The Red Magic 11S Pro gaming smartphone, which recently launched in China, is now headed to global markets with a giant battery, wild cooling hardware, and a display without a hole for the front camera. Open sales begin June 10 through Red Magic’s official website and selected retail partners.
Cooling is still the main attraction
Like previous models, Red Magic has focused heavily on cooling its Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip to keep it from throttling. The brand has fitted the phone with its upgraded AquaCore Cooling System, which features a 24,000 RPM fan, liquid cooling, piezoelectric ceramic micropumps, tiny liquid channels, and a large vapor chamber.
This setup moves heat away from the processor and battery, helping the phone hold its performance during long gaming sessions. The liquid system is visible through the transparent back, giving the 11S Pro the look of a compact gaming PC rather than a regular flagship phone.
It also has a RedCore R4 gaming chip that supports visuals, audio, haptics, performance tuning, and touch response.
A big display with a large battery
The Red Magic 11S Pro has a 2688 x 1216 BOE X10 under-display screen with no notch or cutout. It supports a 144Hz refresh rate, up to 1,800 nits of global peak brightness, and a touch sampling rate of 3,000Hz. The phone also gets 520Hz shoulder triggers for faster in-game controls.
A 7,500mAh battery powers the device, with support for up to 80W wireless charging. It can reverse charge other devices through both wired and wireless methods. For cameras, the phone includes a 50MP main camera with OIS, a 50MP ultrawide camera, and a 16MP front camera. It runs Red Magic OS 11.5 based on Android 16.
Pricing starts at $849 in North America and €799 in Europe for the Nightfreeze 12GB + 256GB model. The 16GB + 512GB Nightfreeze and Subzero models cost $949 in North America and €899 in Europe. Early Bird vouchers will be available from June 3 to June 9, followed by Early Bird access on June 9 and open sales on June 10.
