Not support 90fps on mobile legends 😭

    I was just browsing here about this phone coz I've seen it used by my fav streamer on facebook & yt! His name is Narco. I hope I'd still get one of these 3 years from now.

The OS doesn't let you get the potential advantages of its specifications/capabilities. On the other hand, in those years Android has almost overcome its lags. Now a days Android has surpassed the IOS in significant areas along side you are able get potential advantages out of its specifications. In Android world you are always free to unlock its unleash power.

But you can say, IOS has better integration between hardware and software. And, because the hardware and the software is designed and controlled by same company.

        From to the very beginning I uses both iPhone and Android phone for my purposes. In early stage of iPhone it seemed, everything was very nice and snappy in iPhone even with the low specification. But now that era has gone, currently there are not too many apple integrated (specially designed for IOS) apps like before. Once upon a time someone could compare ISO to a beautiful garden and Android to the open world.

        But now, in IOS it feels like you have got too many power but you can't/unable to use that power due to OS restrictions. Seems like waste of specifications, seems like the IOS

          I hate when I read these articles about Red Magic and they talk about the battery percentage. It's there. It has been since the original red magic 5g. It's in the settings. Turn it on. That's all it takes. Please, write a review on something you know nothing about. Oh and Tiggerator, you called people who buy these gaming games idiots and then mention that you use a phone that cost twice as much with lower specs. Yes, they're the idiots. What is wrong with people!

            Wow! Reading people’s opinions on this website is a stress killer.

              All gaming phones are turds. I use my pc for gaming and my phone for no surprise calls and text. 144hz on a phone screen lol. I guess there are enough fidiots to buy these stupid devices to warrant them. I'm very happy with my note 20 ultra, keep this piece of crap.

                Johnny , 16 Sep 2020Only you think every android crushes IOS. If you know anyth... moreFun fact, you just bought a not so finalized phone, complain to the manufacturer and get the phone returned if i were you, nubia is a great brand, especially all the specs they gave you for a low price, the os for the 5g, when you bought it, is still most likely unstable, due to it being new. you dont have to rant about iphone being better, its basically an overpriced ps3 handheld ps3 with extra luxury due to the branding

If you know anything about techs you know IOS has better software + hardware starting from day one ! Go educate yourself before commenting on something you don't know about !
                  PS : I came to see if anyone has as many bugs and problems I have on this stupid RM5G I bought just for gaming. Don't buy this device or you'll buy it and regret it after few week of heavy gaming !

                              I just got my phone yesterday in Australia, after pre-ordering through their website on 28 August.

                              It's a great phone! Very high quality, and for me personally I really like it, better than ROG Phone 2 I had last year.

                              After deciding to buy this over ROG Phone 3, I am really happy.

Doesn't matter if it throttles 2 hours later or so, but it just makes the whole user experience feel cheap. Lack of aftersales and service support add insult to the injury.

                                      It appears as if GSM Arena has taken off download speed as one of the benchmarks for comparing phones.
