Nubia is one of the Chinese smartphone brands that is expected to announce a new Red Magic gaming flagship phone in October in China. Earlier today, Red Magic product manager Jiang Chao officially shared details of the upcoming Red Magic 11. While he kept certain elements under wraps, he confirmed that the new model will receive seven major improvements, addressing some of the most requested features by users.
Red Magic 11 improvements officially confirmed
According to Jiang Chao, the Red Magic 11 will bring water resistance for the first time, with IP68 certification expected. The phone will also feature a significantly improved cooling system with active fan-based technology, designed to handle the thermal demands of the latest flagship hardware. Powering the device will be Qualcomm’s newest high-end platform, expected to be the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 (aka. Snapdragon 8 Elite 2), with reports suggesting clock speeds as high as 4.61GHz on its prime cores.
Battery capacity is another highlight, with speculation pointing to an 8,000mAh unit, a notable step up from the 7,500mAh cell used in the Red Magic 10S Pro. The series will also adopt a new top-end touch control chip aimed at improving responsiveness in gaming scenarios.
On the display front, the Red Magic 11 is set to deliver a true full-screen experience by using under-display camera technology, eliminating cutouts and notches. Completing the list is a refreshed design language that follows a futuristic cyberpunk style with 3D micro-engraved patterns and RGB lighting.
