Mid range user perspective
I have been using it for some days, the 8 gen 3 is somehow not draining your battery too fast as compare to my older mediatek 8100. The screen is still very nice with 165hz refresh rate
The older 8 gen xx also warm, if not hot
The speaker is loud n clear
Punch hole? I can live with it since my previous phones are all with punch hole
And why I chose this ROG 8? Because it's the cheapest 8 gen 3 in here. Mi14 with smaller screen and iqoo 12 is $100 more expensive
Of course my perspective doesn't represent those who used gaming phone like the previous ROG7 or Red Magic with below the screen front camera. But it's comfortable to grab n grip and not too heavy

According to Aliexpress shops:
- Global Rom is Tencent Games Verison (CN version: we will open the box to install Global ROM and Google Play before delivery), comes with US charger, support manual update only.
- HK version is Republic of Gamers Version (Global Version) comes with UK charger, support automatic update.

Attention! People do not buy Tencent versions from Aliexpress, These are intended for China mainland only. They lack some GSM radio bands needed in Europe or Americas. Also OTA updates doesn't work at all and service centers will not repair chinese phones.

Anonymous, 08 Feb 2024If you look at the pro model they have a 1TB versionCost way more though. Would've bought this one if they had micro sd support. Many phone makers don't feel like tapping into that market nowadays though.

2020 Asus was way better than 2022+ Asus, including their Zephyrus G series.

Some reviewers say tha loudspeakers are much downgraded in model 8. No more iconic ROG sound.
