RedMagic 10S Pro vs RedMagic 11 Pro
It depends
Too close to call outright
These two are within 2 points overall — it genuinely depends on price on the day. The RedMagic 11 Pro edges both longevity and performance, so prefer it when prices are close.

Who should pick which
Beyond the scores — our take on each phone and the buyer it actually suits.
A 2025 refresh of the 10 Pro with an overclocked Snapdragon 8 Elite, improved cooling, and Wi-Fi 7 for the most demanding mobile gamers, with estimated support to 2028.
Pick it if
- ✓ Competitive mobile gamers
- ✓ Performance maximalists
Skip it if
- ✗ Camera-first buyers
- ✗ Slim-phone fans
The world's first mass-produced liquid-cooled phone is a $749 performance bargain — but with support ending in late 2028, a mid-2026 buyer gets barely 2.5 years of safe ownership.

The lifespan decider
When specs are close, support length decides it — this is what each phone costs per month of safe use.
Category by category
Both displays are effectively the same class.
Performance is a wash — same chip tier.
Camera systems are comparable on paper — pick by sample photos.
Battery capacities are close enough not to decide this.
The RedMagic 11 Pro is supported until Nov 2028 — 6 months longer than the RedMagic 10S Pro.
Pound for pound, these two are equally good deals.
Frequently asked
How is the 10S Pro different from the RedMagic 10 Pro?
The 10S Pro is a mid-cycle refresh with an overclocked Snapdragon 8 Elite, improved cooling, and Wi-Fi 7, while keeping the same 7050mAh battery and chassis.
Does the RedMagic 10S Pro have Wi-Fi 7?
Yes, the 10S Pro adds Wi-Fi 7 support, an upgrade over the Wi-Fi 6E found on the original RedMagic 10 Pro.
How long will the RedMagic 11 Pro be supported?
RedMagic's published policy for the 11 Pro series promises 2 generations of Android OS updates and 3 years of security patches from launch — so support runs to about November 2028. Buying at mid-2026 leaves under 2.5 years of coverage, easily the shortest window of any 2025-26 flagship we track, and the main reason its longevity score suffers despite great hardware.
Is the liquid cooling a gimmick?
No — it is the first mass-produced phone with actively circulating coolant, pushed through micro-channels by piezoelectric pumps and paired with liquid metal, a huge vapor chamber, and a 24,000 RPM fan. Reviews consistently showed near-zero throttling in extended gaming sessions, which slower-cooled flagships cannot match.
