and storage configurations.
Other
All of the iconic Red Magic features that make the series stand out are here as well.
Cons

Display
However, the screen diagonal has remained 6.8", and the refresh rate has gone down from 165Hz to 120Hz. [source: gsmarena]

Also, the extra nits that the standard 7 provides are much-needed given the lack of brightness boost in auto mode. [source: gsmarena]

Battery
Perhaps one of the most notable advantages of the 7 Pro over its non-Pro sibling is the battery. [source: gsmarena]

Battery life hasn't improved at all despite the extra 500 mAh. [source: gsmarena]

Other
The cooling implementation on the vanilla seems to be a tad better. At least when it comes to outer body temperatures. [source: gsmarena]

The missing extra vent on the Red Magic 7 Pro could be the culprit. [source: gsmarena]
