I replaced my Pixel 9 Pro with this $700 Android phone for weeks - and didn't regret it


The Redmagic 10 Air offers a compelling combination of power and style, making it a strong option for a daily phone—if you're willing to accept some compromises.

It's great at capturing detail and brightness in shots, but the lack of contrast and oversaturation put the imaging system a tier below more premium handsets like the iPhone 16 Pro and Samsung Galaxy S25 series. I'd highly recommend you visit Redmagic's spec page and check with your carrier to see if its LTE/5G data can be received properly by the phone.
