Realme really do put out some amazing phones. Crazy to think the Realme GT 2 pro cost £699 (12GB ram/256GB storage) and then the s21 FE which launched in Feb (about 6 months too late) costs the same

              AnonD-1033007, 21 May 2022Nothing can beat the name ,,Xiaomi Redmi K50G Mercedes-AMG ... moreAlthough the name is long, at least people can easily know the K50G is a special edition phone featuring the Mercedes F1 team.

              Neanwhile, the 'GT Master Explorer Edition' are just a bunch of words stringed together, with no relation to one another. Can you tell me what does Gran Turismo (GT) have in connection with Master Explorer? What does the term 'Master Explorer' even mean anyway for phone that has no IP ratings and couldn't even survive a light splash of rain?

                AnonD-1033007, 21 May 2022Nothing can beat the name ,,Xiaomi Redmi K50G Mercedes-AMG ... moreI thought the oficial name was "Redmi K50 Gaming Edition Mercedes-AMG F1"...this is the name GSMARENA uses for this phone

                          Day 1 purchase of the ROG 6 Pro.

                            it's pointless for a new gen ROG to have just minor cpu upgrades.

I don't play mobile games though so I have not pushed my phone's capability to its limit.

                                      Would tell people especially American and Asian to stay away from Asus it's been 5 years and they still have the motherboard problem.And I am only talking about Rog , you can go with Zenfone but try to never go with rog. I bought 2 of them both screen died within 5 months and don't even get me started about their after sales service.

                                        Wish Poco F4 would come with sd 8+ gen 1 instead of sd 870 again.
