    This says it has "a 3.5 mm headphone jack" but I've heard that people who already have the phone in China confirm that it does not have a headphone jack. Which is the truth? Is it going to include a 3.5 mm headphone jack on the global versions?

Themperature is maybe 1 degree cooler, but performance when playing games is good much longer than on other phones. For gaming it is still better than iqoo 15 ultra. I have RedMagic 11 Pro and know that. You can't have it all. I think RedMagic 12 Pro will be the best gaming phone, but as wuth other phones price is higher. All I want is this RedMagic 12 Pro are better speakers.

        RushGamer, 17 Oct 2026If you don’t own the device better not say its “worthless” ... moreand samsung and apple owners call their phones the best in the world and call other phones worthless, surely they know how good their phone is and are right, based on your logic.

          jiyen235, 17 Oct 2026i've seen shots till the 10 series, absolutely worthle... moreIf you don’t own the device better not say its “worthless” as we the owners better know them than just watching reviews right. I’d always say its decently good. Again, its not a camera phone and iQoo 15 Ultra’s got a big camera island too while Redmagic’s gaming focused design is completely flat. My IMO.

            RushGamer, 17 Oct 2026Rear cameras of Redmagic devices believe it or not is actua... morei've seen shots till the 10 series, absolutely worthless cameras and unoptimised.

            the cooling is decent but based on tests i've seen, passively speaking, it's about on par with the oneplus or iqoo phones for a few years now and at best 1 degree cooler but generally the same. 47 vs 46 isnt anything massive imo, considering one is a gaming phone.

            The fan is nice and that's the only thing i'd say these phones have going for them, but the iqoo 15 ultra for example has better cameras, a fan and ip 68.

              jiyen235, 17 Oct 2026as thin as the s26 ultra without the cameras nor the s pen.... moreRear cameras of Redmagic devices believe it or not is actually decently good. They’re true gaming phones after all which focuses the hardware on bloody cooling systems hehe. But hoping in the near future, there will be Redmagic flagship with a nubia Z series level camera system. That would be an absolute killer.

                RushGamer, 17 Oct 2026its not entirely slim like Air models of streamline brands ... moreas thin as the s26 ultra without the cameras nor the s pen. it's not exactly a win at all. The price is the only saving grace. 500 bucks is a good deal.

                    what's an X-axis linear motor? for vibrations?

Its also the more budget oriented model for people who can’t afford the RM pro series.

                      Here in Asia, more people are buying the Air cause its like around $499. Me, I have a RM10SPro and an iPhone combo. But I also daily drive my 10SPro :)

                        RushGamer, 16 Oct 2026Yeah, I myself felt pretty sad for the price hike it got th... morethe air would prolly be nearly double that

                        besides, i wonder, why the air? who actually buys a thin gaming phone? what's the purpose?

                                Gaming on this phone will be on a whole new level. Unfortunately, there are no other gaming phones on the market. It must be launched globally.

                                  Still no proper desktop mode.

                                  Also micro sd card slot would be great with gaming phone.

Hoping they’ll learn this year and fix the pricing of the 13 series in the coming year. Hoping the 12 Air would be priced around $549…

                                      The RedMagic phones are some of the most removed from an iPhone on that area and for reasons:
                                      - No notch / Sharp corners (give you the most screen possible)
                                      - Flat back (comfort, practicality)
                                      - 3.5mm jack (not anymore sadly)
