Sin, 23 Aug 2022It's great to people good response in the comments and... moreyou must be commenting on a different phone. The Rog 6 Pro has a headphone jack. It is also splash proof. A built in fan is cool to have, but if dust, water, liquids, sand or anything else gets inside a built-in fan, will it die or is it dust and waterproof? It is better to have an external fan like the Rog 6 Pro that you can detach and replace if it breaks.
This phone is really amazing. Super fast charging and with 2 different charge ports, you can charge from the bottom if you are gaming at the same time so it wont get in the way of your hand. Super long battery life, haptic feedback, responsive air triggers, super fast GPU/CPU that do not throttle after 10 mins of gameplay (looking at Apple and Samsung devices that do throttle when playing games). The main camera is fine. But if you are into photography, you should never be using a cellphone. No matter what iphone, samsung or other cellphone you pick, the lense quality, lense width and aperature are super weak and low quality compared to a real DSLR or Mirrorless.

Better buy Nubia latest redmagic 8 pro with Snapdragon 8 gen 2 CPU which yep is bit of better than gen 1 Snapdragon CPU's and all of that for price much more abordable.

What is the better phone? The 6 Pro or The 6 Pro Diablo Immortal Edition? Is it basically the same specs with the Diablo Immortal add ONS??? I see the immortal edition is the newest release November 2022.... Is there no sd card for external memory on both of these phones? When will it get Android 13 and will it run 5G on The AT&T Network in the USA or only 4G LTE????

SIM 1, Vibrate, LR button, bottom speaker, fingerprint sensor all broken and fixed under guarantee. 2 months later most of the problem came back. no more guarantee. so 2 years software update is more than enough..

Sin, 23 Aug 2022It's great to people good response in the comments and... moreWhile you can't pocket a pc, I agree with you on the other features like sd card and jack. Gamer phones should be the last ones to remove them. There's too many apple wannabees for mainstream consumers already.

It's great to people good response in the comments and smart people
I know this should be obvious but mainstream people often don't realise
The asu Rog 6 pro definitely over priced for it's specs
The 2 android versions updates are a bit of a saw spot and android os support really should be better but honestly it's not end of the would android games run even on android emulator with android 7 it's hardware what matters mostly
One could definitely build a pc and spec more ram & storage it better for 2000 pound so it does depend on what price the phone is in your market on how worth it is for u
The 512gb storage small amount given the price tag
I dislike the lack of built in fans also
The screen on the back is generally a good thing about the phone one additional feature that other Gaming phones don't have
but they sure don't make phone like they did in the old days where a flagship was like 500 pound
And the removal of nice stuff like removable battery's SD cards slots headphone jack etc sucks great see us in agreement here
Yeah best solution too water proofing or making a phone more durable is a water proof case and screen protector

Waste of money for this worst flagship mobile they send software update and damage our motherboard and we have to pay for that

The 512 16 gb ram version of this phone is 4000$
An rtx 3090 got dropped down to 1000$(500$ if you dare try to get it on ebay)
You could get a pc with way better specs than this

Two years of software updates is way too low for such an investment, 4 years and they would have a deal with me

yalim, 07 Jul 2022I read and already wrote 60Hz results of all phones in my c... moreyou really dont know how LTPO panels work. They can go down from 120hz-1hz. For example when you dont interact to your smartphone, the refresh rate will go down to 1hz instead of 60hz. Though LTPO panels dont work well if the software doesnt know to handle it. And if you are wondering why phones that use a flagship chipset, its bcos every year flagship chipsets gets more power hungry than predecessors but has better perf/watt(i mean they increase their power by a small margin but squeezes more performance than their predecessors)

Removeable battery & SD card slot
Would be mass... moreExactly.
With the progress of technology, it means to manufacture phones are always getting better and better and cheaper and cheaper. So why is it that, we now pay A LOT more per phone, and the phones are far LESS capable.
2014 was the peak of the phone industry.
You had chipsets like the: Kirin 925, QSD 801, QSD 805, Exynos 5433. And phones had everything like: User Removable Battery, Headphone Jack, FM Radio, microSD slot, DualSIM, IrDa blaster, Notification LED, Extra Button (Shutter/Programmable), Physical keyboard.
Notable devices were:
Apple: iPhone 5s, iPhone 6, iPhone 6+,
Other: MS Lumia 930, Jolla Phone, BlackBerry Z30, Blackberry Priv, Panasonic Lumix CM1,
Android: Samsung Note 4-Exynos, Samsung S5-Active, Sony Z3 Compact, Sharp Aquos Crystal, Moto X Style, LG G2, HTC M8, OnePlus One, Oppo Find7, Huawei Mate 7 Ascend and Xiaomi Mi 4G.
Then 2015 happened, and it was mostly a bad year due to unoptimised software, and low-efficiency chipsets, some devices even lost features. But 2016 was a huge improvement, especially with the: IP67/68 waterproofing, Aluminium unibody designs, and new chipsets like the QSD 820, QSD 821, Exynos 8890, Kirin 955, Kirin 960. Things started progressing slower and getting worse from 2017-onwards, and here we are with the marketing being not very healthy.
I agree with your point about waterproof case. However, these are very rare and only come for a few/famous devices. Even then it is not a great solution. If you have a phone with a User Removable Battery, placing it into a waterproof-case, will give it IP67-like protection. It is still somewhat vulnerable. But the dealbreaker is that this case covers the whole phone, that means you get a "plastic window" for the display, and it feels bad for your fingers, and scratches easily.
