  • Both phones will be among the early adopters of Qualcomm's latest and greatest Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset.
  • RedMagic 11 Pro will flaunt a 3D Ultrasonic Fingerprint scanner and IP68 rating.

Nubia has confirmed that it will launch the RedMagic 11 Pro series in China on October 17, 2025, at 2:30 PM CST (or 12:00 PM IST). The brand's gaming-focused lineup will debut with Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor and an upgraded cooling system.

The brand took to its official Weibo handle to reveal the RedMagic 11 Pro launch date and confirm the chipset powering it. However, it's no surprise since the RedMagic 11 Pro Geekbench listing from a month ago already confirmed the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for it.

Additionally, going by the teasers, the RedMagic 11 Pro will feature a redesigned ICE cooling system with water cooling support.

Apart from this, the series is also expected to include a high-refresh-rate AMOLED display with low touch latency when gaming. The upcoming lineup from Nubia is expected to include the RedMagic 11 Pro and RedMagic 11 Pro+.

Although not much is known about the upcoming flagships, leaks and reports suggest around an 8,000mAh battery. The RedMagic 11 Pro is also expected to flaunt a 3D Ultrasonic Fingerprint scanner and an IP68 rating. 

Recently, the Xiaomi 17 series launched in China as the first phones to be powered by the 8 Elite Gen 5. Now, Nubia will be joining the impressive list of phones powered by the flagship chipset, alongside the upcoming iQOO 15, OnePlus 15 and more.
