Asus ROG Phone in for review

16 December 2018
The wide array of versatile accessories may make this the first gaming phone that's more than a flagship with edgy branding.

Anonymous, 16 Dec 2018What game is that?That's free fire, the pubg ripoff that (unfortunately) has more ratings than pubg on the play store. With half the players (yes, 50), half the mechanics/realism (the guns don't even have recoil, there's aim assistance that makes the game very easy), and half the engine (unity lol) because it looks like literal ass yet people overrate it more than everything.

    You seriously had to play that piece of s*** free fire. Why didn't you just fire up pubg mobile?

      Who cares about this failure of a phone. Every one of these so called "gaming" phones have no focus on optimization and only care about the benchmarks (which aren't that impressive). Any phone with a SD845 that focuses to some extent on optimization, destroys this in speed and performance. Only a label-slave would go for a phone like this.

                                anon, 17 Dec 2018Why would you use joystick to play shooter game,lmaoAutoAim is strong!!

                                  I would love to own one of these bad boys but I can only ever afford lower-mid tier handsets.

                                  I'm not a fan of Android gaming, I think the games suck for the most part, but I am a big emulator user so would still get "gaming" use out of it. More than anything though I love the styling and the no compromise hardware. It's a huge breath of fresh air in this world of stale Chinese iPhone knock offs.

                                      "The “silicon lottery” has arrived on mobile."

                                      The lottery arrived long ago, GSMArena! Back in the days of the Note 3, there were multiple BINs of the Snapdragon 800 and 801 chips.

                                        Pocophone F1 + Flydigi Wee 2 can do same, except for the speakers, I guess.
