I will ignore this phone. Asus sucks with updates for ROG series. No VoLTE no VoWiFi. Terrible.

Adding Thermal throttling and management is a great way to judge a phones gaming performance and other high cpu usage performance for long time. Please do this in all phones from now on. Pleasei beg you. I am sure other people would be happy as well. Also if there was this test before buying s10plus(eynos version) i would never buy it. Pubg lags like crazy after 1 hour of ganing. Throttling is so much worse in s10 plus

How do u want a phone who... moreBingo. Weight is the ONE compromise I'm ok with making when cramming a giant battery, headphone jack, and heat dissipation. I also agree that if it has a headphone jack, wireless charging is not necessary and IP rating would've been nice for an expensive phone but it's not a DEALBREAKER.
This is a freakin' solid phone and it pisses me off that the US version has garbage LTE bands in terms of coverage (no bands 25, 66, or 71 for T-Mobile; remembering that the T-Mobile and Sprint merger has been approved).

I dont understand how Rog Phone II got a rating of only 4.4 while phones like Note 10 are getting 4.7 even when Rog offers more than the other phones at same price!

I don’t mean to sound mean or anything, i really like your reviews but this specific one felt a little... off?
It sounded suspiciously positive and it was much longer than other reviews, which is understandable with such a feature rich phone, but it was, much, MUCH longer.

Besides, The ROG Phone 2 is a gaming phone, and thus OP7 Pro makes a better alternative than the Mi9. The 90hz 1440p large notchless display, stereo speakers, bigger battery & faster charging all make it a better phone for gaming than the Mi9. Then there's the added benefit of it having better cameras too.
The Mi9 is cheaper though, so it has that going for it.

Best phone of the year easily goes to Asus ROG Phone II. This thing is what defines cutting-edge technology and pushes the boundaries of what phones are capable of. 12GB RAM and 1TB is totally overkill so I'd prefer going with the base variant. Now if only if I can get the Tencent edition at around MSRP as the markup resellers sell this phone is excessive.

Amazing all around phone. Between top of the line specs and 120Hz display I can't really find a fault with it.
Of course I wouldn't even bother with playing games on a phone because mobile gaming is complete nonsense - the lack of games and bad controls being the prime reasons why.
For gaming on the go the only real option is the Nintendo Switch with its great library ranging from first party Nintendo games to ports like Witcher 3. What good games Android has? Literally only emulated titles up to PS2/GCN era and some 3DS ports. Oh and Infinity Engine games ports. Notice how all of these were originally released on real gaming platforms like PC or consoles. Freemium mobile games and gatchas are an insult to what is being released on other platforms.
So in a nutshell RPG Phone II is a great device even for people who don't want a 'gaming' phone. Anyone spending 900 EUR on a gaming platform with no games is a madman. Compared to other 900 EUR phones the RPG P2 is still a good choice even in normal tasks.

Asus has shown immense progress in the past few years. Both their Zenfone flagship lineup & the ROG Phone lineup are delivering awesome phones back to back. They certainly deserve appreciation & recognition for it!
