From CNET: RedMagic's $849 11S Pro, unveiled Wednesday, includes a few small tweaks to the prior RedMagic 11 Pro that debuted last fall. But as continues to be the case across the phone industry, the new phone also gets a $100 price bump that might be attributed to the rising cost of electronics.
The RedMagic 11S Pro has two main changes: The phone now includes the "Leading Version" of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip, while the liquid cooling system that debuted on the 11 Pro is now transparently visible across every model in the line. This means that you can see the liquid coolant move around inside of the phone when it's activated, which seems like just a cosmetic change. On the RedMagic 11 Pro, the Cryo edition did not have a transparent back that allowed you to see the system, even though it is there.
Outside of those focuses, the phone is largely identical to the model that came out last fall, including features like a large 7,500-mAh battery, 80-watt wired charging with the charger included in the box and a built-in cooling fan that can run at 24,000 revolutions per minute. Most of these features benefit anyone prioritizing mobile gaming at high graphics settings. These features extend playing sessions with a bigger battery while avoiding overheating by using that cooling fan and the liquid cooling system.
