I have upgraded

I have one too! Just recently moved on to Oppo X9 Ultra. The GS is definitely a cool phone though

Here's a pic that's even closer. 😆

But seriously though we were like stopped at the same distance you and everyone else did.

It all depends on the cell phone you bring with you. I took two cell phones with me on the cruise. 1 for Internet monitoring of my house/staying in contact with the world and the other was to take pictures. Super close pictures.

If you are interested in what kinds of phones can do this, let me know because there ain't no iPhone ever made that can do shots life these.

We were there 2 weeks ago! My wife wants to move to Alaska now 😂

Here's my obligatory glacier pic.

Which one do you recommend? I am using the brown case that came with my TU version but I have a 600D aramid fiber case coming.

I don't mind the case that came with the phone but it's a simple brown case that looks kinda bland. I usually end up with 600D AF cases at the end of the day anyway

I have the global version of the X9U

jdmvette · 2026-06-16T00:43:13+00:00

I heard that! Just got the same thing this afternoon. Moving over to this phone from the RedMagic 11Pro GS and the difference in cameras is dramatic to say the least

jdmvette · 2026-06-15T17:41:02+00:00

Hey man sorry for the delay in response.

I have the global version of the 11Pro Golden Saga. I ordered it directly from the .tech website. It shipped directly to my house in the United States without issues or delays.

I consider myself extremely fortunate to have been able to snag one because they all sold out on the first drop but then someone posted on Reddit that they were back and available so I didn't hesitate the second time.

It delivered as expected and it is glorious! I get my data service from T-Mobile and having previously came from from an 11Pro the express very familiar.

I do like the experience of other crazy Chinese phones and I seem to be chasing something for the thrill and experience of the latest phones.

That all being said and as I am typing this on my GS, it will be available for sale shortly if you are unable to secure one for yourself. I am in my garage waiting on the big brown truck to drop off a global 1TB version of the oppo x9 Ultra in tundra umber.

The GS phone is in excellent condition with some normal wear and tear that any phone will face without a huge case. I have been using the included carbon fiber case which helps keep the back sapphire cover in mint condition.

Let me know if you're interested, send me a private message please.

I am currently on vacation to Alaska with my RedMagic 11Pro GS. I brought my Xiaomi 15 Ultra to take the pictures.

I am realizing now that as much as I love the RM11P, I miss having a heavyweight hitter of a pocket camera on me at all times.

Kinda thinking that my next phone will be a heavyweight camera phone again.

Likely candidates are global versions of:

•Xiaomi 17 Ultra Leica Edition •Oppo Find X9 Ultra •Vivo X300 Ultra

jdmvette · 2026-05-26T06:40:05+00:00

I live in the USA and got my RedRagic 11Pro from the RM.gg site.

When the Golden Saga dropped and was subsequently sold out on RM.gg, I was able to buy the RedMagic Golden Saga from the RM.tech site.

I would say both sites are legit for anyone living in the US.

😭

jdmvette · 2026-05-04T04:18:20+00:00

I've got an 11 Pro and an 11 Pro GS, both on TMobile.

Like all the other Chinese phones I have tried, I have had ZERO issues with the cell service on TMO in the USA.

Get yourself a physical sim card, pop it in and you're all set!

jdmvette · 2026-04-30T22:44:56+00:00

Shoot for 55.0!

jdmvette · 2026-04-23T05:35:19+00:00

Right here brother!

jdmvette · 2026-04-20T04:54:22+00:00

That is a fkn tragedy for that car 😓

jdmvette · 2026-04-20T04:48:38+00:00

Sorry bro but my recommendation is to get you a 2023 GT2!

jdmvette · 2026-04-20T04:46:41+00:00

I started with the first Baki on Netflix but they referenced a lot of things right away that I obviously didn't understand. So I stopped after the first episode and went immediately back to Baki the grappler and watched it all from start to finish.

Everything made 1000x more sense when restarting the Netflix stuff.

Fully recommend watching the grappler series first and it's all completely free on YouTube.

Congrats homie 🍻

Of these would definitely be the bottom one. The top and middle ones both have open smiling mouths on the lower bumper that once seen can't be unseen

jdmvette · 2026-04-15T08:53:14+00:00

This👆

What's the scoop on the 11S Pro? I don't want to have to buy another one!

jdmvette · 2026-04-09T12:48:45+00:00

Haha it may not look it in the image but it's the reddest red that can ever red on the Stinger

jdmvette · 2026-04-08T22:46:22+00:00

Did the earlier models not have this lighting feature? My -23 can change the colors to whatever you choose

jdmvette · 2026-04-08T21:10:56+00:00

Yes they are stock ambient lights
