Fantastic performance coupled with worst after sales support. Cost of replacement motherboard is more than the selling price of entire phone. Asus does not offer any extended warranty or damage protection plan although they think themselves as premium brand. This phone has no IP protection in spite of its otherwise high specs. Any prolonged exposure to moisture damages the motherboard very easily, even without any direct splash - which reflects poorly on overall build quality. Back glass cracks easily proving it is not Corning Gorilla glass actually.

Nixoqu, 11 Feb 2025Is rog 5 still Worth it in 2025? I need y'alls opinions 🙏I bought this phone back in December 2021. After three years the motherboard is dead and sim port not working was the first complaint , after changing the sim port board the motherboard died. The CPU is too expensive. For that price you can simply buy other phone

Nixoqu, 11 Feb 2025Is rog 5 still Worth it in 2025? I need y'alls opinions 🙏Well, it's a good phone but please take a note about dead motherboard problem since I'm one of the victim (lucky the phone is still in warranty when it happened).
I only use x-mode when I got this phone the first time for testing purpose (using cooler too). After that I always use ultra durable mode and using cooler to keep the system temp around 36-38C when gaming but the motherboard still died lol.

Nixoqu, 11 Feb 2025Is rog 5 still Worth it in 2025? I need y'alls opinions 🙏Definitely worth! Battery duration is amazing, HyperCharge 65w 20V! And 144hz display with triple 8SD. Phone is pretty heavy and camera performance is meh. Butt i love this phone, never stuck, never.

Anonymous, 28 Apr 2024Can someone explain to me in detail.everyone writes comments like asus rog 2 is very powerful ... moreI've had both (and only these two), so I can tell you that yes, the ROG 5 is better, so is the sound depth (especially low like bass), but surprisingly the ROG 2 was louder with still some great sound.
When I showed off the ROG 2 speakers, it blew everyone away since it was way ahead of competition. ROG 5 was "just" great speakers.

Didn't use it for almost three years and the battery was on zero after the last time I use it was on 73%.And now doesn't go the fast charging option with a Xiaomi charger 67W.Someone knows what is wrong with it?Could the battery be the problem if I didn't use it for three years almost?

my sim card slot started to face issue reading my sim card shortly after a year. The service centre commented that it is likely caused by the motherboard; and I need to pay 80% of the phone price in order to replace the motherboard. I gave up and bought myself a new iphone instead.
