While the main camera captures rather usable daylight photos, the ultra-wide disappoints with soft, underexposed at times and noisy images. You might get better results with 2x magnification. Sadly, even the 3x zoom looks soft and lacks detail and naturally inherits the processing of images without the zoom. The camera app offers quick toggle for 3x, 5x and 10x zoom by cropping out the center of the 64MP sensor. Take a look at the difference between the two shots. Some of the scenes look 'juicier' when the AI is able to recognize a certain scene. Just like the Red Magic 5G, there's a bit of inconsistency when it comes to scene detection and AI behavior.

The good news is that you get punchy colors, good amount of detail and competent dynamic range. Yet, sharpness leaves more to be desired, especially from a 64MP unit. There's visible noise in pretty much all of the scenes and sharpening halos are easy to spot around the edges of the buildings, foliage, fences and small details on the buildings. The Red Magic 5S seems to perform just as expected and doesn't deliver a much different experience compared to its predecessor - the Red Magic 5G. The Asus ROG Phone 3 is one of the examples - it's a pricey gaming smartphone but can't really keep up with the current flagship cameraphones. We don't expect great camera performance as gaming phones don't usually shine with the best snappers.

Once again, you have to go to into manual mode and tap on the ultra-wide camera toggle. For instance, there's a toggle that enables EIS when recording videos in handheld mode and the other option is to leave it without when shooting with a tripod. Still, there are a couple of new additions to the camera software compared to when we tested the Red Magic 5G. The camera menu is pretty straightforward and doesn't deviate from the usual camera app structure from other Android phones. The EXIF data show f/2.3 for the ultra-wide and f/2.5 for the macro lens.ДЄs far as the selfie camera goes, it's 8MP with f/2.0 aperture. Unfortunately, there's no enough info on the ultra-wide and the macro cameras aside from the sensor resolutions - 8MP and 2MP, respectively. The sensor itself is 1/1.72' and 0.8Вµm pixels. The main camera uses the popular 64MP sensor coupled with f/1.8 aperture. This time, we have more than one focal length on the back but still missing the telephoto lens.

FOCUS MAGIC REVIEWS UPGRADE

Although the camera configuration on the new Red Magic 5G isn't the latest and greatest, it's a significant upgrade over last year's Red Magic 3 and 3s.
