The REDMAGIC 11S Pro series officially debuts in China, powered by the overclocked Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor for ultimate gaming performance.
Key gaming features include a 144Hz notch-less AMOLED display, advanced AquaCore liquid cooling, 520Hz shoulder triggers, and an IPX8 rating.
The standard model packs a massive 8000mAh battery with 80W fast charging to ensure extended and uninterrupted gaming sessions.
The REDMAGIC 11S Pro series has been officially launched in China today. This time the company has used an overclocked version of the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 and has also increased the battery size. The series has two models, the REDMAGIC 11S Pro and 11S Pro+.
Design and Build
The design of the REDMAGIC 11S Pro is more attractive than the previous model. The AquaCore liquid cooling system is clearly visible through the transparent back panel. The phone looks premium and has also been kept with a shoulder trigger for gaming. The weight and build quality have been tried to be comfortable for gamers.
Specifications of Red Devils
It has a 6.85-inch AMOLED panel with a resolution of 2688 x 1216 pixels. There is a refresh rate of 144 Hz, peak brightness of 1800 nits and 2592 Hz PWM dimming. The screen is completely flat and the front is completely clean due to the under-display selfie camera.
In terms of performance, the REDMAGIC 11S Pro is much ahead. It uses the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 Leading Version, which is clocked up to 4.74 GHz. It has tried to improve gaming performance by combining it with REDMAGIC’s own RedCore R4 gaming chip. On paper, the performance package looks flagship-grade and clearly gaming-focused.
It has a large battery of 8000mAh. Such a large battery is really important for a gaming phone. It also has 80W fast charging support, so it charges quickly. The cooling system has also been improved this time. The combination of AquaCore liquid cooling + fan system helps a lot in controlling heat during long sessions. This is a signature feature of REDMAGIC that has been improved over the previous one.
The phone will run RedMagic OS based on Android 16. On the other hand you see 520Hz touch sampling rate, IPX8 rating, Dual speakers and a number of software features have been added for gaming optimization.
Usually, RedMagic phones are usually not known for top-tier camera performance. There is a dual camera setup on the back – main 50 megapixels (f/1.9, 1/1.55-inch sensor, with OIS) and ultrawide 50 megapixels. On the front, there is an under-display 16 megapixel camera. Although this is a gaming phone, it is decent for everyday photo taking and video recording.
REDMAGIC 11S Pro Price
The standard REDMAGIC 11S Pro base variant starts at 5,499 yuan (about €710). Higher variants and the Pro+ model are priced between 6,999 and 7,999 yuan (around €900–€1,030).
The REDMAGIC 11S Pro is clearly aimed at hardcore gamers. The combination of Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 and 8000 mAh battery will be attractive to many. But as always with gaming phones, sustained performance, heat control and real battery endurance will decide whether it truly stands out.
