Red Magic eyes May launch for Gaming Tablet 5 Pro and 11S Pro+: Snapdragon 8 Elite and advanced cooling in focus

Red Magic is preparing to expand its gaming lineup again, with a new leak pointing to a May unveiling for two products in China: the Red Magic Gaming Tablet 5 Pro and the Red Magic 11S Pro+ phone. The timing would push the tablet’s debut beyond earlier expectations of an April announcement.

The information comes from tipster Smart Pikachu, who claims both devices will use Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite platform.

The leak also highlights an emphasis on thermal management, including air cooling and a combined air-and-liquid solution aimed at sustained performance.

Tablet specs point to speed

Recent reports suggest the Red Magic Gaming Tablet 5 Pro will feature a 9-inch OLED display with a 2 400 x 1 504 resolution. The same leak claims a refresh rate reaching 185 Hz, positioning it squarely for high-frame-rate gaming.

Power is rumored to come from an 8 300 mAh battery, alongside configurations that could scale up to 24 GB of RAM and 1 TB of storage. If accurate, those options would put it among the most aggressive Android tablet builds targeted at mobile gamers.

Design and features still emerging

Leaks also point to transparent design elements and RGB lighting, consistent with Red Magic’s gaming-first styling. Another claim suggests an on-device AI model could be included, though details about what it enables have not been pinned down.

For the Red Magic 11S Pro+, specifications remain limited, but the device is widely expected to be an iterative upgrade over the Red Magic 11 Pro+. The same leak indicates shoulder triggers for gaming, reinforcing the brand’s focus on physical controls and competitive play.

Red Magic has not confirmed launch dates or final specifications, and availability outside China is still unclear. More concrete details are likely to surface as official teasers ramp up closer to May.
