RedMagic has unveiled the 11 Air Trace Edition, a gaming phone that swaps the original’s subtle design for a striking white finish with bold orange accents and a semi-transparent aesthetic. The new variant maintains the same powerful hardware as the standard model, including the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, up to 16GB RAM, and 512GB storage. Priced at $599 / €599, it’s essentially a cosmetic refresh of the January launch.

This special edition keeps the slim 7.85mm profile and 207g weight that made the original stand out in a category known for bulky designs. The phone features a 6.85-inch AMOLED display with 1.5K resolution, 144Hz refresh rate, and 960Hz touch sampling for responsive gaming. RedMagic’s ICE Cooling System with vapor chambers and graphene layers ensures the device stays cool during extended gaming sessions.

Gaming features include 520Hz shoulder trigger buttons, bypass charging, and the RedCore R4 gaming chip that handles audio and haptics to free up the main processor. The 7,000mAh battery supports fast wired charging, addressing gamers’ need for quick power-ups. While the camera setup remains basic with a 50MP primary sensor and 16MP front camera, the software runs RedMagic OS 11 based on Android 16 with gaming-focused optimizations.
