ROG UI won’t appeal to everyone

Smartphones do a lot more than just making calls. They have become the primary cameras we use and the primary screens we look at. We all spend multiple hours each day with our phones, but we don't do the same things. If you're on a budget, you might have to pick and choose features that you prioritise. Manufacturers realise this, and have come up with multiple different models that are very good for specific things. We have selfie smartphones, ones with big batteries, and ones with more style than substance. As for the gamers amongst us, we look for phones with the best possible processor in our budget.

SUPER COOL

Morgantyler360 . (Aug 11, 2018) on Gadgets 360 Recommends

The ROG phone would be awesome, I am a gamer just like all of you but the only problem i forsee with this phone is it being expensive upon release so most younger gamers like me would not be able to experience this phone.

Paperwight after 1 year

Koushik Paul (Dec 15, 2019) on Gadgets 360

Do justice to your hard earned money. ASUS products develop multiple problems immediately once out of warranty but ASUS doesn't ship spare parts, and neither batteries to India. So your purchase is, for all practical purposes, a paperweight after a year. Chinese looters fooling Indians, that is what this is.
