Quick update for anyone still thinking about it: the REDMAGIC 11 Pro+ x Wuthering Waves Chisa Edition is still in stock on PandaWagon right now.

This is one of those collab phones that feels a lot better once you see how well the base hardware and the character design actually match. The red-black look fits Chisa really well, and honestly, a red REDMAGIC just makes sense.

Main version currently listed:

• 16GB RAM
• 512GB storage
• 6.85" 144Hz display
• gaming-focused cooling
• 7500mAh battery

It also comes with the themed gift box and collab extras, so it feels much more like a full collector release than just a regular phone with a different back design.

If you missed it earlier and were waiting to see whether stock would disappear fast, it’s still available here: https://panda-wagon.com/redmagic-x-wuthering-waves-chisa-limited-edition-smartphone/

Out of the recent REDMAGIC collab phones, this is honestly one of the easiest ones to understand visually.

I get why this phone gets mixed reactions, but after using the REDMAGIC 11 Pro for a while, I also get why people still recommend it so often.

What it does well, it does really well.

The performance is strong, the cooling actually feels useful instead of just being there for marketing, the battery life is solid, and the whole phone feels built around gaming in a way that most regular flagships just aren’t.

That’s really the main reason it still makes sense to me. It doesn’t feel like a normal phone trying to act like a gaming phone. It feels like a gaming phone first.

And honestly, that also helps explain why the collab / limited versions of this series get so much attention. If you already like the design direction of REDMAGIC, then character editions like the Wuthering Waves versions become even easier to appreciate because the base device already fits that style.

Of course, I wouldn’t pretend it’s perfect. If someone cares most about camera quality, long software support, or the most polished all-around experience, I can understand why they’d look elsewhere.

But if gaming is your main priority, I still think the REDMAGIC 11 Pro is a genuinely easy phone to like. It has a clear identity, and for the right kind of user, that matters more than trying to be good at everything.

For people who’ve used it, what’s the part you ended up liking more than expected?

Some collab products feel more like collector items. Others are the kind of things you can actually use every day and still enjoy long after the hype wears off.

That’s why Hatsune Miku gear is interesting to me, especially for desk setups.

If you were building a Miku-themed setup, which piece would you buy first:

• keyboard
• mouse
• headset
• something else entirely

I feel like each one makes sense for a different reason.

A keyboard feels like the centerpiece. A mouse is probably the easiest daily-use choice. A headset might be the most fun if the design is strong enough.

So I’m curious how other people think about it.

If you could only start with one piece, what would it be? Are you choosing based on looks, practicality, or just which item feels the most “Miku” to you?

I know gaming phones are always easy to criticize because people immediately bring up the camera or software polish.

But after spending some real time with the REDMAGIC 11 Pro, I honestly get why it still has so many people backing it.

What stands out most to me is that it actually delivers on the things a gaming phone is supposed to do well:

• strong sustained performance
• cooling that feels noticeably more serious than normal phones
• excellent battery life
• a display that just feels made for gaming
• shoulder triggers and overall gaming-focused design that don’t feel like gimmicks

That’s the part I think matters. It doesn’t just look like a gaming phone, it actually feels built around that purpose.

Is it perfect? No. If someone wants the safest all-around flagship, the best camera, or the most polished mainstream software experience, I still wouldn’t say this is the obvious answer.

But if someone’s priority is gaming first and they want a phone that feels different from the usual flagship formula, I still think the REDMAGIC 11 Pro is one of the easier phones to recommend.

It feels like one of those devices that makes a lot more sense once you stop judging it like a camera phone and start judging it like what it actually is.

For people who’ve used it, what’s been the biggest surprise for you after real daily use?
