    I agree with your take on the removal of the 3.5. It does grind my gears, though. As all of my older headphones (mostly in-ears - which I keep in my bags for when something happens and I can't use my normal ones) are 3.5 I'd need to either buy myself at least one dongle (or a few to keep with the in-ears, which is more in line with why I have them there in the first place) to carry around. I'd probably be less butt-hurt if all phone manufacturers who removed their 3.5 added a second USB-C with pass-through charging. Hell, I'd rather give up a few cameras than the 3.5. ;)

    I believe that ROG Phone 3 is one of the few phones out there that has a headphone jack when the active cooler is on. Seems like improvements in most areas have been done. I'm almost fully satisfied with my current ROG Phone 2, with that said I'm looking forward to a great release from ASUS in 2021 since I will be upgrading to their latest creation, and hopefully they will be able to improve further on their great design!
    I'm not a gamer, even though I occasionally play a game or two, but I mainly use the phone and it's whole awesomeness to do productive work, and the speakers, microphones, screen and battery life, just makes it a joy to use! Keep up the great work and improve the ROG Phone lineup even more, especially for 2021 when I'm upgrading 🤪

    • @michelvanbriemen3459
      @michelvanbriemen3459 4 года назад +1

      For me the bigger issue with Bluetooth is the latency.
      I can see, hear and feel (through input) the very best 58-60ms delay that aptX can do, and if you have Bluetooth headphones/earbuds that only have SBC on Android that delay can be as much as 250ms.
      For an "epic gaming" phone to make that compromise is an appalling joke imo. At least it has aptX-LL (Low Latency) which can reduce latency to 20ms.
      I reckon it's gonna stay this way too, unless someone finds a way to improve the Bluetooth decoders dramatically or 60Ghz wireless Hi-Fi audio becomes a thing. Apparently you can transmit a 1080p@60hz video signal latency-free on that frequency, such is the bandwidth.

    All this makes me glad I didn't waste the money on the Rog 3. It's a great phone I'm sure, but not much of a difference between my Rog 2 ultimate. This phone was the more rare, and expensive option of 1TB storage. I'm not even close to using a quarter of this phone's capability. But I've owned it since Dec, and it's been awesome. Truly a beast in gaming. Where other players are lagging out on mobile games, you will be dominating. My wife has a Samsung and this thing blows it away. There's so many features in the rog 2&3's that it will take some time for you to find. Social media tries to give these phones low marks as actual mobile phones, but I've never ran into a problem. The camera naturally takes "colder" photos, but you can set the exposure level manually and forget it. The call quality is great. At&t tries to claim that it's not compatible with their 4 & 5G networks, but I've not only been on them, but I even travel, and use a Euro sim. It takes a little shuffling, but this phone seems to be natural for Orange, P+, and all major foreign carriers. The whole Volte thing is overrated. It doesn't exist outside of the US In a useful capacity anyway. One feature that might be on the new ones is the audio wizard. This is an amazing app if you love music, and or have Bluetooth sound devices. And I haven't figured it out yet, or why but the equalizer will sync its sound settings through my vehicle receiver, turning a dull stereo into a vibrant one, even with sub-par speakers. It also enhances the sound of head phones. And you guessed it, has a 3.5 jack. I'm a big fan of the native apps, as they aren't collecting your data unless you give that permission. Asus even offers a firmware key to remove Google entirely if you dare, or reinstall it if you make a mistake, making a pure, independent mobile experience possible. Although there's a alot involved and you will soon regret it if you don't know what you're doing. When connected to any pc or laptop, this phone's file storage acts just like a auxiliary SSD. Moving files are seamless. The only problem I encountered with data interface, is it's Bluetooth version will not connect to some older networks.
    My few disappointments are that the company's claims for a "big battery" still only power this machine for a day tops based on average use. But I understand it comes with a price in performance. Pair these phones with any 10+ MaH battery pack, and you're golden. There's not much more you need from these, although MSI has not entered the field yet. Competition drives development. The second thing is a lack of protective cases. These phones are expensive and it will hurt your soul if you damage it. Other than that, they are worth the investment, even if you're just looking for a great phone that will work well into the future.

      Removable batteries were only convenient if you had multiple fully charged spares ready to go, which was not the case for most people. Wireless charging is far bigger deal breaker than that - I've had three different models of smartphone get their charging ports burned out for different reasons over the last 10 years, and wireless charging is the only reason I could keep using two of them until my next upgrade cycle; the third had a removable battery, which was far more of a hassle in that situation than the wireless charging would have been. I'll grant you the other two though.

    I just got this phone with the Kai bundle today. Fired up Genshin Impact for the first time. So far I am satisfied, although the speakers I am a little disappointed with, the bass response is indeed very good, but everything else sounds hollow almost, like overly crisp, that's just with music specifically so far, games sound amazing. My ZTE Axon 7 I think were the best when it came to dual front facing speakers. Genshin Impact runs like a charm, the phone does get a bit toasty, hitting a peak of 47°C. You will want to buy a case for it, they provide a case however it's...well it's there, I'm using it temporarily. The "Active Cooler" is hard to tell if it's actually doing anything, I tested it once and it appears to help a degree or 2, but nothing noteworthy. The Kai bundle that came with it is pretty friggin cool, the software is fairly smooth and simple, takes a second to setup keymapping the way you want it, I set it up for Genshin Impact but you can set different keymaps for different profiles(games). So far besides the speakers which are ok, I've just heard better, I am satisfied. It does have a strange thing at lower the brightness and higher the refresh rate creating harsh graining effects, really pronounced with Night Light mode on, not a huge deal, doesn't show that much, I'm willing to overlook it.

      @@maxinac I mean, most people get enough hours of sleep to be able to charge their phones overnight without having to worry about it taking 30 minutes more. I do understand bringing a battery pack/cables when having really long days (travelling etc). Your phone should be able to last a full normal day anyway. If not, I would seriously consider buying a new one (mobile, portability and all that). - I can also understand being overly attached to a thick case (which I guess is impressively thick to not allow wireless to work).
      Wired charging or wireless is just a choice we make as consumers. If a brand takes away the ability to charge through wireless/wires, the phone loses a feature that could appeal to some consumers. My experience with wireless has been really good so far and I believe it will be the way to go in the future, it'll just take a couple of years for the market to catch up and the consumers to embrace wireless charging (I have friends who own new iPhones and didn't know wireless charging even existed until they came over to my place. They ended up buying a couple of charging mats for their place because of convenience, especially when you share a home with people who own a different wired device than yours, android/iPhone).
