RedMagic 11 Pro Series: Unveiling 2025’s Ultimate Gaming Phone Power

RedMagic 11 Pro Series Shows How Powerful Gaming Phones Can Be in 2025

Nubia has officially unleashed its latest gaming titans, the RedMagic 11 Pro and RedMagic 11 Pro+, in China. These aren’t just phones; they’re a statement, challenging the likes of Asus ROG Phone with aggressive hardware, cutting-edge cooling, and a design that screams “I’m here to dominate.” Get ready to see what the pinnacle of gaming phones looks like in 2025.

Design and Display

The RedMagic 11 Pro series boasts a bold, futuristic design with sharp lines and incredibly thin 1.25mm bezels. Both models feature a stunning 6.85-inch BOE X10 AMOLED display, offering a crisp 1.5K resolution and a silky-smooth 144Hz refresh rate. What truly sets it apart? An integrated under-display front camera, providing an uninterrupted, expansive viewing experience with an impressive 95.3% screen-to-body ratio.

These powerhouses are 8.9mm thick and weigh 230 grams, feeling substantial in hand. The standard RedMagic 11 Pro is available in sleek Dark Knight and elegant Silver Winged War God finishes. For those who crave extra flair, the RedMagic 11 Pro+ comes in a regular Dark Knight variant, plus two transparent editions: Transparent Silver Wing and Transparent Dark Knight. These transparent models even include customizable LED lighting on the rear panel, letting you personalize your gaming rig.

Internals and Software

At the heart of both devices lies Qualcomm’s flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 Elite chipset, paired with Nubia’s proprietary R4 gaming chip. This dynamic duo ensures blistering frame rates and incredibly efficient thermal management, even during the most demanding gaming marathons. Storage and memory options are expansive, ranging up to a staggering 24GB of LPDDR5T RAM and 1TB of UFS 4.1 Pro storage, cementing their position as some of the most powerful Android smartphones available.

To keep performance consistently high, both models incorporate an advanced cooling system featuring an inbuilt active cooling fan and a liquid metal VC chamber. The RedMagic 11 Pro+ takes cooling a step further, integrating a pulsating water cooling engine for unparalleled heat dissipation – a standout feature rarely seen in smartphones, ensuring peak performance under any load.

Running on RedMagic OS 11, the phones come packed with gaming-focused optimizations and AI-driven performance enhancements, all built on top of Android.

Cameras

While gaming is the star of the show, the RedMagic 11 Pro series doesn’t skimp on camera capabilities. Both models feature a consistent dual-camera setup on the rear: a high-resolution 50MP primary sensor and a versatile 50MP ultrawide lens. The front boasts a 16MP camera discreetly placed beneath the display, maintaining the full-screen aesthetic without any distracting punch-holes or notches. This configuration ensures capable performance for everyday photography needs, even if it’s not the primary focus.

Battery and Pricing

Battery life is crucial for gaming, and the RedMagic 11 Pro delivers with a humongous 8,000 mAh battery, supported by 80W wired fast charging. The RedMagic 11 Pro+, while featuring a slightly smaller 7,500 mAh battery, compensates with blazing-fast 120W wired charging and adds the convenience of 80W wireless charging, offering more flexibility for users prioritizing quick top-ups and cable-free convenience.

In terms of pricing, the RedMagic 11 Pro starts at approximately $700 for the 12GB RAM and 256GB storage version, while the 16GB RAM and 512GB storage model is priced at $800. The RedMagic 11 Pro+ begins at the same $800 for its 12GB + 256GB variant in the Dark Knight color. The transparent edition with 16GB + 512GB storage is priced at $910. The top-tier transparent Silver Wing version with 24GB RAM and 1TB storage comes in at a premium $1,080.
