The first-generation ROG Phone launched nearly a year ago, defining what a gaming phone should look and feel like while packing internals to match. Well, many competitors have since emerged, including the Black Shark and the Nubia Red Magic, so Asus has once again taken on the task of providing mobile gamers with the best of gaming features. So, the company has launched its second generation gaming smartphone – ROG Phone 2 in India at the launch event in New Delhi.
ROG Phone 2 comes with Snapdragon 855 Plus, is ridiculously powerful
The Asus ROG Phone 2 is a massive upgrade over its predecessor. It now features a flagship processor that has been overclocked to offer more raw power to gamers, a first-of-its-kind display experience, flagship cameras and a massive battery. Here's everything you need to know about the ROG Phone 2:
Asus has designed the ROG Phone 2 to give you an optimal and comfortable feeling in the hand, especially when playing, says the Taiwanese giant. It still features the same glass and metal construction as its predecessor, with sharp elements (and shimmering line that only elevates the look further), an air vent on the side and RGB-illuminated ROG logo in the middle.
The screen is now taller to offer you more real estate, so your thumbs don't collide while playing. If you are not familiar with the specifications, this may come as a surprise to many of you. ROG Phone 2 is the world's first smartphone with a "120Hz AMOLED display" panel with a response rate of 1ms. And yes, the Razer Phone may be the first to introduce the higher 120Hz refresh rate on a phone, but it was a 120Hz LCD panel, not an AMOLED one.
