@Fearmylogic 5 месяцев назад

Can't wait to upgrade my phone. But I think I'll get the Red Magic 9 Pro instead. I think I'd rather have the extra 1,000Mah vs the extra RAM. Also, the flat back is more appealing to me, unless ASUS put in some SERIOUS camera tech in their phone, I just don't need or want some huge camera bump. Also, having the underscreen selfie camera, even if the quality suffers a little bit, is MUCH more appealing to me, vs having a hole punched out of the main display. Also, the extra 20w of charging really helps with the lack of wireless charging. I feel like this is more of a modest update from ASUS, at least when compared to the Red Magic 9. The extra RAM would be nice....if there was anything that would come close to using it. But by the time there are scenarios that would require someone to have more than 16 gigs, This phone will be a couple years old, and the ROG Phone 10/11/12 will be out. Worst of all, the ASUS ROG Phone 8 pro costs $1,200. When the Red Magic 9 Pro is only $800. I honestly do not see a $400 difference between the phones. When the Red Magic 9 was announced, I was drooling at the idea of what ASUS would do with their next ROG phone. Sadly, they have left me disappointed, Especially with the $400 premium. And I'm not an Asus hater. I run a lot of ASUS parts in my PC ( including a $1,000 motherboard ), and I bought my wife the newest ASUS Zenfone.

@TheMnsxd 5 месяцев назад

Agreed this model at least is just so overkill it shoots itself in the foot imo

@Adervish 5 месяцев назад

There is a switch emulator that consumes so much ram, depending on the games. Also, there is cassia in development [ it's basically just letting you emulate Windows games on your android], so it must be eat a lot of ram. But yeah, it's overkill for people who just want native android gaming or just fast android phone

17:34 Nice specs and all but this phone can heat up pretty fast. If you want to dock it or use it as emulation machine, the red magic with active cooling performs way better albeit with buggy software. Its awesome however as daily driver but they downgraded the battery from 6000mAh so its a minus. The ROG 7 ultimate edition with the open latch at the back is a better choice because the cooler can directly blow air into the vents for more efficient cooling. One more HUGE minus is the usbc port at the bottom of the phone is off center to force users to buy their expensive kunai controllers so people cannot use Gamesir or 3rd party controller. I wouldnt recommend this phone if you want to use it for gaming.

The phone looks beautifull, but what really grinds my gears is that the ASUS did not make it compatible with kunai gamepad... what a shame :(

Reasons why Redmagic 9 Pro is much better choice: - bigger battery - better cooling - full square screen experience without camera dot - no obnoxious camera bump - you can buy yourself Redmagic 9 pro AND steam deck OLED for the price of 1 ROG Phone 8 Pro Everything else except water resistance is a gimmick i personally rarely use. There is no value to this phone and everything they did falls into water for me mainly cause of the camera dot...WHY WOULD YOU NEED YOUR SCREEN TO BE SLICED DOWN JUST SO YOU CAN TAKE A SELFIE ON A GAMING PHONE IT MAKES NO SENSE

Ironically, Asus already had the perfect solution to the question of how to have a good selfie camera with minimal bezels and without a hole punch. Just make the main camera flip forward like on the Asus Zenfone 6.
