Air in name only.

Redmagic’s new 11 Air just launched in China. Sounds thin and light, right? Well, sort of — at 8mm thick and 207g it’s smaller than Redmagic’s liquid-cooled 11 Pro, but a far cry from the 5.6mm, 165g iPhone Air. Still, not bad for a phone with a 7,000mAh battery and built-in fan.

Render of Redmagic 11 Air in black or white versions, with CGI rings around them.
The 11 Air is svelte for a gaming phone, but still pretty big — and it’s no smaller than the previous 10 Air.
