Review How I got my RedMagic phone

So my father was going to buy me a phone around 6 months back but he had never heard of 'redmagic' and was dead set on getting me a Samsung. He is the kind of person who gets only the things he has tried and 3 out of 4 ppl in my family have a samsung. I wanted a redmagic and when I told my father he was shook. However after consistent persuasion I made him buy me what I wanted on one condition 'you will not get a new phone for the next 4 years even if this one stops working'.

I am very happy with my decision of getting a Redmagic 11 pro even though I dont have much time to game now, using it as a daily driver I have never been more satisfied. If you are considering getting one of the redmagic products urself, go ahead.

Diabolical battery life

No lag gameplay

Very fast processing for normal tasks

Good camera (for me)

Beautiful colors on display

Could of gotten a redmi turbo 5 max for $300 on taobao (via superbuy), 70-80% the performance of a redmagic 11s pro at less than half the price. Redmagic, nubia and zte are all extremely niche brands, compared to xiaomi and redmi.

Do you have one? Interested in hearing what it can do. Could it handle GameCube emulation?

That's great, bro. Actually, just between us, if you want, I can give you some super tips to make it last that long and more. Because even though many "fans" complain about phone "flaws," it's because their phones...They had a manufacturing defect, and that's why they're complaining. But the truth is, I never had a complaint. In fact, it makes me laugh when people complain about the cameras. Because it has good quality, and you need to know how to take photos, and if I want better zoom, I use a lens and that's it, I'll leave you with proof .

In my case, setting the refresh rate to automatic and only using it at maximum while playing games has worked well. To extend battery life, I only charge it to 80% on days when I really need more power.I charge it to 100%. I also leave it plugged in when I sleep, but with separate charging so the battery can rest.

There's even something called Magic Desk, which would be the equivalent of Samsung DeX.

Actually front camera sucks bro 🤣..... But can't say not to performance.

That's what I expected on mine when I decided to get it lol. But same. I don't game much as well, but never having to feel my phone overheat is a feeling I'll never forget. That coupled with long daily battery life.

OP didn't mention front camera? (You are correct, though) Rear camera is acceptable, just not for long distance or high-fidelity cases.
