    The ROG's cooling fans are too heavy and for me it actually makes the game experience a bit unenjoyable. Just use a watercooling phone coolers like Nishen, they're completely quiet, much cooler, and much lighter.

    nice vid, unfortunately its hard for me to get the rog phone 7 here in the UK (been out of stock on the asus site for ages) and i don't want to get one from aliexpress as i've heard people had issues with those ones. touch response being really slow or mobo issues etc. so i've just pre-ordered an rog phone 8 although i wish it still had the dual front facing speakers and the subwoofer, though I think its time to replace my rog phone 3 otherwise i'd like to wait for the rog phone 9 instead. I agree with others, theres too many downgrades here.

    I bought the Asus ROG 6 because it did not have a notch, two forward-firing speakers, a headphone jack, and a huge battery. I like the toned-down look of the ROG 8, but the notch (and the reduced battery capacity) make it completely uninteresting for me.

    I feel like Asus needs to market the gaming phones as everyday driver phones also make them more everyday driver friendly like the S24+. Snap Draggon gen 3 chip, 24gigs of ram 1440p display, 165Watt charging, Samsung cameras, big battery, expandable storage and headphone jack located at top of phone. This would be a crazy good phone and I'd 100% buy it imo.

    No mention of the price? For the record, it is £1299 in the UK for the only model available, the 1TB/24GB model. That is a hefty price, especially as it may only receive 2-3 Android OS updates and the cameras are so-so. With the downgrades it also is less interesting. An easy pass.

    already got my ROG 8 pro Edition and its a "Beast" for having 24ram and 1TB storage. Best feature I'd say for long gaming, it cools faster that the ROG 7 Ultimate. Yes, kinda dismayed with removing the subwoofer in the cooler and no longer build front speakers. But if you have Cetra, that should be fine. (The punch whole sucks, but you can adjust the screen, from full screen to cropped. Overall, definitely a recommended gaming phone.

    I think Asus has completely missed the mark on this one, it's no longer a gaming smartphone, it's a standard, banal smartphone, and on top of that too expensive, with a mediocre camera system and only 2 years of Android update 🤦🏽‍♂️ $1100 for that is way too expensive and brings nothing more than an iPhone 15 Pro Max, OnePlus 12, Xiaomi 14 or future Galaxy S24 Ultra with an active cooling system attached to the back 🤷🏽‍♂️ I think Asus should have simply updated the design of the Zenphone 7 Pro, kept its 6000 mAh battery 🔋 or even increased to 6500 mAh,lower the price by $200, offer at least 3-4 years of Android update, but above all, kept its active cooling system. This smartphone is really not a good deal, and especially no more of a gaming smartphone especially against a $700-$800 Redmagic 9 Pro, it's clearly not a gaming smartphone.

    “Powerful performance” it has the exact same performance as other flagships. Only difference is that unlike other phones is its camera is trash.

I'll wait for the ROG phone 9 if they will go back to making legit gaming phones, if not I'd, probably stick to the redmagic series.

    As an iPhone user moving back to Android after years of Apple use, looking for a gaming daily driver, this is basically what I’m looking for (still on the fence with Red Magic too). Regardless of Red Magic or ROG, both are an upgrade in every aspect from my iPhone 13 Pro Max. It’s crazy though, how many people are bothered by the punch hole. Even the S24 Ultra has it too. I guess that’s the point though…. Asus is trying to make the ROG a flagship for more people. To do that, you have to have a decent front facing camera. You can’t have quality, and under-display at the same time. The tech doesn’t support that, yet. I get it for the “pure” gamers, though. My custom PC at home is over the top. The Red Magic 9 Pro fits that perfectly. No IP rating, a built in fan, RGB colors, uninterrupted screen, etc. It is purely a gaming phone. ROG 8 Pro = “Daily driver friendly” gamer phone Red Magic 9 Pro = Straight gamer phone I kept bouncing back and forth, but I think the ROG makes sense for me. More of a daily gamer, and I’m already paying for $1300-1500 iPhones anyways. So price isn’t an issue. I guess it’s a different view from someone coming back into this from Apple all these years.

    Too many downgrades on the gaming experience that this phone is not that worth buying.. I don't need wireless charging when playing. And I dont play games underwater. You get my point? And in exchange here's the list of the downgrades: 1) No more dual front speakers 2) Downgraded Thermal cooling from 4 physical buttons to only 2 buttons 3) No more Kunai gamepad compatibility (for those that do not know, this gamepad transforms your phone to a nintendo switch-esque form) which is favorable to people that needs physical buttons - I use this in codm (i got rog phone 6 btw) 4) Downgraded air triggers (no more ultrasonic meaning no more swipes, and making air triggers like 4 buttons as well - I have this option on my rog phone 6) 5) Smaller battery capacity I can say that the new ROG phone loses its gaming option diversity which I have experienced with my current gaming phone.. And tbh i am very satisfied with. So if you ask me if i will buy the new rog phone? Surely not. It feels a huge downgrade while paying a huge amount compared to what i have now.

    since the hot, slow and b.draining s22 i don't buying Exynos phones never ever again and so after using my s23 for nearly a year which looks very beat up now, i just bought the Asus Rog Phone 8 last week and i'm pretty happy with it. i absolutely don't game on any phone I've ever used. i just wanted a decent looking and fluid performing Snapdragon powered phone with rounded corners. the Rog 8 comes with a pretty nice package and a charger in the box. coming from more than 10 years of constantly buying and using Samsung phones and tablets it's just a little bit different using the Asus Ui. it's so much more fluent and better performing than any Samsung I've ever had in my hand's, it's so much better!! i'm very happy with the Rog 8 so far. i've paid 1090€ and i think it's relatively fair for the package you get. i'm buying Asus motherboards and graphic cards for many years and Asus always delivers at very high quality standards. if Asus would build a tablet i instantly would buy it. there are options outside the Samsung ecosystem and Exynos crippled devices and when you don't want to buy an Apple iPhone or support the CCP with buying an Xiaomi or Oppo, i think Asus i by far the best option for you.

    Asus really has cut not just the corners, but the entire middle in order to appeal to everyone. I definitely appreciate the IP68 rating and the matrix display on the back, but it is not worth so many downgrades. Most noticeably, the sustained thermal performance, you know, the one thing ROG phones were supposed to be amazing at. And I'm talking about just the phone itself, without the AeroActive Cooler 8, because it doesn't come in the box unless you buy the ultimate edition, not to mention the average person isn't going to be carrying it around everywhere with them, especially in their pockets. Last year the Xiaomi 13 Ultra actually had much better sustained thermal performance than the ROG phone 7 Ultimate, and that isn't even a gaming phone. Not to mention that already has IP68 dust and water resistance, fast wireless charging, amazing cameras and everything else a true flagship has. This year Xiaomi introduced many phones with vapour chambers twice or even quadruple the size, so Asus really needs to step up. All this wouldn't matter if the phone was actually reasonably-priced. But no, it costs far more than other flagships and offers less, while not even doing the main thing it is made to do properly. No.
