Today (May 18th), REDMAGIC officially launched its new REDMAGIC 11S Pro series flagship gaming phone in the Chinese market. As a representative work for the brand's eighth anniversary, the new REDMAGIC 11S Pro series brings comprehensive upgrades in overclocking performance, active cooling, true full-screen display, e-sports design, and AI gaming experience. Continuing the brand philosophy of "Win More Games," it not only pushes the limits of hardware specifications but also positions itself as a complete portable e-sports platform.
Core hardware and next-generation liquid cooling architecture
To ensure absolute dominance in gaming, the REDMAGIC 11S Pro series has undergone a deep overhaul in core computing and thermal management:
• Ultimate Overclocking Power:The entire series is equipped with a specially tuned version of Qualcomm's flagship platform, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 Leading Version, with a clock speed of up to 4.74GHz, specifically tuned to handle heavy workloads such as high-end graphics rendering and super-resolution enhancement.
• Dedicated gaming chip and AI scheduling:It combines Red Magic's self-developed RedCore R4 gaming chip with the Energy CUBE 3.0 system. The RedCore R4 is dedicated to core gaming functions such as touch optimization, image enhancement, and rendering acceleration; while the Energy CUBE 3.0 uses AI frame rate sensing to dynamically allocate resources, balancing performance and power consumption.
• Upgraded AquaCore cooling system:Featuring a built-in TurboFan cooling fan with a speed of up to 24000 RPM, it not only keeps noise levels below 30dB but also boasts IPX8 water resistance for everyday use. The system also combines a 4D VC cooling architecture with composite liquid metal 3.0 technology. The REDMAGIC 11S Pro, in particular, employs a multi-layered hybrid liquid cooling architecture inspired by AI servers to ensure stable performance during extended gaming sessions.
Hole-free true full-screen display and flat e-sports aesthetics
Aesthetics and visual experience have always been Red Magic's forte, and the REDMAGIC 11S Pro series is no exception:
• The ultimate true full-screen display:It features a 6.85-inch BOE X10 AMOLED screen. With an ultra-narrow 1.25mm bezel, it achieves a screen-to-body ratio of up to 95.3%. The screen boasts a 1.5K (2688 × 1216) resolution and a 144Hz high refresh rate.
• UDC under-display camera technology:Equipped with a 1600-megapixel under-display camera, along with an upgraded display driver chip and high-transmittance circuit architecture, it effectively reduces visual interference in the camera area, creating an immersive experience without notches or punch holes.
• Flat-screen design and exclusive color scheme:Despite its large built-in battery and complex cooling system, the back of the device remains completely flat with no lens protrusion. The REDMAGIC 11S Pro is available in Matte Black and Matte Silver; while the higher-end REDMAGIC 11S Pro+ offers Nightfreeze and Subzero options and features customizable RGB lighting effects (including the shoulder buttons, logo, and fan area).
Large battery capacity and professional-grade e-sports controls
Addressing the key concerns of gamers—battery life and precise controls—Red Magic offers extremely powerful hardware specifications:
• Battery and fast charging configuration:The REDMAGIC 11S Pro features the brand's largest-ever 8000mAh dual-cell battery and supports 80W wired fast charging. The REDMAGIC 11S Pro+, on the other hand, uses a 7500mAh dual-cell battery and emphasizes faster 120W wired fast charging and up to 80W wireless charging.
• Control and feedback:It adopts the Synaptics touch solution and MagicTouch 4.0 algorithm. The screen has an instantaneous touch sampling rate of up to 3000Hz and a multi-finger sampling rate of 360Hz, and supports wet-hand touch. In addition, it is equipped with independent IC gaming shoulder buttons with a touch sampling rate of 520Hz.
• Immersive audio-visual systems:It features dual 1115E + 1015 speakers and a 3.5mm headphone jack, and is DTS:X Ultra certified. The system runs REDMAGIC OS 11.5, and the built-in Mora AI assistant provides tactical coaching and interactive assistance. The device also supports cross-platform video projection up to 1080P/144Hz or 4K/144Hz.
Expanding the esports ecosystem and listing information
In addition to the phone itself, Red Magic also unveiled a number of ecosystem peripheral products. These include the GS09 carbon fiber gaming mouse, which weighs only about 49 grams (equipped with a PAW3950 sensor, supporting 8K polling rate and 30000 DPI positioning effect), a new color version of the REDMAGIC Cooler 8 Pro heat sink, and the Dao Energy Card Pro magnetic power bank.
The official announcement also teased the upcoming global launch of the REDMAGIC Astra 2 gaming tablet (known as REDMAGIC Gaming Tablet 5 Pro in the Chinese market).
