Check out the newest 5 mobile phones that are tailored for your gaming needs!
Gaming is a serious business, and smartphone manufacturers know this. That’s why they have produced the 5 most ridiculously over-speced phones you can find. Competition has its perks, as it seems. Without further ado, take a look at the five latest and most powerful gaming smartphones:
1. Asus ROG Phone 5
The most famous gaming smartphone comes from Asus in normal, Pro, and Ultimate variants. All three versions have the same specs, apart from the available memory with the Pro and Ultimate exclusively packed with 16GB RAM/ 512GB storage, and 18GB RAM/ 512GB storage respectively.
The ROG series has always been one of the preferred phones for gamers due to its 144Hz/1 ms screen with its 300Hz sampling rate, providing the smoothest gameplay in combination with the massively appreciated AirTrigger 5 game controls. The phone comes with features specifically developed for gamers, such as: Game Genie (in-game) interface, side-mounted ports, Aura RGB colors, improved connectivity, and gaming themes. Accessories are also plentiful, with the most notable being the clip-on cooler that can reduce the phone’s temperature by up to 15°C while adding two more control buttons. Definitely, a choice you wouldn’t regret.
