I am impressed that they could fit in two USB ports and a headphone port and still have space for 5500mah battery and three cameras
and ip68
And wireless charger
And a secondary display
That’s why the bullshit other brands told us about headphone jack and micro sd is stupid af
Proof it can be done, other companies just making excuses not to
Asus really became the Lg of phones. I hope they never stop innovating honestly
@@helix9268that’s not what he said. It is the equivalent of LG but in the phone world. Innovative and fast rising.
@@helix9268 I don't think he/she means gaming.. more like thinking outside of the box/quirky/new features. Honestly, one LG phone I would have loved to try would be the Wyng. Seriously seems more useful than a foldable for me.
@@helix9268dude you miss the whole point... 😂
Except they didnt innovate anything in this literation: regressed back to hole punch camera, no more dual front firing speakers making some of their old (and very expensive) accesories unusable, smaller battery, all while costing more than a 15 Pro Max. It might seems attractive in the US where people doesnt know any better than iphone or samsung, but elsewhere (especially Asia), this is a hard pass in a world where the Redmagic 9 Pro exists. The whole point of a gaming phone is having an aesthetic that stands out, if you want a normie phone, you buy an iphone or samsung, not asus.
I sure hope they don't end up like the LG phones
It's refreshing to see a brand challenge the norm by including features that others have phased out than just following trends.
the price is horsecrap, no one serious would buy this its even more expensive than last years rog phone 7 and has a lot of downgrade compare to it
@@KamiKazeD agreed , owning this phone benefits no one , it wont perform any better than the latest samsung , yet its camera is terrible , ugly camera bump ,and its design is still cringe like a boy racer adding tribal decal stickers to his hatchback car
@@girlsdrinkfeck headphone jack is enough for me
@@fruitpunk only if the DAC is good
Asus going Sony way hahahaha
Absolutely love that back LED display! I think it can be super useful!
Like you can check on your tomogachi
Explain how it can be useful, give me an example..
@@NoMoreLies365 Notifications that you don't have to turn on the phone for... Use your head.
@dxcSOUL like what, for example?
We don't need these types of Phones to be perfect in every category, we just want companies to keep producing such innovative different products.

Bro ur almost at 15k and no camera?
This phone isn't innovative.
Only use camera in mode pro with raw or DNG , it is fantastic, my ROG phone 6 in Dng mode is better that iphone, because i control all with lighroom,and it is fantastic.
24 Gb ram, 1 TB storage in phone is crazy. Those specs would be great even for a laptop and to have this powerhouse of a hardware in our hand is completely insane!
Fr it’s mad
That is crazy. My gaming laptop has worse RAM, worse storage, and worse battery life. Needless to say I’m a bit jealous, this is impressive!
@@Mr_Mimestamp Intel
That spec also costs more than some recent gaming laptops with OLED and the new Core 7 chip! $1500, who in their right mind will pay that for the top-end model!!!
Meanwhile apple only gives 8gb ram and 256gb storage on a whole ass laptop
To really appeal to the masses, ASUS should also ramp up the update policy for like 4 years of major updates at least. Not only for the ROG Phones, but also for the Zenfone series. For that price, most consumers are likely to keep that for 4-6 years before they planned on replacing it with a new one.
That's right and if they improve their cameras a bit more then definitely it will be a good package overall! 🔥
What the waste ROG 8 pro only gets 2 years of Android update haha deng
You’re right, cuz their phones are super durable. Friend of mind just celebrating his 100 years anniversary with his ROG phone 1 and it has been rock solid since day one
😐@@patrickshao2740
I'm happy to see there are companies out here willing to try different looks and designs with the hardware. I'm kind of old now, but I miss having an interesting looking phone or unique looking phone in a group of ppl.
That dot matrix thing is way better than the Nothing Phone Glyph. Not really gimmicky at all in my opinion. Because you don't even know it's there when it's off. Very impressed.
True.. nothing phone is just 🤮
True but the cost difference between the two is huuuuuge man.
Honestly to this point, I thought nothing was up to something, but seeing this phone's back display and its functionality, that glyph looks hella useless and gimmicky. Straight up killed their whole vibe honestly, this is way better..🤣
@@SinghSamaThe screen isn't the reason for it's cost difference, the specs are.
@@sudeeptoshoron4755 Sure but the subtle back screen is also a premium speciality feature of course, it's not present in the regular ROG Phone 8, only this Pro version comes with it.
Personally the screen on the back is more then a gimmick it’s actually really useful but also really unique. And the way it blends in so seamlessly is crazy
I'm struggling to figure out the usefulness tho, but it looks really nice tho😊
More useful than Nothing's glyph interface
@@2COLD118For business people who have their phone laying on their desk all the time, essentially what people use always on display for but prob more efficient on battery considering its a smaller mini led display and shows on back instead of front
@@menace2society00That's what u think, but that's not how it works, an always-on-display on an OLED screen is more efficient, it only has to light up the areas that are displaying ur time and notifications while the rest of the screen stays off, it also doesn't have to refresh as much as it can drop down to 1hz
But still more useful than a Nothing phone 1 tho..
I love that they are keeping the headphone jack. Hopefully this phone performs really well and maybe other manufacturers start bringing it back.
They won’t bring it back
@@FlopFan69 we can dream 😭
They probably keep it because it's necessary for gaming. The delay in wireless headphones could give you a disadvantage in some games, so other manufacturers aren't really going to care about that.
They won't, stop fooling yourself
@@numberMX the thing is, its not just their gaming phone.. ASUS Zenfone that not gaming phone also have headphone jack.. so your analysis is incorrect.
drone shot intro go CRAZY!!!!!
8:10 The ROG phones and Zenfones are developed by 2 separate teams, and they're most likely not sharing camera tech whether it's due to internal competition (like their sales numbers get reviewed by upper management) or they simply have beef with each other, thus the difference in camera performance. All of the above is based on my work experience in another Taiwanese company similar to Asus.
probably thats the reason they will ditch the zenfone lineup as the rog phones sell more
you are absolutely correct, this is just how taiwanese companies work... Even for ASUS they have different department for Laptops and PC hardware (motherboard, GPU). Oh boy they have entirely different chain of command and even have standalone marketing budget and etc. Same applies to other taiwanese company such as gigabyte etc
@@HectorOvalle18 yep clearly the ROG phone team is favored more by the higher ups for a few years now, easy to tell by the amount of ROG phones launched and the more significant marketing done for the ROG phones.
@@JohnDiew oh man I love it when cross-department projects stagnate because they're disputing over whose budget to use 😂
@@HectorOvalle18Do we have any stats for that? ROG phones are cool but I’d be surprised if they sell more than Zenfones given they are way more expensive and catered to a more specific audience.
My main issue with ASUS is their updates track record. They take longer than almost any other OEM to release the upgrade to the next Android version and they drop support after 2 years.
Yeah, I usually try to keep my phones for about 3 years and their 2 year software support is the biggest issue with their devices. Upping it to 4 years would literally make the Zenfones the best androids IMO.
And they do not support bootloader unlocking anymore. They claim "it's in development" but it's been nearly a year now.
@@crashniels As a Zenfone 9 owner having bootloader unlock on release, then pulling it, made them go on my shitlist, along with Lenovo. Always a first time, always a last time too. Next phone is just going to be a Google device.
@@hmartinlb yea pixel devices are good for this kind of stuff. I went with the Fairphone 5 for the extra repairability. There is also Shift but they are still with the snapdragon 845. OnePlus allows unlocking but not relocking (with avb) which sucks.
Always a problem with these iPhone competitors. Can't one of them meet the bare minimum?
Love this! Thanks for sharing 🙏🏾
Great Video yes definitely it meet all the criteria to gi for mainstram phone . Excellent design.
I used to be soooo excited about phones on the regular and the upgrades and new features every year. It's been YEARS since a phone has made me excited by being different and i gotta say, this one makes me pretty excited
Why ? Compared to the latest samsung, it has only a ridiculously overkill RAM amount and a gimmick display on the back, paired with a mediocre camera for a flagship price. Other than that, same gaming features as previous years' phones. What do you mean by different ?
@@igortusca637 Dual front facing speakers, two charging ports and a headphone jack for starters. While the display on the back may be gimmicky, it's better than taking away more features year after year.. like the notification LED, which served a somewhat similar purpose as the back display does
@@BlindEastwoodRog has this features from years
@@igortusca637 You are ignoring the 2 shoulderbuttons which are not only great for games but taking pictures too.
9:04 I can't believe there's no motion blur. But the IP68 rating and the matrix screen on the back really sealed the deal for me.
Motion blur in video is usually related to the shutter speed of the video. Higher shutter speed = no motion blur, lower shutter speed = more motion blur. There is a drawback of higher shutter speed is that the time between each frame information is a lot more so you kind of get a janky motion but if you increase the frame rate problem solved. Higher shutter speed requires a lot of light, so I honestly expect motion blur in low light.
Why is the most important thing about a PHONE is the camera?
Because it’s used alot and majority of the ppl who have phones use their phones as a camera and don’t own another camera
Attention to detail. Love the Scrabble ROG background 2:37
That back pixel display is SO SICK, hope it stays
I can’t ever get enough of your videos. Incredible work. I regret not ever getting a photo with you when I had the chance 🤦🏽♂️
Amazing lighting!!!
“Anime Vision” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I like the minimalist design a bit more, since it's less tacky, but I think they should have kept the hole-less screen as well as the bigger battery
Fr 6,000 battery :(
My ROG2 died so I may have been in the market for another, if I could scrounge up the cash. The hideous camera jutting 3,000 miles out the back and the disgusting camera hole in the front are far more egregious than any "gamer" shape I have ever seen, and I fail to understand how a "normie" could think this looks sleeker or more appealing in general... Maybe I'll look into the 7 instead
@@jacobblanton5179you should look into the 7, that camera is an entire contient
@@jacobblanton5179definitely going to pick up the 7 now that it will be on sale.
If they have optimized the efficiency for dailying, honestly it doesn't make a difference what size the battery is. It's pretty evident from the iphones, specially iphone 15 plus.
6:05 nice
🤣🤣
I like the new more elegant look. The previous ones were a bit too“loud” for my taste. Same as with most of those Gaming Laptops compared to the Razer Laptops.
It’s just good to see devices expressing a fun spirit emerging, cannot wait for the onslaught of Ai driven hardware with lots of cool features both hardware and software!
Cinematography on point 🙌
What a gaming phone really needs is a screen with more rectangular corners similar to the s23 ultra, those corners noticeably make the screen seem bigger that it is when playing games and makes if feel like there is more space on screen for your fingers.
The RedMagic series have and makes use of it
It sounds bigger but it makes it less comfortable
redmagic
What? If anything they need to be rounder because it would make them feel more comfortable while holding them horizontally. Did you even ever use them before?😅
At least they managed to even out the bezels. For whatever reason the Zenfone series still has that chin and the left-aligned selfie camera. The phone’s already thick, not sure many people would complain about an extra fraction of a millimeter to bend the display like iPhones and the base Galaxy S series.
The intro is spectacular as always❤
Damn that looks slick! I have Rog 6D ult and I'm using it all the time for literally everything. The design of Rog 6 is really gamer like but I still like it. The design of Rog 8 looks really cool and toned down perfectly for me.
Asus is carrying the banner that OnePlus was famous for. Just wish these were more widely available. Definitely keeping an eye out for Zenfone 11.
pretty sure zenphone 11 won't be made. I could be wrong though
They made a statement saying they would keep the zenfone line going
No zenfone 11 but zenfone 11 ultra. It looks promising than zenfone 10 😊
I think they're going to continue the Zenfone line. But the Zenfone 11 probably won't be as compact as the 10.
PC/Console fandoms: "actually, smartphones are generally CRINGE becase NO/BAD GAMES they shouldn't invented 🤓" Also pc/console fanboys: "Fruit Ninja? PVZ? Jetpack Joyride? Subway Surfer? Vector? COD mobile? ML? Wild Rift? Shadow Fight? The Outcasts? Cut the Rope? Nah, they're same BS 🤡" WTF! These good mobile games didn't get the attention it deserves, and then those fanboys (specially Sony and its ponies) almost made smartphones extinct to the point YOU LITERALLY CAN'T PLAY MINECRAFT CROSSPLAY
I like the idea of the back lights being used for notifications so i can keep my display out of view and turned over
Good complete review brother 👍
Thank you vry mch enjoyed this video..👌👌
I'm impressed by how different every ROG phone version looks 👏 Nowadays where phone manufacturer got lazy and always has the same design every year, design update like this is a huge plus for me 👍
100 percent dude
1-3 looked almost exactly the same.
whats wrong with having the same design? performance on hardware and software should be your concern.
@@A-Karim2003yeah dont know whats wrong with people, they would probably complain if companies change design too much
@@A-Karim2003 it's boring
5:51 It's called that because it's styled "AniMe". As in, "animation" and "me" for the personalization of the back of your phone.
Love that Mac picture on the background, he was the goodest of boys, we all miss him 😢
cheeky little plug for the Tesla auction previously owned by MKBHD at 2:50 :D nicely done!
I had the same wireless charger alignment issue with my Zenfone 10 when I first got it but it was fixed by an update. Now it charges properly in both ways.
“Previous gaming phones were just so gamery” - MKBHD
Excited to see Asus giving us options outside Samsung. Really close to getting a Zen Phone to step down from the bigger size of most phones.
Thank you so much for reviewing the rog phone, I was wondering if I should get this phone or not. You are one of the best viewers on the whole web😊
1:28 MrWhosetheboss was that you??😳😳
Yeah lol
The ROG Phone 8 looks great! I can't wait to see your review of the Oppo Find X7 Ultra since the Find X6 Pro was already so good.
This seems like a great change actually. I love the slimmer design and the less gimmicky feeling of the whole thing. I would think of buying this for sure.
I have to say: the split of Matte and glossy finish line reminds me of Marques Daily Driver front design. @MKBHD
The diagonal strip is somewhat similar to the new Zephyrus g line gaming laptops. I love it 😍
My only issue with the rog phone is how fragile it is. Literally dropped mine once with it's case on and the back side completely cracked
and i wouldnt expect it to be easy to repair or cheap
that happened to me with my rog phone 3. I dropped it and cracked the front. visited several shops and initially they all said they'd fix a broken screen but the moment they find out it's an asus they're like oh, should've gotten a samsung or iphone since those have way more parts around.
Quote jerry rig everything "glass is glass and glass breaks "
@@KyrosX27 That's a shitty shop imo, yeah of course a more popular phone has a lot more parts floating around but there are plenty of reasons to decide on something else, like a headphone jack or what sold me on the previous rog phones was notchless screen with awesome front facing speakers, so it's pretty rude if they actually said that.
The intro instrumentals 💥💥💥. Ellis, did you do that?
Umm. That opening beat. Was. INCREDIBLE. I can't even pay attention to the rest of the video. I could hear the juiciness of the bass even on my piece of junk phone! Chef's kiss!
Mrwhosetheboss in mkbhd notification 🔥1:33
I have the ROG 7 Ultimate and I'm kinda disappointed that they've downgraded the speakers. The 7 was the only Android phone I've had whose speakers rival or beat the iPhone Pro series.
How is ur connectivity? Most reviewers complain their connection of ROG 7 is very slow compared to Iphone 15
Yes indeed it's a downgrade from previous phone in a lot of aspects.
So the 7 is better than the 7 Ultimate?
@@Trancer006they are exactly the same. Just make sure you purchase the 16 gb model.
@@koronelove7125 Connectivity is pretty average tbh. It has all the cellular bands, but people sometimes complain about my call quality. Data is fairly fast, but if the network signal gets spotty, it just gives up the ghost completely.
I love that back screen! More phone needs to pull this off, the way how it’s not even noticeable is awesome! Esp for notifications! I want that on iPhone, or Apple should put that feature on their MagSafe cases.
Sick intro 🔥🔥🔥
Great Review . So many types of smartphones on the market now. One of your awards for phones of 2023 never allocated a category to the Best /Easiest repairable phone. I wonder if you would be introducing that in 2024 or if Zac (JRE) or Mr Who's the boss would do a video on this.
the vibes and lighting in this video are immaculate
The vibes...
The only reason why I want to get this over S24 Ultra are air triggers. Do you think they are worth it for aiming in first person shooters (emulators)?
Hi Marques... love your videos, can you do a review on the new redmagic 9, and a comparison between the new Rog and Redmagic
My ASUS Rog Phone 6 Pro was one of the best phones I have ever used since it came out, I recently moved to a Z Fold 5 but honestly the ROG was amazing, great display the 165hz was so crisp, huge battery would last me a good day+ without needing to recharge, the biggest part that was lacking was the Camera but overall I loved it. This new ROG 8 has my interest but the Fold is just the better phone for me in end of the day because of.the productivity use cases
Don't forget the speakers. Rog phones comes with the best speakers in a phone. They can produce real bass
Better you can go one plus open
Give me your used phone
8:51 My name is Marques yo
I see your 10 book in the back…cool seeing it after the studio gift video.
MKBHD's voice is like ASMR for me, and I occasionally drift off to sleep while listening to his videos.
I noticed that it shares its design language with the new ROG Zephyrus laptops, which is interesting to see! I like this less... gaudy design both on this phone and the laptops, so that's a plus for me. But for mobile gaming I'll stick to a console still, especially at that price 😅
Got a steamdeck and suddenly I don't need to have gaming capabilities on my phone
All the RGB in the universe will never be more gaudy than having an entire city block jutting out of what would otherwise be a slick device where the camera would have been
Keep up the good work! Your videos are a real treat for all fans of your work.
4:00 Pleease do a review on that Oppo, I really want to see how it compares against the best phones available in the US
Hey Marques! I might have a good idea for a video. I don't know if it's a thing or if it's a topic worth making a video about. But I'm a bit of a tech geek, I love having the new tech that comes out into the world. But regarding phones that I actually often change (I'm currently going from a z fold 4 to a pixel 8 pro), and when you change brands, what about the charger? Does the phone's battery get damaged by using chargers from other manufacturers? Eg. a samsung charger for a google pixel 8. Can it be done, or does it damage it? Should you always buy original chargers or what should you look for? Thought it was a cool topic! Good day!
This is the aesthetic I'm looking for when I think about gaming. Elegant, but if u look closely, it feels thought for gaming. I hope that also pc components company will adopt this way of envisioning gaming.
I’m so glad that they are still making these phones even tho I’m not interested in buying one I think it’s nice to see a niche product like this
Less niche now that they took half the features away to make it look like an iPhone.
intro bass goes hard
2:23 bro is flexing that 911
I love the display on the back. Very cool. Not keen on the price though. I love someone is pushing the boundaries with a cell phone but $1500 is too much...$1000 is a tough sell.
Even 1k is too much, you can buy a crappy ass 8th hand car with that Or something more useful
It's good that ASUS is making the ROG phone appeal to a wider audience, while maintaining the powerful performance of a gaming centric device. Let's see how well it'll sell with this approach. 👏
Don't think they should give up on their gaming identity thou
Yeap
@@garylai1083they didnt, who else has 24 gb of PHYSICAL RAM, ram plus doesnt count
@@MasterMCGS gaming identity = RAM 🤣
@@MasterMCGSthe fact that iphones and samsung donnt need 24 RAM to run games this phone is shit
What IEMs have you been testing Marq? Would be cool if you reviewed them!
They're slowly improving and making it more closer to a proper flagship phone. But if they can match their camera with the Zenfone, then the price is justifiable. Maybe its a couple of years away from peaking. But its just not quite there yet. But its definitely two steps forward and half step back
How is it "improving" if they are slowly getting rid of the only reasons to buy the phone. they got rid of any attempt at cooling - especially when a vast majority of rog 5, 6 and 7 phones died within 2 years because of overheating because they are slowly getting rid of their built in cooling architecture. they got rid of bezels which help with long gaming sessions - now resting thumbs on the edge leads to accidental inputs. they got rid of the led indicator that lets you see which app you have a notification from from a distance because of customizable colors. at this point why buy a rog instead of any other phone? what do they do differently? headphone jack -> sony ; dual usb ports-> use a dock ; high specs -> literally any other competitor because at least they have better customer support than asus. what a disappointment.
@@PorungaSan they're making it more like a normal phone and just because a gaming phone is a gaming phone, it doesn't mean you have to treat it like a console and play games on it all the time. I had an old rog phone and it works just fine. Play a game 3 hours a day max and then just don't use it for games and 3 years later, it still works fine
@@mohammedfaiisal that's my point. My ROG2 still works great. But every new model is getting worse and worse because they are removing actually useful features and making it more generic where other manufacturers are clearly much better at that stuff.
The design is really nice and sleek and they managed to strike a really nice balance between a gaming and a conventional look! Looks like a really great phone for your mobile gamers but the price is a bit too high imo. If they can somehow reduce the price in the future, it might just be your to go phones for gamers
Well, if you're patient you can always wait a year and get this one for half price when they announce the 9.
Damn, the backgroud was pretty comfortable and clean in that video. Congratz
The outro song blood on your hands made me nostalgic.... I suppose it was the intro song for a Samsung galaxy note or some other rog phone few years back...
from what i see the overall take is like 50/50. I get it that their goal this time is to reach more potential consumer because really the "mobile gaming" audience is still considered niche in a way. rog phone 8 tries to take the middle point between fancy-and-cool-looking-albeit-niche and the casual classy subtle aestethic of a phone as a daily drive device. Personally, i like the casual design changes, it definitely meet their goal to make it easier to approach. And likely be easier to see custom casings for it as i do like personalized stuff, which is a problem with precious entries. But on the other hand, its unfortunate they gotta sacrifice some the main selling point of "why people buy rog phones" to begin with, their uniqueness. How many modern phone have front facing speakers now? all i see is Lenovo legion, Asus rog phones, and sony, only 3 (razerphone is outdated) and Asus is the last active player. and trust me, when you taste front facing speakers, you can never go back to side-facing ones. new camera module is great but i personally not picky about picture post-process quality. The punchhole is a dissapointment. i'd rather have a few mm of bezels to fill in good speaker and camera just like.... idk.... all previous rog phone??? and having a full unobstructed screen. this punchhole trend on phone is really stupid since its debut imo. The water resist is nice feature to have but imma be honest, who would bring or use their phone to water hazard situation?? like sea, pool, or rains? or some wet accident at home? if i know im going to such situation i wont bring or use my phone, or keep it at a safe place so even if accidents happens, it doesnt matter. 20 years of using phones, i have never let it touch water other than wet cloth to clean it. Im neutral on battery changes as 5500mah \is still conderably high knowing others still goes with 4000-5000mah. and firmware and software programming can also make difference in efficiency if asus really did that. im a long time user of rogphone2 since release till now and still going strong with 0 repairs/problems. for me this is a mixed bags. i was waiting to change my phone for yet another rog, but i guess 8 isnt it. For the next rog iterations, i really hope they have this casual design, but returns all the unique feature like speaker, full onobstructed screen, and who knows maybe more than 6000 battery like redmagic did. or until another company made that exact thing.
❤ your content.
you just gotta love for how well Marques explains all these new details, another great vid man thaaanks
The "focus" joke came so unexpected and was really decent, it got me
That's a brilliant back display. If you can use Tasker with it, that will be awesome. Wonderful innovation overall from Asus, one of the only companies that actually does some innovative stuff.😅
2:54 - sneaky :D
Wow! That intro! 👌🏻
Appreciate the flex that you have Wemby in your fantasy team!
RedMagic got down the under display front camera feature pretty good, wish this had no hole punch as well.
Even though the front camera is mediocre on the RedMagic 9 Pro, seeing that camera bulge on the back of this phone makes me glad I got the RedMagic...
Asus never fails to do waaaaaay to much in their phones.
Pin this comment and heart
*too
I have had nothing but problems with Asus. Crappy Build Quality and Crappy Parts. Just lowest crap used, and on paper monster specs.
I disagree, my Asus zenbook flip 15 OLED is absolutely great
Most likes I've ever had
The intro music is dope
Sometimes I'm not even interested in the tech. But Marques makes such great videos, I just gotta watch 😅
Sweet potato soup

That’s offensive to aliens
Context??
haha good one
Personally software support is the most important part of phones nowadays. This monster could easily be used for 5+ years, but as far as I know it only gets 2 years of major updates and 4 of security (not states how frequent).
can we just appreciate how cool the intro is
Man, LG phones were so amazing with military grade protection which nobody puts in nowadays in a regular phone. I am still finding the replacement for my LG G8x.
It's expensive but looks extremely well built. If the camera hardware/software was only as capable as the rest of the device, it would be a homerun for sure.
Their phones are sturdy ngl
yeah the only downside of a gaming phone is their camera,but gamers don't touch grass so don't worry
Just wondering if we'll get to a point whereby phones get so fast that every time a phone gets released , it's the same chip but new features are used to draw people's attention since they cannot get any faster or they at a point whereby even after 4 years you wouldn't even notice that the chip is old.😅
In my incredibly uneducated opinion, I feel like we're very very close to the Silicon Singularity.
@@MrEnKayeI agree. I think chip speed is there already. It’s the refresh of the displays that gives it the icing on the cake.
apple already does this
Nah, once we start hitting satellite capable phones, we’ll need all the performance and battery efficiency we can get. Phones like the Pixel with Tensor will be far behind if they don’t catch up.
more than likely itll be more like 'and you connect it to this and itll be your pc' but actually work better
okay this is will be my next upgrade now
The countdown for a picture showing up on the back is so useful
To be honest i am not a big mobile gamer but this Asus ROG phone might make me want to become one. I really dig the overall design of the phone and those specs scream beats mode. I might either get this or the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra.
Personally i think it is best to wait for the S24 Ultra. Its pretty much the same specs, but very likely with a better Camera.
