RedMagic 11 will boast a world first
It will boast an upgraded built-in cooling fan, which will allow it to have an IP68 dust and water resistance rating. The combination of an active fan and an IP rating was pioneered last month by the Oppo K13 Turbo and K13 Turbo Pro, but those two are only water resistant.
The RedMagic 11 will be the first ever smartphone to have an active cooling fan as well as both water and dust resistance.
While this information was leaked by Digital Chat Station on Weibo, RedMagic's General Manager Jiang Chao has confirmed it, so it's official now.

This Apple Vision Pro clone is lighter and cheaper, but you couldn't buy it even if you wanted to
Apple's Vision Pro headset is an ambitious product, but it costs $3,400 and weighs over 600 g, which makes it a tough sell. Chinese company Vivo has just announced its entry into the mixed reality space with an intriguing device that has its own caveats. During its 30th anniversary event, Vivo unveiled what it calls the Discovery Edition of Vivo Vision. That's a mixed reality headset, which at first appears to be just a copy of the Apple Vision Pro. However, the device is quite different, most importantly, because you can't buy it yet. For now, it's only available for hands-on demo experiences in select stores across China. Vivo's headset is also significantly lighter and smaller than the Vision Pro , which appears to be a point of pride for the company. In its official announcement of the device, Vivo doesn't miss the opportunity to take a jab at Apple. Weighing just 398g with a height of 83 mm and a thickness of 40 mm, it is 26% smaller than the industry average, improving overall August 2025The new headset has dual 8K Micro-OLED displays, which support 94% DCI-P3 color coverage, and 1.5-degree precision eye-tracking. The fingertip gesture recognition works across 26 degrees of freedom within a vertical range of 175 degrees. The chipset is Qualcomm's Snapdragon XR2+, running the OriginOS Vision software. The company says the headset supports 'tap-through-screen' interactions and 'move-and-pinch' gestures, along with immersive movie watching, spatial sports replays, and multi-window productivity no official information about the price of the headset, but a report by Gizmochina claims it could cost 10,000 yuan, which would be about $1,395 when directly converted. The device is also likely to be available only in China when it gets released. While the Vivo Vision isn't a direct threat to Apple's spatial computing ambitions, it's a sign of changing times. I believe that's only the first of a wave of devices that will offer similar experiences to the Vision Pro , but at lower prices, and eventually one of those could reach the global markets. That's why Apple must think of ways to make an affordable version of its mixed reality device and utilize its ecosystem advantage. Good news everyone! Over the past year we've been working on an exciting passion project of ours and we're thrilled to announce it will be ready to release in just a few short months. "Iconic Phones: Revolution at Your Fingertips" is a must-have coffee table book for every tech-head that will bring you on a journey to relive the greatest technological revolution of the 21st century.

A rumored new Huawei Pura X foldable grows in size – and you'll be able to enjoy media even more
Remember the Huawei Pura X? It's allegedly growing in size, per latest rumors. It's not clear if it's going to be called Huawei Pura X2, but that doesn't really matter right now, does it?As preliminary information has it, the next Huawei Pura will be wider than the original. There isn't a premiere date set as well, but tipsters from the Far East expect it until the end of 2025. That's a bit odd, given that the original Pura X was released in April the leaks point at a larger, 8-inch foldable display. That's much bigger than the original Pura X's 6.3-inch screen. The new 8-inch display would be (almost) stepping in tablet territory, but 8 inches is what many book style foldables like the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and the newly released Pixel 10 Pro Fold leak also suggests that the foldable will carry forward the compact footprint of the Pura X, while making minor adjustments to its external PhoneArena readers know that the original super fancy foldable got us pretty excited a few months ago: Why? Well, it's because of its form factor. Image by PhoneArena Huawei's Pura X might not win awards for its name, but the concept behind it is one of the smartest in the foldable space. Unlike many flip-style foldables that stretch into an awkwardly narrow 22:9 aspect ratio, the Pura X unfolds into a much more practical 16:10 slab. That makes it far more natural to use and, more importantly, perfect for watching videos. The wider canvas means fewer black bars and a much larger, more immersive viewing experience. This design brings another major benefit: better battery life. One of the biggest drawbacks of traditional flip foldables has been their cramped dimensions, which limit battery capacity. The Pura X solves this by adopting a wider form factor, giving it enough room to fit a significantly larger cell. With a 4,700 mAh battery, it offers nearly 20% more capacity than Samsung's Galaxy Z Flip 6, which is limited to just 4,000 mAh. The new Galaxy Z Flip 7 upped that to 4,300 mAh, but the original Pura X is still a bit ahead. Huawei has also gone a step further with the camera setup. While Samsung has released seven generations of Flip phones without ever adding a telephoto lens, the Pura X manages to include a triple-camera system with a 3.5x telephoto sensor. So, the next Huawei Pura has definitely got my attention now! Let's hope for a global release this time. Good news everyone!
