Some people don't realize this phone can also be used as a regular very powerful phone. Just because it's a "gaming phone" doesn't mean it can't serve other purposes.
@Walter Wanami I assume that you love mobile gaming since you're considering the ROG Phone 3. Note 20 is packed with features you will barely use as a gamer. The hype for Note20 will not last that long. When the S21 is out, that Note will be forgotten. Get the ROG Phone 3 and you will not regret that decision no matter how many iphones and galaxy phones come out in the future.
@Walter Wanami rog 3 has a display issue. Black crush on low brightness. I also considered note 20 ultra and rog phone 3 and went with note20 ultra. Display is king.
Many seems to be negatives on this phone. It's definitely not for everyone, not for me too but I'm glad this thing exist because else, all phone are nothing but same slab of similar spec sheets. More choice always better :D
@Walter Wanami it as a regular phone in 60/90Hz refresh rate you'll simply end up with a sot of around 7.00 Hrs. Even am with mixed gaming 1.5hrs, RUclips, Facebook and other activities ending around 6.00 hrs in 90 and 120hz display speed. And this one is blazing fast and you can throw anything on it. It will run smoothly. The multiple applications work nice though. Actually I was also planned For a samsung device but I feel I landed on the best gadget. The display is good, battery is beast. For a basic use this one is worth every penny. Go for it. Remember it is above 200grams in weight
@Walter Wanami apart from weight I didn't felt anything wrong. May be you feel a camera feel bit lacking side though you're using note 9. ROG 3 is a game centric by the way they placed a good camera but not up to the flagship level may be updations give a boost
@@stonefors3032 Yeah but do you have the cooler attached to the phone when your out and about ? i dont think so . It is a bit of a shame , companys are leaving the 3.5 mm headphone jack out just to save a buck , most people would happily pay an extra tenner to get a 3.5 mm head phone included .
Well since the phone is not water-resistant, why cut the headphonejack?!! 🤔🙁😐 I ordered the ROG 3. Just to find out the chiniese Tencent Games version is coming? The seller I got it from eBay asured me it is also build by Asus. Originally I wanted to get the ROG 2 because it still has the headphonejack. But I'm mainly buying it because of the awesone front facing stereo speakers. And the ROG 3's software detects bass and emphasises it. So I went for the 3.
hows the display compared to note 10 plus in terms of quality n contrast n vibrancy? i am not expecting it to be same but still... as i am tempted to buy this phone coz i am bored of my note 10 plus
Silver Acid it depends regarding the fit of it because the Aeroactive Cooler 3 has its own dimension that’s why I’m asking if it does fit or not, regarding the Twindock it has its own dimension also.
@@brian88pauL In that case you couldve just googled the size comparison between ROG 2 and 3... They're the exact same size phone so dimension wise it'll fit.
I was wondering how water resistant the phone is for normal use. Would the water go inside the vent and fry the phone? Can I use this phone in rain?.. Can it survive a dunk in water?
No no.... I don't intend on dunking my phone.... But then mistakes do happen and i am just a regular user who wants an exceptional screen and great battery life and i dont really care about the weight. But then I might have to use my phone in the rain or maybe the phone might slip from my hand or something. If its very vulnerable then it's not good. If it can survive a dunk or two then good. I think even the sim try doesn't have a rubber gasket which i feel is very bad. But then in the end we have to see real world tests.
@@swarooppoonater2488 well remember alot of these real rests are given the phone to do videos on and test and advertise for the company and not only Asus but most companies so be careful how much you trust people
I came to this after using xs max , oneplus 7 pro , Samsung s20 ultra exynos ... rog 3 is faster for sure better battery life more fun 🤩 Worst phone in this list is s20 ultra 😖
Personally I think gaming phones are quite useless, let me explain: Gaming phones are a niche in the smartphone industry and they provided very small performance boosts over normal flagship smartphones. Anyone who can afford to buy this phone is likely very serious about mobile gaming. However, anyone who's serious about mobile gaming likely knows that most of the pros (yes there are pro mobile gamers) normally use an iPad. An iPad provides you with better performance than any phone or android tablet, and they have much larger displays, which is an incredible advantage especially in games like Call Of Duty Mobile. OEMs should definitely consider switching from making gaming phones to making gaming tablets, which I'm sure will make a lot of hardcore mobile gamers very happy. I probably could have explained that better but I've never been really good at explaining things🤷🏽♂️
A pro mobile gamer can't carry an iPad in their pocket... Someone who buys a gaming phone expects to use not just the phone for gaming but for making calls/texts and taking decent photos. A gaming phone can do everything a normal flagship can do but better. Take the battery on this device for example, what other phone has it except for the ROG phone 2? The bottom line - a gaming phone isn't just a gaming phone, but an all of everything phone. I respect your opinion, but that's just it, it's just an opinion just like I have my own.
Get off the drugs man 🤣 Asus sold 10k units of the ROG 2 in 73 seconds during their first flash sell and had 2.5 million reservations... All in all, they sold millions of the ROG 1 and ROG 2. So, I expect them to sell millions once again of the ROG phone 3. You must be in IPhone user or some broke nobody to hate on something you can't ever get 😂😂😂
@@DharokerCodm - I don't hate it because I can't afford it. I hate it because it's a niche thing. I hate iPhones and I hate Galaxies too, so... I'm all Google, LG and Motorola.

Thanks for the video..
How are the haptics on it?
My sub box is filled with rog phone 3 videos.
Mine isn't.
Asus rog phone 2 's display looked grainy in low brightness in grey backgrounds. Does the rog phone 3 have the same issue?

@@loveiphones4550 so what? Better a forehead then a stupid notch
Same issue smh
Selfie performance is more in line with the competition from about 3 years ago
Still hate how people put "game phones" as genre. They're just over spec'd phones. Which is fine.
Looks interesting, also good performance
Oh no they took away my favorite feature, the headphone jack.
Still great, really really great, but that is an instant no buy for me.
You got the Headphone jack on the cooler.
It has a dongle in the box which can connect to any of the 2 usb ports and give you a headphone jack stop complaining about nothing!
It has 2 USB type c ports so you can still plug in headphones while charging
@@stonefors3032 Yeah but do you have the cooler attached to the phone when your out and about ? i dont think so .
It is a bit of a shame , companys are leaving the 3.5 mm headphone jack out just to save a buck , most people would happily pay an extra tenner to get a 3.5 mm head phone included .

No I won't.
Hi! I’m just wondering and also curious if the AEROACTIVE COOLER 3 FITS to ROG PHONE2???

Rog 3 vs Black Shark 3pro. #PhoneBattle would be a good video.
I'd say take it up a notch, ROG3 vs Black Shark 3S vs Red Magic 5S
I was wondering how water resistant the phone is for normal use. Would the water go inside the vent and fry the phone? Can I use this phone in rain?.. Can it survive a dunk in water?
I have used my rog 2 in rain and its ok I wouldn't dunk it as the vaper chamber means its easier for water to get inside.
Yes... That's what I used to think but then I saw rog 2 water test by gupta information systems and it survived a two minute dunk so now confused
