        Ok... This phone is pretty impressive. But having it for more than 2 weeks I can say that all of ASUS gaming claims are true and the triggers/X Mode work really well. It is missing quite a few things though: No Wi-FI calling, a good dialler with Caller ID, no text wrap in browsers i.e everything is small in desktop mode, 4G only reaches half the speed of a Samsung Note 8 using the same sim in the same location, however is double the speed in 4G+ areas (wierd!?), Limited clipboard, no badges on apps (just a blue dot) for notifications,

          is this sold with accessories?


            It is useless for gaming cause any phone with 855 will do same job, but hood as a flagship phone without good camera

              I was blown away the first time I try 120hz monitor. Now we have a phone capable of doing that?! But can the phone even run AAA games in 120hz? I have SD845 6gb phone that still cant run well HDR+Ultra PUGB, SD855 is like a minor upgrade to 845.

                                  120 Hz is the thing that attracts me the most about this, easily the most interesting spec. Nice hardware overall.
