Google has released Android 17 for Pixel devices, and soon other brands will begin rolling out the update. However, there’s a lot of uncertainty among users about whether their devices will receive this major upgrade. So, we have prepared a brand-by-brand list of devices that will receive the Android 17 update, including Samsung, OnePlus, Motorola, Xiaomi, and more.

Except for Google, no brand has announced the list of eligible devices for the Android 17 upgrade. So, we reviewed the current update policy for every brand to prepare the list. Since it’s based on the update policy, devices on the list are almost confirmed to receive the update.

Choosing a mid-range smartphone in 2026 has become tricky, as an ongoing RAM and storage pricing crisis is forcing companies to adjust their prices without warning.

In this unpredictable market, two devices are dominating the conversation: Xiaomi‘s recently launched Redmi Turbo 5 and the OnePlus Nord 6, which has been available for over two months.

To help you navigate these shifting value propositions, here is a direct comparison of what each phone actually delivers in day-to-day use.

Design and Display

The Redmi Turbo 5 and OnePlus Nord 6 take different approaches to their physical footprint. The Redmi Turbo 5 is the more compact of the two, featuring a 6.59-inch 1.5K OLED display. Xiaomi has opted for a metal frame and a glass back, keeping the weight at a manageable 204 grams. It feels balanced in the hand, and the addition of a dynamic RGB Pixel Matrix around the camera module gives it a distinct look without being overly flashy. The display offers a 120Hz refresh rate and a peak brightness of 3500 nits, making it excellent for outdoor visibility.

The OnePlus Nord 6, meanwhile, is a noticeably larger device. It features a 6.78-inch 1.5K AMOLED screen with a variable refresh rate that scales up to 165Hz. This higher refresh rate is a direct nod to mobile gamers looking for the smoothest possible animations. OnePlus also includes its Aqua Touch 2.0 technology, which ensures the screen remains responsive even if your fingers or the display are wet.

Durability is a strong suit for both phones. They both carry an impressive array of IP ratings (IP66, IP68, IP69, and IP69K), meaning they are highly resistant to dust and can survive submersion as well as high-pressure water jets. OnePlus goes a step further by including MIL-STD-810H military-grade certification for drop and environmental stress resistance, making it the slightly more rugged option.

Performance

Under the hood, both phones are well-equipped to handle demanding tasks, but they rely on different silicon. The Redmi Turbo 5 is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8500-Ultra, built on a 4nm process.

Xiaomi has paired this with a large 5300 mm² vapor chamber cooling system to sustain performance during long sessions. In practical terms, this phone will easily handle multitasking, heavy apps, and gaming without noticeable slowdowns.

The OnePlus Nord 6 uses the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 platform. OnePlus has explicitly positioned this phone for gaming, and the hardware reflects that.

Alongside the processor, the Nord 6 includes a 3200Hz touch sampling rate for faster input response and a custom Touch Reflex Chip. If you spend a significant amount of time playing competitive titles like BGMI or Call of Duty: Mobile, the Nord 6’s hardware is specifically tuned to give you a slight edge in responsiveness.

Battery and Charging

Battery technology has seen a major leap this year, and both phones benefit from it. The Redmi Turbo 5 houses a 7,560mAh battery, which is substantially larger than the industry average.

It supports 100W wired fast charging, allowing you to top up that massive cell relatively quickly, and it even includes 27W reverse wired charging to power up your accessories.

OnePlus, however, has integrated a 9,000mAh silicon-carbon battery into the Nord 6. By using silicon, they managed to increase the energy density without making the phone excessively thick (it sits at 8.5mm). While its 80W charging is slightly slower than the Redmi’s, the Nord 6 includes bypass charging.

Cameras and Software

If you are looking for a camera-first smartphone, neither of these is likely your top choice, but both provide very capable setups for everyday photography. Both feature a 50MP primary sensor with OIS, a Sony IMX882 on the Redmi and a Sony LYTIA-600 on the OnePlus. These are paired with standard 8MP ultra-wide lenses. You can expect sharp, vibrant photos in good lighting from both devices.

The software experience is where the two phones diverge significantly. Both run Android 16 and guarantee four years of OS updates and six years of security patches. Xiaomi’s HyperOS 3 focuses on smooth animations, system optimization, and a clean interface.

OnePlus’s OxygenOS 16 leans heavily into artificial intelligence. The Nord 6 features deep integration with Google Gemini and includes a suite of AI tools, such as real-time call translation, an AI writer, and various photo editing features like AI Eraser and Unblur. If you find yourself relying on AI tools for productivity, the Nord 6 offers a more integrated experience.

Pricing

The decision between these two phones ultimately comes down to your budget and how you plan to use the device.

The Redmi Turbo 5 is priced at ₹37,999 for the 8GB/256GB model and ₹40,999 for the 12GB version. It is a well-rounded smartphone that offers excellent performance, a bright display, and a very large battery in a relatively compact form factor. It provides great value for the price.

The OnePlus Nord 6 recently saw a price hike, now starting at ₹42,999 for the 8GB/256GB model and going up to ₹47,999 for the 12GB variant. This ₹5,000 to ₹7,000 premium buys you a larger screen with a 165Hz refresh rate, a bigger 9,000mAh battery, specific gaming optimizations, and a suite of built-in AI features.

Which one should you buy?

If you want a reliable, high-performing phone for everyday use and want to keep your spending under ₹40,000, the Redmi Turbo 5 is the more practical choice. However, if mobile gaming is a priority, or if you value having the largest possible battery and built-in AI productivity tools, the OnePlus Nord 6 justifies its higher price tag.

The post Is Redmi Turbo 5 Better Than OnePlus Nord 6? appeared first on Gizmochina.

OnePlus is stepping up its game in India’s super-competitive budget smartphone segment with the upcoming OnePlus N6, the very first phone in its all-new N Series. The company is putting a massive spotlight on what could be its biggest strength: an enormous battery that promises multi-day usage for people who just want their phone to keep going without constant charging.

In a recent announcement on X, OnePlus confirmed that the N6 comes with a hefty 8,000mAh battery, the same high-capacity cell used in the recently launched Nord CE 6. According to them, this should easily deliver up to three full days of typical use on a single charge. Even better, they’re promising seven years of battery health, so it should stay strong without degrading too quickly over time.

This heavy focus on endurance makes a lot of sense for the N Series. It’s positioned as an affordable lineup, expected to sit between ₹18,000 and ₹25,000, mainly targeting Gen Z buyers who want solid OnePlus experience without spending mid-range or flagship money. It sits below the Nord Series (which usually goes from ₹25,000 to ₹50,000).

Design-wise, the N6 looks pretty clean and modern, closely following the Nord CE 6 with some small tweaks. You’re getting a flat back panel, a square camera module in the top-left corner, and centered branding. On the front, there’s a flat display with a centered punch-hole and somewhat thicker bezels, totally understandable at this price. Buttons are on the right side, and the bottom has the usual USB-C port, speaker, and SIM tray.

With the launch set for June 30, we should get more details soon on the chipset, display, cameras, and other specs. Since it shares the battery with the Nord CE 6, it’ll probably offer similar real-world stamina while keeping other features tuned for this more budget-friendly spot.

If the phone delivers decent performance and everyday features alongside this endurance, the N6 could be a real contender against phones from Redmi and Samsung in the sub-₹25,000 range.

The post OnePlus N6 claimed to offer three-day battery life thanks to 8,000mAh cell appeared first on Gizmochina.

OnePlus has silently unveiled the OnePlus Pad 3 Pro in China. The new tablet arrives as the successor to the OnePlus Pad 2 Pro, which debuted in the country in May 2025. While the hardware shares similarities with the globally available OnePlus Pad 4, the latest model is aimed specifically at the Chinese market. Read on to learn what the tablet brings to the table.

OnePlus Pad 3 Pro specifications and features

The OnePlus Pad 3 Pro features a 13.2-inch LCD panel with a 7:5 aspect ratio, 3392 x 2400 pixel resolution, and refresh rate support ranging from 30Hz to 144Hz. The display reaches up to 1,000 nits of peak brightness and covers 98 percent of the DCI-P3 color gamut. Under the hood, the tablet is powered by Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, which is currently the most potent chip from Qualcomm.

The device is available with up to 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and up to 512GB of UFS 4.1 storage. It runs ColorOS 16 and includes productivity-focused features such as PC-level WPS Office, file management tools, cross-device screen sharing, keyboard and mouse sharing, and several AI-powered tools for note-taking, translation, and content creation.

For photography and video calls, the tablet includes a 13-megapixel rear camera and an 8-megapixel front-facing camera. Keeping the lights on is a 13,380mAh battery with support for 67W fast charging. It comes with other features, such as Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, USB 3.2 Gen 1, eight speakers, dual microphones, face unlock support, and stylus support. Lastly, it has a slim 5.94mm chassis that weighs approximately 672 grams.

OnePlus Pad 3 Pro price and availability

The OnePlus Pad 3 Pro is offered in Dark Brown and Light Green color options. Pricing starts at 4,399 Yuan (around $650) for the 12GB + 256GB variant, while the 12GB + 512GB model costs 4,899 Yuan (around $725). The top-end 16GB + 512GB edition is priced at 5,399 yuan (around $800).

The OnePlus Pad 3 Pro is the brand’s most powerful tablet yet, featuring Qualcomm’s latest flagship chipset and premium hardware. The catch is that it appears to be limited to China, while the globally branded OnePlus Pad 4 has only been launched in India so far, leaving other markets without either model.

The post OnePlus Pad 3 Pro launches as the brand’s most powerful tablet, but there’s a catch appeared first on Gizmochina.

OnePlus has quietly introduced a new variant of the OnePlus 15R in India, giving buyers another option in the performance-focused smartphone lineup. While the handset remains unchanged in terms of design and hardware, the latest configuration increases the available memory, catering to users who need more headroom for gaming, multitasking and AI-powered workloads.

New variant pricing and availability

The new OnePlus 15R (review) variant pairs 16GB RAM with 512GB storage and is priced at Rs 61,999 (~$655). It joins the existing 12GB+256GB and 12GB+512GB models, which are currently available at Rs 54,999 (~$580) and Rs 59,999 (~$635), respectively. The smartphone can be purchased through the company’s online store as well as Amazon India.

The handset continues to be offered in Charcoal Black, Mint Breeze and Electric Violet colour options. The launch of a higher-memory version comes at a time when several brands are limiting RAM configurations due to rising memory costs across the industry. Despite that trend, OnePlus has opted to expand the 15R lineup with a more capable option.

Apart from the RAM upgrade, the OnePlus 15R retains the same specifications as the existing variants. It features a 6.83-inch AMOLED display with a 1272 x 2800 resolution, a 165Hz refresh rate and Gorilla Glass 7i protection. The phone is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset and is paired with up to 512GB of UFS 4.1 storage.

For photography, the device includes a 50-megapixel primary camera with optical image stabilisation, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide sensor and a 32-megapixel front camera. It packs a 7,400mAh battery with support for 80W wired fast charging and runs OxygenOS 16 based on Android 16. The smartphone also carries IP66, IP68, IP69 and IP69K ratings for dust and water resistance.

The post While rivals play it safe, the OnePlus 15R gets a 16GB RAM upgrade appeared first on Gizmochina.

OnePlus is giving its popular Nord audio lineup a fresh update with the new Nord Buds 4. They’re packing in some useful features, like strong noise cancellation and long battery life, while still keeping things affordable.

The company has now officially shared the key specs ahead of the June 25 launch in India. The big highlight is the up to 52dB active noise cancellation (ANC), which should do a solid job blocking out noise whether you’re commuting, working, or just trying to focus. Inside, the earbuds pack 12mm titanium-plated dynamic drivers that promise punchy bass and clear audio for music, movies, and calls.

Each earbud is super lightweight at just 4.3g and has an ergonomic design meant for comfortable long sessions. They also support 3D spatial audio and game spatial sound effects, which should make listening feel more immersive. You’ll be able to pick them up in two cool colors: Astral Teal (a nice cyan shade) and the classic Stellar Black.

Battery life looks like one of the strongest points. With the charging case, you’re looking at up to 54 hours of total playback. And if you’re in a rush, 10 minutes of fast charging gives you around 11 hours of use, which is super handy for busy days.

Pricing hasn’t been revealed yet, but these are clearly aimed at the competitive mid-range TWS segment. They build on the Nord series’ reputation for offering good value, and they should pair nicely with OnePlus phones through the HeyMelody app for smoother controls and possible software tweaks.

Overall, with solid ANC, good drivers, lightweight comfort, and marathon battery life, the Nord Buds 4 seem ready to take on rivals from Redmi and CMF. As the June 25 launch gets closer, it’ll be interesting to see how they actually perform in real life and whether they deliver that sweet spot of performance, comfort, and price that budget-conscious users are looking for.

Design and Display

Build and Feel

The Motorola Edge 70 Pro+ focuses on comfort and practicality with its eco-leather back, Gorilla Glass 7i protection, and IP68/IP69 certification. The textured rear panel provides extra grip and helps reduce fingerprints, making the phone feel more user-friendly during daily use. Motorola also includes MIL-STD-810H compliance, adding an extra layer of durability for users who spend time outdoors.

The OnePlus 15R takes a more premium approach with its aluminum frame and glass construction. It also carries IP68/IP69K protection and offers eSIM support in selected variants. The overall design feels more flagship-oriented, with materials that deliver a more refined appearance.

Display Quality

Motorola offers a 6.78-inch AMOLED display with a 144Hz refresh rate, HDR10+, and an impressive 5200-nit peak brightness. Colors appear vibrant and punchy, making media consumption highly enjoyable.

The OnePlus 15R counters with a larger 6.83-inch AMOLED panel featuring a 165Hz refresh rate, Dolby Vision, HDR10+, HDR Vivid support, and Ultra HDR compatibility. While both displays are excellent, OnePlus delivers a slightly richer visual experience for gaming and HDR content.

Verdict

The Motorola Edge 70 Pro+ feels more practical and comfortable, while the OnePlus 15R looks and feels more premium. For display quality alone, the OnePlus 15R takes a narrow lead thanks to its higher refresh rate and broader HDR support.

Specifications Including Battery

Performance

Performance is where the gap between these two phones becomes noticeable. The Motorola Edge 70 Pro+ uses the MediaTek Dimensity 8500 Extreme chipset paired with 12GB RAM and UFS 4.1 storage. Everyday performance is smooth, multitasking is effortless, and gaming remains highly capable.

The OnePlus 15R is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5, one of the most powerful Android processors available. Combined with UFS 4.1 storage and up to 512GB capacity, it delivers flagship-level speed. Heavy gaming, video editing, and AI-powered tasks benefit significantly from the extra processing power. Users looking for long-term performance headroom may find the OnePlus more appealing.

Battery and Charging

Motorola equips the Edge 70 Pro+ with a 6500mAh battery, 90W wired charging, 15W wireless charging, and reverse charging capabilities. The charging versatility is a major advantage.

The OnePlus 15R features a larger 7400mAh battery with 80W wired charging. Battery endurance should be among the best in its segment, although the lack of wireless charging reduces convenience.

Verdict

The OnePlus 15R wins on raw performance and battery capacity. However, Motorola offers a more complete charging package, making the choice dependent on whether power or convenience matters more.

Camera

Main and Secondary Lenses

Motorola clearly targets camera enthusiasts with its triple 50MP camera setup. The combination of a 50MP main sensor, 50MP ultrawide camera, and a 50MP periscope telephoto lens with 3.5x optical zoom creates a highly versatile photography system. The inclusion of Pantone-validated colors and skin tones further enhances image consistency.

The OnePlus 15R uses a simpler dual-camera arrangement consisting of a 50MP main sensor and an 8MP ultrawide camera. The primary camera should deliver strong results, but the lack of a dedicated telephoto lens limits zoom flexibility. The smaller ultrawide sensor also falls behind Motorola’s more capable secondary cameras.

Selfie Camera

Motorola includes a 50MP autofocus selfie camera capable of 4K recording. Detail levels and focusing accuracy should be excellent for both photos and video calls.

The OnePlus 15R features a 32MP autofocus selfie camera with OIS-assisted video recording. While still capable, it does not match Motorola’s resolution advantage.

Verdict

Motorola offers the stronger overall camera package. The dedicated telephoto lens, higher-resolution ultrawide camera, and superior selfie hardware give it a clear advantage for photography-focused buyers.

Pricing

The Motorola Edge 70 Pro+ is priced around $570 (approximately ₹48,000), while the OnePlus 15R is priced around $650 (approximately ₹55,000). This creates a noticeable price difference that places the OnePlus in a more premium segment.

At its price, Motorola delivers a flagship-grade display, versatile triple-camera system, wireless charging support, premium durability features, and a large battery. The overall package feels aggressively positioned and offers several features that are often reserved for more expensive devices.

The OnePlus 15R justifies its higher price primarily through its Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 processor, larger battery, premium build materials, and advanced display technologies. Users focused on gaming and performance-heavy workloads may find the additional cost worthwhile.

Verdict

For overall value, the Motorola Edge 70 Pro+ offers more hardware for the money. The OnePlus 15R justifies its premium only if top-tier performance is the highest priority.

Disclaimer:
Prices are approximate and may vary based on country, region, launch timing, and applicable taxes. Always check whether the listed price is for a China unit or a global/international variant when purchasing.

Conclusion

The Motorola Edge 70 Pro+ stands out with its 50MP triple-camera system, periscope zoom lens, wireless charging, reverse wireless charging, Pantone color validation, and highly competitive pricing. It delivers a balanced flagship experience without major compromises.

The OnePlus 15R differentiates itself through the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset, massive 7400mAh battery, 165Hz AMOLED display, Dolby Vision support, ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, and premium aluminum-frame construction. These features make it especially attractive for power users and gamers.

Verdict

The Motorola Edge 70 Pro+ is the better all-round smartphone. It provides a more complete feature set, significantly stronger camera hardware, wireless charging support, and better overall value.

Tipster Digital Chat Station (DCS) is back with a fresh exclusive, and while the leaker did not name the phone directly, the details line up almost perfectly with everything we already know about the upcoming OnePlus 16. Connecting the dots is not hard here, since the chip, panel size, and supplier all match earlier reports.

OnePlus 16 leaks with sub-1mm bezel and 185Hz refresh rate 

According to the leak, a new phone built around the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro is currently doing the rounds in testing (mostly as engineering samples), and it is running at an 185Hz refresh rate. 

This alone is a strong hint, since we previously reported that the OnePlus 16 would use this very chip, and a later report revealed the same 185Hz figure as a starting point.

What is new this time is a word of caution from DCS. The tipster suggests that pushing refresh rates any higher, into the 200Hz range and beyond, could start to affect display quality and may simply not be practical. At least for the time being. 

This tempers earlier expectations around a possible 240Hz panel, suggesting 185Hz could end up being the number that actually ships, rather than just a floor.

The panel itself is said to be a 6.78-inch 1.5K display made by BOE, with upgrades to brightness, color gamut, and power efficiency over what came before. 

Perhaps the most interesting part of the claim is that the screen bezels will come in at under 1mm on all four sides. It will be the slimmest not only for OnePlus, but in the smartphone industry, if true. Meizu 22 currently has the slimmest bezel on a phone at 1.2mm. 

Here are earlier camera leaks and reports of a massive 9,000mAh battery, if you want to have a look. Nothing is official yet, and OnePlus has not confirmed a launch date, but the China debut is still expected sometime in the final quarter of 2026.

OnePlus just announced it’s expanding in India with a fresh entry-level series. The first phone is the OnePlus N6, launching on June 30 in India. It’s aimed at younger buyers who want solid everyday performance without spending too much.

The phone is expected to sit in the ₹18,000 to ₹25,000 range, making it a proper budget/mid-range option. According to Ford, Vice President of OnePlus India, the N6 is specifically targeting Gen Z users. The idea is to connect through “sincerity and rapid storytelling” that matches how young people actually use their phones.

This N Series is a big shift for OnePlus in India. They’re now building a clear three-tier lineup:

• N Series — Entry-level (₹18k–₹25k)
• Nord Series — Mid-range (₹25k–₹50k)
• Flagship series — Premium segment

The “N” stands for New, Neo, and Never Off, which hints at the phone’s focus on good battery life and staying usable throughout the day.

Design-wise, the N6 looks clean and modern with a flat back and flat frame. It’ll come in nice green and black colors. The back has a dual-camera setup in a square module, and the front features a flat display with a centered punch-hole and slightly thicker bezels (pretty normal for this price range).

Full specs are still under wraps, but the phone is expected to deliver strong battery endurance and smooth daily performance to live up to that “Never Off” promise. It will go on sale from June 30 on Amazon.in, the OnePlus India website, and offline stores.

It’ll be interesting to see how the new OnePlus N series stacks up against strong competitors like iQOO’s Z series and Samsung’s Galaxy A series in the sub-₹25,000 segment.

Mobile gaming in 2026 has shifted its focus from peak speed to sustained survival. To combat the dimmed screens and dropped frames that plague standard smartphones during heavy sessions, manufacturers are bringing out the heavy artillery: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chips, massive 7,000mAh batteries, and advanced thermal management. Whether you prefer a dedicated gaming powerhouse or a traditional flagship that can hold its own, here is a look at the best gaming phones available globally in June 2026.

Red Magic 11S Pro

The Red Magic 11S Pro is designed specifically for users who prioritize long gaming sessions and want hardware built entirely around that experience. Red Magic has focused heavily on sustained performance with this model. While it runs on the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 Leading Version processor, its ability to maintain performance relies on the AquaCore Cooling System.

This setup combines a physical 24,000 RPM internal fan with a fluorinated liquid cooling loop. Through the transparent back panel, you can see the non-conductive coolant being moved by ceramic micropumps. It is a complex solution, but it effectively prevents the phone from throttling under heavy workloads.

To support the main processor, Red Magic includes a secondary RedCore R4 chip that handles audio, haptic feedback, and visual effects, freeing up resources for the game itself. The display is a 6.85-inch 1.5K OLED panel with a 144Hz refresh rate. Because the 16-megapixel front camera is hidden beneath the display, there is no hole-punch cutout to interrupt the screen.

Powering the device is a large 7,500mAh battery that supports 80W wireless and wired charging, and the phone includes 520Hz capacitive shoulder triggers for physical inputs. On the software side, it runs Red Magic OS 11.5, which now integrates Google Gemini AI for real-time translation and image searches.

OnePlus 15

Not everyone wants a phone with visible cooling fans and transparent back panels. The OnePlus 15 takes a different approach, offering high-end gaming capabilities inside a standard, premium smartphone design. It uses the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor and pairs it with up to 16GB of RAM, but its primary gaming advantage is the display.

The 6.78-inch AMOLED screen features a native 165Hz refresh rate that is specifically supported by games like Call of Duty: Mobile and Brawl Stars. It also includes a dedicated touch response chip that pushes the touch sampling rate to 3200Hz for quicker input recognition.

Instead of a physical fan, the OnePlus 15 manages heat using a large vapor chamber and an aerospace-derived aerogel insulation layer to keep the exterior comfortable to hold. It features a 7,300mAh Silicon NanoStack battery and supports bypass charging, which allows you to power the phone directly from the wall while gaming to reduce heat and preserve battery health.

Unlike most gaming-focused phones, the OnePlus 15 also delivers a highly capable camera system, featuring a 50MP main sensor and a 50MP periscope telephoto lens. It is also built to last, carrying IP66, IP68, IP69, and IP69K ratings for water and dust resistance.

Red Magic 11 Pro

If you want the core Red Magic experience but don’t need the overclocked processor of the new “S” variant, the Red Magic 11 Pro remains an incredible buy. Launched late last year, it still holds its own against anything released in 2026.

It features the standard Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor and can be configured with up to 24GB of RAM and 1TB of storage. The display remains the same 6.85-inch notchless OLED panel, providing an uninterrupted view of your games. To maintain frame rates during extended play, it also utilizes the AquaCore system, showcasing a visible, flowing liquid cooling loop through a transparent back, paired with a massive vapor chamber and a 24,000 RPM active cooling fan.

It also retains the 7,500mAh battery, the 520Hz shoulder triggers, and the dual stereo speakers found on the S-tier model. It is a highly capable device that focuses purely on the gaming experience without the extra experimental hardware.

Red Magic 11 Air

Gaming phones are traditionally heavy and thick to accommodate larger batteries and cooling systems. The Red Magic 11 Air attempts to balance dedicated gaming features with a more manageable form factor. It is 12% thinner and 10% lighter than the standard 11 Pro, making it much easier to use as a daily driver.

Despite the smaller size, Red Magic managed to fit a physical 24,000 RPM cooling fan inside, which is a notable addition to the Air lineup. It uses the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor and features a 6.85-inch 144Hz OLED display with ultra-narrow bezels. The battery is slightly smaller at 7,000mAh, but that is still larger than most standard smartphones on the market and a significant upgrade from the previous generation.

It also retains the physical shoulder triggers, which have been updated to support vertical games, and includes charge separation technology to keep the phone cool when plugged in. For software, it includes tools like a Tactical Coach for real-time guidance in popular multiplayer games, making it a well-rounded option for those who want gaming features in a slimmer profile.
