WEBVTT 00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:07.520 It's so rare to see something genuinely new in a phone these days that I'd say 00:00:04.960 --> 00:00:12.639 it counts as a legendary pull when you get a device that not only has a fresh 00:00:09.760 --> 00:00:17.760 new trick up its sleeve, but that also happens to hit the [music] fastest 00:00:14.559 --> 00:00:19.039 benchmark scores we've ever tested. And 00:00:17.760 --> 00:00:23.119 if you're like me and you've been dreaming of a flagship phone that has 00:00:21.039 --> 00:00:29.119 old school cool features like a headphone jack, a bumpless camera, and a 00:00:25.920 --> 00:00:30.880 giant battery, there is so much more to 00:00:29.119 --> 00:00:36.079 love about Red Magic, who sponsored this video for us to show off the Red Magic 00:00:33.440 --> 00:00:41.040 11 Pro, the [music] world's first mass-roduced liquid cooled phone. And 00:00:39.280 --> 00:00:46.000 more importantly, [music] maybe to tear it apart so we can get a good look at 00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:55.079 how they managed to pack teeny tiny water cooling into a phone that looks 00:00:48.960 --> 00:00:55.079 like this and not like this. 00:01:01.440 --> 00:01:08.775 Tear down. Step one, heat up the back to soften the adhesive that holds on the 00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:10.795 Gorilla Glass backing. 00:01:08.775 --> 00:01:10.795 >> [music] 00:01:13.119 --> 00:01:19.200 >> Oh, buddy. [music] Step two. Correct. 00:01:16.479 --> 00:01:24.640 Red Magic's biggest blunder with this device. The fact that they covered up 00:01:21.759 --> 00:01:28.960 any of this liquid cooling loop. Like, dude, even the ones with the transparent 00:01:26.479 --> 00:01:33.040 window in the back. They don't show all of it. How flipping cool is this? 00:01:31.600 --> 00:01:38.906 Seriously [music] though, in JerryRig Everything's video, he tears down the transparent back one. And all this 00:01:36.960 --> 00:01:42.560 coverage of the lube here is just a [music] sticker. That is like the first 00:01:40.880 --> 00:01:47.280 thing that I would take out. I got to assume that's there for shielding or 00:01:44.079 --> 00:01:48.880 compliance or something cuz like damn. 00:01:47.280 --> 00:01:55.119 Oh, look at that. I can move the liquid around myself. Okay, so next up, let's 00:01:51.920 --> 00:01:58.079 pull up this. Oh, 00:01:55.119 --> 00:02:03.200 interesting. Protective film. And then next, the chi charging coil is cable 00:02:00.399 --> 00:02:10.640 managed into the cooling loop sticker. Hold on one sec. This is wild, dude. 00:02:06.960 --> 00:02:12.720 I've seen ideas like this concepts. I 00:02:10.640 --> 00:02:19.760 have never seen this in a production phone. There it is. That is thinner than 00:02:17.040 --> 00:02:24.400 a playing card. And yes, [music] 00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:26.800 that is real liquid. The pump is right 00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:32.959 there. There is one thing that I can't overlook here and that is that the water 00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:36.239 cooling system realistically is not 00:02:32.959 --> 00:02:39.280 doing a lot of cooling. It's just maybe 00:02:36.239 --> 00:02:42.239 moving heat around a little bit. The 00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:46.879 main cooling is being done by the two other cooling systems that are 00:02:44.319 --> 00:02:51.519 integrated into this phone. Red Magic boasts that they've integrated the phone 00:02:48.400 --> 00:02:55.599 industry's largest vapor chamber ever. 00:02:51.519 --> 00:02:58.480 And assisting it is this 24,000 00:02:55.599 --> 00:03:01.519 RPM fan. The fan we can see now, but to get a look at the vapor chamber, we're 00:02:59.920 --> 00:03:07.680 going to have to go quite a bit deeper. By the way, as I'm removing these screws, you guys might have noticed a 00:03:04.239 --> 00:03:09.599 little bit of uh background noise. 00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:12.879 That's because we've got this bad boy running 3D Mark Wildlife in the 00:03:11.360 --> 00:03:17.920 background so that we can have the fan running and the liquid circulating as we 00:03:15.200 --> 00:03:21.599 tear down our device. And uh you might have noticed that at full [music] tilt 00:03:19.840 --> 00:03:25.840 you will hear that fan if you aren't using headphones. Though of course you 00:03:23.440 --> 00:03:30.560 will be using headphones. [music] I mean you don't want to be that guy on the 00:03:27.920 --> 00:03:34.080 bus, do you? [music] And besides, it's just so convenient. Headphone jacks, 00:03:32.319 --> 00:03:39.440 man. Bring them back. With the camera cover removed, we reach a critical 00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:45.599 element of the cooling system. And this one is not just for show. See, the SoC 00:03:43.599 --> 00:03:52.080 that's at the heart of the Red Magic 11 Pro is the Snapdragon 8 Elite [music] 00:03:48.159 --> 00:03:54.959 Gen 5, an 8 core beast with an Adreno 00:03:52.080 --> 00:03:59.360 840 GPU that improves both traditional raster and [music] ray traced 00:03:56.879 --> 00:04:04.400 performance, contributing to big gains over Red Magic's last gen devices. Huh. 00:04:02.319 --> 00:04:09.280 but also in the highest performance profile, some pretty serious heat in 00:04:07.680 --> 00:04:13.920 applications that are designed to draw maximum power, like repeated runs of 3D 00:04:12.319 --> 00:04:17.919 Mark's Wildlife Stress Test. We're talking with Red Magic about it, but in 00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:21.280 a nutshell, they might need to run the fan a little higher to keep device 00:04:20.037 --> 00:04:25.280 [music] surface temperatures under control once this thing hits the market. 00:04:23.759 --> 00:04:29.840 And that really should help in a big way because you can see this cooling element 00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:35.103 with the fan and an intake, some thermal compound, and an exhaust should go a 00:04:32.320 --> 00:04:40.880 long way towards cooling our SoC right [music] here. That That is so cool. With 00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:44.720 all that said, we only saw the surface temperatures go so high in power 00:04:42.240 --> 00:04:50.639 viruses. Most mobile games are FPS capped, meaning that power consumption 00:04:46.960 --> 00:04:52.400 shouldn't be able to run wild life. So, 00:04:50.639 --> 00:04:55.600 why don't we see how things go in COD Mobile? First things first, fire up game 00:04:54.000 --> 00:04:59.759 mode and then I guess yeah, let's go straight to multiplayer so I can show 00:04:57.120 --> 00:05:04.000 off my terrible mobile gaming skills. All right. Wow, King Slayer. If only I 00:05:02.720 --> 00:05:07.919 wasn't playing against bots that are designed to make me feel better and uh 00:05:05.840 --> 00:05:12.800 take my money. Oh my god, look how awesome I am. I should buy so many 00:05:10.479 --> 00:05:17.199 cosmetics right now. Score streak is ready 00:05:14.720 --> 00:05:21.600 right there. Boom. Well, that was bound to happen, 00:05:18.880 --> 00:05:26.880 but I can't blame the device. 520 Hz pulling rate triggers, 144 hertz 00:05:24.400 --> 00:05:33.759 display. It really moves a fair bit of air, doesn't it? That's really cool. I'm 00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:36.000 going to try and get one more kill. 00:05:33.759 --> 00:05:40.000 Ah, screwed up. Now I can keep screwing up this phone by unscrewing the rest of 00:05:38.320 --> 00:05:44.720 the screws with this LT precision screwdriver from LT Store.crew. Sorry, I 00:05:42.320 --> 00:05:48.240 mean LTTCrew.com. ltstore.com. 00:05:46.400 --> 00:05:53.199 A damn it. We've got a great look right now at the triple camera setup. There's 00:05:50.639 --> 00:05:58.320 dual 50 megapixel rear cameras as well as a 2 megapixel camera for calculating 00:05:55.440 --> 00:06:02.560 distance and a quad LED flash. And now it's gone. See you later, buddy. It's 00:06:00.880 --> 00:06:07.280 nice knowing you. What's not gone though is the front camera. You might have 00:06:04.400 --> 00:06:14.560 noticed this earlier. See that? No camera cutout, no dynamic island, 00:06:12.319 --> 00:06:18.400 just some pixels on the screen that are lower density so that when you fire up 00:06:16.960 --> 00:06:24.639 the front camera, you shoot through them. [music] Is it the sharpest front-facing camera in the world? No. 00:06:23.039 --> 00:06:30.880 But is your [music] screen not interrupted 00:06:26.479 --> 00:06:32.319 by ugly, unsightly holes? Yes. As for 00:06:30.880 --> 00:06:37.199 the rear cameras, David's going to go take some shots outside. We'll let you guys be the judge. I don't want to let 00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:42.800 any subjectivity get into this because this is a sponsored video. What isn't 00:06:39.680 --> 00:06:45.680 subjective is the lack of a camera bump. 00:06:42.800 --> 00:06:49.759 Now, I suspect for Red Magic, this is really more about gaming comfort, but 00:06:47.919 --> 00:06:53.520 for me, it's just nice that they're using the whole depth of the device for 00:06:51.600 --> 00:07:00.080 their cameras here, which allows me to just put my phone down flat on a surface 00:06:57.759 --> 00:07:03.360 without freaking it wobbling all over the place when I want to interact with 00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:07.680 it. You can see they're like really using the entire depth here. Since we're 00:07:06.080 --> 00:07:12.319 in here, now is a great time to get a better look at the backside of our 00:07:09.280 --> 00:07:17.440 Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5's cooling and 00:07:12.319 --> 00:07:19.759 the up to 24 GB of LP DDDR5T 00:07:17.440 --> 00:07:24.479 memory that's in this phone. The T, by the way, is for turbo, and it's a little 00:07:22.000 --> 00:07:28.880 bit faster than LPDDR5X and probably as good as it's going to 00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:32.800 get before we switch over to LPDDR6. in there somewhere. We've got up to a 00:07:30.160 --> 00:07:35.919 terabyte of UFS 4.1 storage. But before we get to that, I need to disconnect 00:07:34.639 --> 00:07:41.759 this battery, which I actually should have done a long time ago. And maybe let's talk about it a little bit. For 00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:47.759 those of you who are eagle-eyed, yes, that is 27.77 00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:51.280 W hours, or as we typically refer to 00:07:47.759 --> 00:07:53.919 them in sort of mobile devices, 7500 00:07:51.280 --> 00:07:57.759 milliamp hours. That is freaking nuts. Now, we just need to get a little bit of 00:07:55.120 --> 00:08:01.120 alcohol. Woo! A lot of alcohol around the outsides. It's nice that Red Magic 00:07:59.520 --> 00:08:05.759 gives you these pull tabs to lift out the battery. Wish more manufacturers 00:08:03.120 --> 00:08:11.199 would DO THAT. [screaming and groaning] OH, YES. 00:08:08.635 --> 00:08:19.825 [laughter] That That is like a lot of the weight of the device. 93 g. All 00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:19.825 right. 145 g. [laughter] 00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:29.840 Literally like what what does that work out to? 35 plus% of the weight of this 00:08:25.919 --> 00:08:32.800 device is that ginormous battery. I'm 00:08:29.840 --> 00:08:38.000 not even complaining. Like that is 50% more raw capacity than the Pixel 10 and 00:08:34.880 --> 00:08:39.760 about double the iPhone 17. Though it is 00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:44.159 worth noting that that second one especially is an apples to oranges 00:08:42.000 --> 00:08:49.839 comparison. Red Magic claims that that giant battery will last up to 34 hours 00:08:46.880 --> 00:08:55.360 of daily usage. And in our testing, we got just over 22 hours of continuous 00:08:52.800 --> 00:08:59.600 video playback, about 20% longer than Red Magic's last gen phones. And when 00:08:57.920 --> 00:09:05.360 you run out of juice, I don't know, sometime tomorrow, the Red Magic 11 Pro 00:09:02.240 --> 00:09:07.440 boasts up to 80 watt wired and two-way 00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:12.320 wireless charging. In our testing, by the way, we did see it hit the full 80 00:09:09.440 --> 00:09:17.360 watts, but only briefly before settling in around 60 watts, which is still going 00:09:14.560 --> 00:09:23.040 to give you a 0 to 100% charge in 59 minutes on what I would remind you is a 00:09:19.600 --> 00:09:24.480 massive, massive battery. All right, now 00:09:23.040 --> 00:09:29.856 that we've got this out, maybe we can get a closer look at what's going on with the SOC situation here. Oh, that's 00:09:28.320 --> 00:09:34.399 nice. Check this out. The headphone [music] jack is on a nice little ribbon 00:09:32.480 --> 00:09:39.040 daughterboard magig. So, if you ever need to replace it, it shouldn't be that 00:09:37.519 --> 00:09:43.920 big of an operation. At least it's doable without replacing a large part of 00:09:40.800 --> 00:09:44.959 it. Look at that. Oh, yeah. And there's 00:09:43.920 --> 00:09:51.680 stuff that we've taken out that we wouldn't have had to, like this cooling tunnel here. I remember finding this out 00:09:49.279 --> 00:09:55.680 and it it just it blew my mind then and it's still a little surprising to me 00:09:53.360 --> 00:09:58.000 just how much of the heat of a phone is expected to be dissipated [music] 00:09:56.720 --> 00:10:01.920 through the screen. Check this out. And here's thermal interface material right 00:10:00.160 --> 00:10:09.360 between the front of the copper heat spreader that's applied [music] to our SOC here and what is essentially like 00:10:06.160 --> 00:10:11.120 the screen. Intuitively to me, the 00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:14.800 screen would have enough cooling to do on its own. In this case, it's 144 00:10:13.360 --> 00:10:19.360 hertz. [music] They claim >> 1,800 nits peak brightness, 00:10:16.480 --> 00:10:25.360 >> but we measured well in excess of that regularly over 2,000 nits with a peak of 00:10:22.000 --> 00:10:26.160 just over 2400 nits. It's AMOLED, so of 00:10:25.360 --> 00:10:34.720 course you're going to get great contrast. And probably the most impressive part of it to me is the over 00:10:30.959 --> 00:10:37.200 95% screen to body ratio. They've still 00:10:34.720 --> 00:10:42.079 managed to squeeze in speaker here for your earpiece and then a speaker here, 00:10:39.839 --> 00:10:45.120 so you get stereo sound. Actually, it's probably time to listen to Crab Rave. I 00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:49.112 just realized we never actually talked about like the layout of the phone at 00:10:47.519 --> 00:10:53.839 all. So, there's the triggers, [laughter] lock button, volume rocker, game mode 00:10:52.160 --> 00:10:59.839 switch. There's the headphone jack that we discussed [music] before, intake, and 00:10:56.320 --> 00:11:01.279 then of course SIM tray, USB type-C, and 00:10:59.839 --> 00:11:05.640 a couple microphones for, you know, noise cancellation, that sort of thing. 00:11:06.240 --> 00:11:11.040 Once again, I don't want to get too deep into subjective stuff here, like audio 00:11:09.440 --> 00:11:14.959 quality, but it's clear that it passes the I don't really need to carry my 00:11:12.720 --> 00:11:17.760 Bluetooth speaker everywhere test. So, make of [music] that what you will. With 00:11:16.240 --> 00:11:21.920 the tearown out of the way, it's time to show you guys what we measured for 00:11:19.279 --> 00:11:26.720 performance from this. By all accounts, Qualcomm's claims about the Snapdragon 8 00:11:24.079 --> 00:11:31.279 Elite 5 platform having the fastest mobile CPU in the world ring true. So, 00:11:29.600 --> 00:11:36.720 it should come as no surprise that the Red Magic 11 Pro hit the highest scores 00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:40.560 we've ever seen in our multiple 3D Mark and Geekbench mobile benchmarks, even 00:11:39.120 --> 00:11:45.120 higher than the other phones that we've tested [music] with the same processor. 00:11:42.880 --> 00:11:50.079 But I do want to point out again that they may have some fine tuning to do on 00:11:47.680 --> 00:11:55.600 their fan [music] curve. There's a few more things for us to talk about. The 00:11:52.160 --> 00:11:59.279 body that we roflessly tore apart is 00:11:55.600 --> 00:12:01.120 IPX8 rated with RGB lighting. And you 00:11:59.279 --> 00:12:08.800 really want to talk about Mora, David? >> Yeah, I do. >> Okay. [snorts] Mora puts the AI back in 00:12:06.000 --> 00:12:12.160 anime and waifu. That was it. That was the joke. That was 00:12:10.720 --> 00:12:16.720 the entire reason you wanted to talk about Mora. >> There's two AIs in anime waifu. 00:12:14.959 --> 00:12:20.560 >> So, what do we do with Mora? >> We chat with Mora. She can help you in 00:12:18.639 --> 00:12:28.160 game by giving you [music] tips. >> What is the point of you? [laughter] 00:12:25.760 --> 00:12:32.240 >> Oh my god. She refers to you as commander by default. Oh my god. She 00:12:30.800 --> 00:12:35.278 gives her weight. >> What? [laughter] 00:12:35.680 --> 00:12:42.000 >> Sure. Let's ask. What's your foot size? I don't actually 00:12:40.560 --> 00:12:47.013 have a physical body or foot [music] size. [laughter] 00:12:43.839 --> 00:12:50.000 Okay. But you told me you weigh 54 00:12:47.013 --> 00:12:53.618 [music] kg. I did mention my weight. That's part of the lore. [laughter] 00:12:58.240 --> 00:13:02.079 Captain, stop. Stop. I surrender. 00:13:01.423 --> 00:13:08.079 [snorts] I need to close this now before I get in trouble with my wife. It has Gemini AI 00:13:06.399 --> 00:13:12.959 integration apparently, which might explain why it's kind of an idiot. But 00:13:10.399 --> 00:13:16.800 you know who's not an idiot? You. So, you'll have no trouble finding the Red 00:13:14.560 --> 00:13:20.240 Magic 11 Pro at the link in the video description.
