      veryangrynerd, 16 Aug 2021Mi 11 that has a 480hz touch sampling rate. Hmm that's... moreFaster sampling rate doesn't always mean it will have the lowest latency. Same with faster refresh rate not all 144hz screens are equal even when they are from the same manufacturer.

          Mi 11 that has a 480hz touch sampling rate. Hmm that's very interesting this news right here.

            Gotta admit, as someone who is an avid fan of the ROG Phone series, using the ROG Phone 2 myself, I think this is an unnecessary "upgrade". but if the 5s will replace the vanilla versions then, the only 2 things I am most concern about are:
            - pricing
            - if it still heats up like an over like what other ROG Phone 5 owners claim

                rizki1, 16 Aug 2021Gimmick for real, you don't need gaming phones over $1... moreNo android Phone exist which can play all games at full speed, even sd 888 struggle to run some games. Because your phone can play some games at full speed doesn't mean it can play all games.

                      Anonymous, 16 Aug 2021Doesn't my X7 Max/GT Neo also have 360Hz touch sampling!?? It could have 380hz touch sampling, that doesnt mean it's faster. Maybe yours came in at 30ms with it's combination of specs, you follow?

                        Everyone knows the gaming phones will always stand out of the rest they will always have the faster and latest chips... We can see thing coming miles away the minute they announced the 888+ asus and the rest of the gaming devices jumped right on it....Even samsung didint bring the 888+ only gaming devices.....Its common sense...

                                No matter what so ever the specifications on ROG 5s. It will be useless if the phone split into two. Asus should focus on fixing that split problem first 🥴🥴

                                      All gimmicks, the soul less people at Asus didn't bother with providing after sales support for an in warranty product. My ROG 2 kept on wishing for an aero cooler 2 which never came back in stock throughout in India. Logistically and logically it would have been awesome to have added support for ROG2 in aeroactive cooler 3 as it was in stock all along but they never did that.
