RedMagic has confirmed that it will be offering the RedMagic 11 Pro globally with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. Unfortunately, the company has quietly confirmed that the global version of its latest gaming smartphone will not feature the 8,000 mAh battery offered in China.

RedMagic has now indicated that it plans to release at least one of its new gaming smartphones globally, having presented them in China earlier today. To recap, RedMagic unveiled the RedMagic 11 Pro and RedMagic 11 Pro Plus as some of the first smartphones to feature Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset. Moreover, the pair contain 8,000 mAh batteries supported by 80 W wireless and 120 W wired charging.

Unfortunately, RedMagic will not be bringing across the RedMagic 11 series in full. As the teaser image below shows, the global version of the RedMagic 11 Pro will feature a 7,500 mAh battery, a 500 mAh and 6.25% drop on the battery in its Chinese counterpart. The global model will retain a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset backed by RedMagic's AquaCore Cooling System, though.

Additionally, a 7,500 mAh battery is a 450 mAh and 6.38% upgrade on the battery capacity that the RedMagic 10 Pro provides (curr. $899 on Amazon). RedMagic will release the RedMagic 11 Pro at 11:00 UTC on November 3. In the meantime, one can sign up and play for a chance to win a RedMagic 11 Pro and several other prizes like RedMagic's PhantomLite 5000mAh and PhantomLite 10000mAh power banks. Please see RedMagic's website for more details.
