Performance
This is one of the fastest phones, offering smooth responsiveness and functioning immediately without any noticeable delay. This device’s 165Hz display, along with 720Hz touch-sampling, brings touch latency to 23 ms. It is backed by the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 under the hood, which gives the device buttery smooth scrolling and animation even with crazy multitasking thanks to a tonne of RAM.
The Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 is comparatively more powerful and power-efficient on Geekbench compared to the last generation. On top of that, Asus optimised the device to eliminate heat to obtain the best performance but also sustain performance for an extended period.
Additionally, it has a larger vapour chamber, larger graphite sheets, and BN thermal compound than the Gamecool 6.
Feature
What makes this device a unique phone is its features, like ultrasonic air triggers. It now has a new addition button that allows you to shoot temporarily with lifting action using the gyroscope sensor. Also, the new bypass charging means it takes part directly from the charger and other amazing customisations.
Display
It has the best display ever put on a gaming phone, and it’s from Samsung, which you can feel with the refresh rate and the brightness quality. I can’t say that the display is something that is considered flagship-grade.
Camera
The cameras on the device are just acceptable, but for the value it has, the cameras should be better than this, having a 50MP Sony IMX766 Primitive, a 13MP ultra-wide angle lens, and a Macro Triple camera. Sometimes, under good lighting conditions, it is fine; sometimes it is not well exposed. Moreover, it is not very consistent with exposure or contrast.
Experience
Haptics appear to have some significant changes from the previous generation, as well as an under-display fingerprint reader. It is a great high-end performance niche smartphone if the cons don’t matter to you. The best specs you can get on a smartphone out there. Asus promises two major Android updates and two years of security patches.
