Simply put, the ASUS ROG Phone 3 is what a gaming phone should be, from its aggressive (but not overly done) design language and class-leading performance, to the multitude of settings and tweaks at your disposable. An ecosystem of clever add-ons (like th...
Unreal speeds, Highly colour accurate and smooth 144Hz display, Great gaming features, Best-in-class battery life, Stereo speakers are amazing,
Quite heavy, Cameras are average, Iffy fingerprint scanner, Design would appeal to a niche audience, Competitors for Asus ROG Phone 3, Asus ROG Phone 3, vs, OnePlus 8 Pro, Asus ROG Phone 3, vs, Black Shark 3, ShareTweetShare
So where do we stand on the ROG Phone 3? There is no device like it so there is really no comparing it with the competition. The market for gaming smartphones is still a tad niche and there are only a few phones that cater to that need. That being said, m...
Outstanding all-round performance, Lots of storage and RAM for its price points, Loud, spatial audio, Useful proprietary accessories available — docks, fan, dual screen case,
Display issues with contrast (black crush), Bad minimum brightness, No water resistance, GSM only (no Verizon)

Silky 144Hz display, Rich, boomy audio thanks to dual speakers, Big battery for marathon play sessions, Enviable gaming performance, especially with active cooling attachment, Clean, pleasant software (once you switch off the ROG theme)
Big, heavy, and slippery, Display grain and shadow crushing at low brightness levels, No water resistance, Middling camera for the price, No wireless charging

Sometimes inconsistent battery life, Can get quite hot, No wireless charging, No IP rating
The Asus ROG Phone once again proves it's the king of gaming phones with untouched performance and the widest array of experience-enhancing accessories around. That said, for such a premium price, gaming really has to be the main thing you do with your ph...

Consistent overall performance across all use cases, Outstanding spatial performance, Great timbre and envelope performances, Good tonal balance for background
Distortion becomes audible when recording in loud environments, Poor SNR performance due to the loudness of the background
Not only does the Asus ROG Phone 3 surpass its predecessor — sometimes by far — in almost every category and rank second-to-best overall, it also shares first place for recording, thanks to a consistent overall performance across all use cases, and outsta...
