Description & Specs
The Asus ROG Phone is unmistakably a gamer device. A full metal body with a glass back is accented throughout with aggressive-looking streaks and lines. Two speakers on the front deliver stereo sound. An octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 clocked at 2.96 GHz ticks inside, a generous 8 GB of RAM chip takes care of multitasking, and you’ve got a choice between 128 GB and 512 GB of storage. There’s a dual camera module on the back — a 12 MP main camera and an 8 MP secondary camera with a 120-degree wide-angle lens. On the front, there’s an 8 MP snapper. All of this is kept on by a rather generous 4,000 mAh battery.The display is an 18:9 AMOLED panel with the super-impressive refresh rate of 90 Hz.
