Gaming smartphone... with those games available at the Play Store? Let's hope more game developers make mobile port to their big title games. I've been tired waiting some of my favorite PC games to arrive on mobile platform. Hopefully without IAPs or non game breaking IAPs.

Current mobile games only seize my time for shortwhile thanks to P2W IAPs. I'd prefer one time paid games (which only few that caught my interest) than those s**t I faced.

    Vegetaholic, 16 Mar 2018Any gaming phone will be better than RazorNah... using it as daily driver and netflix on the go with reasonable battery life and managable heat is like the saying "once you go black, you're going to need a wheel chair" with 120 hz display. gaming is just a moniker, doesn't really have any weigh on me.

          Shark? Baby shark.. Do do do..
          In reality does it come with IP68 water-resistant? Don't be shy away from water, baby shark.

            Anonymous, 16 Mar 2018Qualcomm just bumps the Mhz, changes a number and calls it ... moreFunny my lowly essential is faster than a S9 running exynos ( not in benchmark but in real life performance of loading games opening app and UI navigation )

            So i dont really care about benchmark scoore anymore.

                    Anonymous, 16 Mar 2018Qualcomm just bumps the Mhz, changes a number and calls it ... moreAre you talking about the 845? it has less than 10% higher combined clock than the 835, is it only 10% faster?. Or you are talking about the 625,626,630,632? a SOC is much more than a cpu, do you know that?

                      AnonD-743635, 16 Mar 2018But your phone will never lag until 2024 at least!Don't underestimate developers, they get lazier every year as more powerful CPU's hide more unoptimized code.

                        Qualcomm just bumps the Mhz, changes a number and calls it a new SOC. That's why is more and more lagging behind Samsung Exynos not to mention Apple's A series.

                                    Hope they keep blackshark name its cool and 32GB is probably for testing purposes or something it should have atleast 128GB and put atleast 5000mah battery

                                      Love the Community, 16 Mar 2018Even after all the Bluetooth 5.0 with aptX HD?ESPECIALLY with AptX HD. They've been reducing the latency but it's still too much for games. You don't notice it with videos because the audio is played earlier than the video, effectively cancelling the latency. But that's just not possible with games since you cannot predict when you or the CPU will do an action causing a sound, like collecting something.

                                        It's actually good to push variant with 32 gb rom.For someone that is enough,and the price will be lower for sure.
