Sure there are things you can do much better on a computer since you can use a keyboard and a mouse but there are many others you can easily do on your phone and even feel more comfortable due to the beautiful screens on phones nowadays.

        If people want to watch movies on their "small" smartphones or plugged to a TV, they do it.
        I don't believe smartphones are weak.
        When Samsung introduced Dex and other brands introduced similar things, it gave people hope for some productivity, even if it's not the power of a MacBook Pro, MacPro etc.

People rely on their weak Android and iOS devices way too much, they're addicted to them and probably use them 24/7. If you're serious about consuming lots of content or productivity and efficiency or anything that doesn't require you to carry out simple, quick, mundane tasks then get a real computer lol

Unless you're a frequent flyer or traveller and/or enjoy watching lengthy TV shows and movies on your tiny phone which causes eye strain and discomfort after a long period of time. Just watch it on a laptop or TV like a normal person, your deteriorating eyes will thank you.

                      Mr. Electronics, 18 Jul 2019what's mk i and mk ii?Mk.I = Version 1 = ASUS RoG Phone
                      Mk.II = Version 2 = ASUS RoG Phone2

                      PS: I think my large limits are:
                      (166 x 77 x 9.9mm dimensions)
                      ~5.0 inch 13:9 or Root2 or IMAX
                      ~5.8 inch 16:9
                      ~6.3 inch 18:9
                      ~6.8 inch 20:9
                      ~7.1 inch 21:9
                      ....otherwise it becomes obtrusive/less mobile for me to carry.

                      PS: I think my small limits are:
                      (120 x 60 x 5.0mm dimensions)
                      ~3.8 inch 13:9 or Root2 or IMAX
                      ~4.4 inch 16:9
                      ~4.8 inch 18:9
                      ~5.3 inch 20:9
                      ~5.5 inch 21:9
                      ....otherwise it becomes too small for my fat thumbs to use.

                      PS: I think my preferred size is:
                      (154 x 74 x 7.9mm dimensions)
                      ~4.7 inch 13:9 or Root2 or IMAX
                      ~5.5 inch 16:9
                      ~6.0 inch 18:9
                      ~6.5 inch 20:9
                      ~6.8 inch 21:9
                      ....this hits the sweet spot of big screen and small body.

                      AND my wishlist/intanglibles are:
                      - Flat display and No Camera Hump
                      - Slim Bezels to hold the device (NO notch/hole)
                      - Front-firing stereo loudspeakers
                      - Headphone Jack (and QuadDAC if possible)
                      - microSD Slot
                      - IP68 waterproofing and/or Removable Battery
                      - Access to bootloader/root/Custom Roms
                      - Decent Battery Life, Performance, and Cameras

                      Fellow readers, what is your preferred size of screen and dimensions???

                          I don't get it. Asus is still not able to release the Zenfone 6 properly. They haven't been able to provide stock of it for months, and yet a new phone is out? How long are we going to have to wait until the ROG Phon2 is released?

                            120Hz display, 5800 mAh battery, tons of accessories, top of the line cooling (helps in 4k recording too) and most importantly RGB. Love it, proper gaming phone!

                              If this supports a microSD card, then it's a definite buy for me. I gave up my Samsung Galaxy S9 (with a 200GB microSD card) for the ROG Phone. 128GB isn't enough in this day and age. I would have even considered the 512GB version but can't seem to buy anywhere here in the UK.

                                    Go for red magic 3 it's cheaper and you don't need sd card if you buy 128gb plus fan and liquid cooling

                                      Couldn't the fingerprint scanner be on the side as well instead of underdisplay

                                      I don't like oled but if this is at 120hz for an oled that's impressive

                                      But if they went 5th generation igzo LCD for that 120hz the battery would be god-like

                                      And it wouldn't have touch jitters in games that oled is known for

                                        rails, 18 Jul 2019My OnePlus 7 Pro also don't have notch. Its display will be... moreI prefer 18:9 and it's equivalent to 6" 16:9 screen
