RedMagic is once again leaning into the kind of hardware excess that makes gaming phones fun, ridiculous and occasionally brilliant. The 11S Pro and 11S Pro+ have launched in China with Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 hardware, the RedCore R4 chip, serious liquid-cooling claims, high-refresh displays and very large batteries. The Pro+ pushes the battery story even harder, while global availability is now expected to be detailed on 27 May. This matters because dedicated gaming phones occupy a strange position in 2026.
Mainstream flagships are already very fast, but RedMagic keeps targeting the players who want cooling, triggers, battery life and performance controls instead of a polite all-rounder. If the global pricing lands well, ASUS and Lenovo will have another loud, fan-spinning rival to worry about.
