Want. That is all.
Why? Because this phone has real design character. Ok the gaming orientated design may not appeal to everyone but at least it actually has a design. Uncompromising hardware turned up to 11. I love it.

2. Flip Mechanism takes more room for motor.
3. Good bezel for loud front facing speakers."
1. Not by much or not at all if efficiency optimizations are developed.
2. Of course, but then again there is only a 0.3mm difference in thickness between this & the Zenfone6 with 1K more/less in battery capacity so there could be a compromise in making the battery 5 or 5.5K or just have the total width under 10mm keeping the 6K battery.
3. A smaller bezel is still possible if the screen size was increased sliding the speakers under the the display with a edge speaker cutout just like in the Zenfone 6 or other phones.
Also, I somehow overlooked the omition of the microsd slot so that's another reason why I won't be getting this.

--> right now, even for a PC gamer 1440p res on 32 inch is more than enough or almost perfect, next step from this res is 4K. There's no need resolution going further than 1440p on tiny screen like phones, even to regular people they cant tell the difference between 720p movies against 1080p movies in their 13 inch laptop
2. Camera containing a flip mechanism like on the Zenfone 6 eliminating the selfie cam gaining extra internal space.
--> putting flip/sliding mechanism for camera is actually taking more space on phones as this mechanism needs rotating motor module to flip/slide the camera, check out Zenfone 6 teardown vids at youtube, their camera module is using enormous space including that motor mechanism
3. Decreased bezel size.
--> from a perspective of gamers, this is no need as they care less for it, and they also prefer minimum bezels for better grip on landscape mode and putting front stereo speakers

Intense sales tactics and skeezy marketing have been around in so many industries for decades but we are mostly all immune to it by now. This article covers the video and tactics perfectly.

There is nothing for the phones that can run 120 frames per second so you have just that 120Hz on 60 frames per second slide show like you say

Very innovative phone, claps for Asus for going the extra mile although I wish the following was implemented:
1. A screen with a much higher resolution of 1440P.
2. Camera containing a flip mechanism like on the Zenfone 6 eliminating the selfie cam gaining extra internal space.
3. Decreased bezel size.
Not asking for much as this phone is 97% perfect.

Anonymous, 22 Jul 2019Did you ever hear about emulators?Oh yeah nothing like raw 15 year old games, buy a 150$ for emulators, until they make real games for phones that match pc or console in quality there is zero point to paying an absurd price for shitty mobile games
