            potato4k, 31 Jan 2026Gaming phone without headphone jack is dumb. No real gamer want to deal with TWS latency.Hope they'll fix this on the next iteration. So far all improvements from the 10 Air are good. 11 Air now has USB TV out(alt mode), active fans too, a bigger 7,000mAh and 8Elite (from 8Gen3).

              xPandamon, 31 Jan 2026Real gamers do not play on their phones. Besides, any decent tws set has a gaming mode nowaday... moreReal gamers play on whatever device they own and enjoy it. In Asia, mobile gaming in AAA esports titles are huge, this is unheard of in the Western countries though.

              Redmagic themselves had sponsored several mobile eSports tournament across different Asian countries. I have a PC myself but its mostly for single player AAA games only. Mobile eSports games are mostly focus on multiplayer and competitive battles and most are free and downloadable.

And its the best flagship device I've had with them, note I aso have a Samsung device with me.

                The phone even as a gaming phone has good rear cameras. Takes good daily and night shots and has a very tanky battery life, lasts me 1-3 days. Updates, its receiving security + stabilization/features updates and soon the Android 16 OS update. They're not the fastest in releasing updates but, for its price value half of most flagships, this is to be expected.

                I'm not sure what you're ranting about Redmagic devices but, they're really durable for years of usage, has very tank battery, has a beautiful yet tough AMOLED underdisplay display too.

                Xiaomi on the other hand has dead mother board issues on some of their models and are plagged with Ads everywhere on its UI. lol

                          He didn't have a second phone though... At some point he sold it due to all those issues, selling the phone was actually very easy because enough young kiddos see these in YouTube ads and want them.

                          My brother is a adult, but he wanted it because of emulation and for Genshin.

                            Anonymous, 31 Jan 2026Two times the price to be treated like this? https://www.androidauthority.com/asus-bootloader... moreAnd how many blunders did ZTE make?

                            Let me tell you this, I have a RedMagic as secondary device, my main is Xiaomi flip.

                            I tried daily driving my RedMagic, if you think beyond poorly translated OS and zero updates is the only problem, it not.

                            They should have make this a super portable tablet instead because they even messedup the phone part, phone calls not coming in, signal being gone BUT the phone thinks it is still there, bad 5G, bugs in OS, crashes, and a battery that has mood swings.

                            I get a new one each year, it's my guilty pleasure and I game mostly on my phone, they are dirt cheap.

                            For a reason.

                            Not saying ROG phone is worth the money, in my opinion they made by far a better phone on many regards, but not for the price Asus asked (800 euro made more sense than 1000 and above they wanted for it here)

                            But RedMagic is not as good as many think, and most reviews won't tell you that because some issues come up after having it for few months to half year, out of the box it is mostly the phone part, updates part and translation part.

                            Really, you are 10x better off getting a top tier Poco or older OnePlus or Samsung instead, unless like me buying a RedMagic every year is a thing for you, and you have a second phone for real phone use.

                            I have a second phone and that's Xiaomi Flip, so I'm fine.

                              Imagine android having a suite of games just like the Nintendo switch. High quality and exclusive. Ah well, "gacha and emulation" it is then :/

                                  In the end, battery life is still comparable, while call time is significantly better on ZTE.
                                  It only takes 14min longer to charge to 100%.

                                      This is not good for a 7000mah phone.

                                        Another plus to ZTE is that you will also get a 80W charger in EU.
