The older ESS DACs in the LG phones do well on some specific test signals (1 kHz sine waves), but that's not what most people are listening to.
Well if the 6 is as bad as the 5 then not worth 100 dollars,terrible battery life and speakers don't get loud,5 is just a terrible phone
Wait, wait wait!
2GB RAM and a tiny, tiny 2nd display on the back are worth extra 300 euros??!
What the eff are you snorting Asus??!

Been daily driving the ROG Phone 2 for 3 years now and I love it very much

As long as the tiny 2inch screen on the back can't be use for taking pictures with the main camera..the phone is useless... I will choose nubia considering the price tag...
Do people really play that much on their phones? I mean why not
just get a steam deck that's much cheaper, has joysticks out of the box, more powerful, and play any pc game?
The fact that it costs more than $999 and no Tencent edition to reduce the price to like $700 means that I have to lean more to Poco X4 GT. Now that I thought about it, I have to prioritize my budget on a gaming PC in Q4 2022 so I guess I'll replace my RoG 2 for the Poco X4 GT. I hate it when higher tech = bigger price.
It's tempting if it has good telco support, though only 512 GB is a bit tight. I'm really wanting stereo speakers, headphone jack, 1+ TB storage, 8+ GB RAM, and good telco support. This Asus has all the right network bands to potentially work.
I have a Sony Xperia 1 III now and it's like an abandoned prototype. Too many features aren't fully working and it's barely maintained.
I'm waiting for Zenfone 9
Incredible phone. I am thinking of buying it. Well done Asus. Yes it is not as cheap as some POCO or a Black Shark game phone but this is a far better product with tons of accesories. People crying for software support are iPhone users that actually don't need a device like this

You really have to be out of touch from reality to be asking for price as low as F4 GT just because the software support is not as long as what you would expect. This is a gaming phone and people buy it for gaming and not to get long software support. There is Samsung A53 for software if you want long support
If only Asus phones are reliable enough plus proper software support. bad experience with ROG2 and Zen8.

And the device has top of the line hardware to support the longer software support.
If they cant do that, then they should drop their price considerably to Poco F4 GT levels.

This phone is worth every penny

Seen this during the iPhone 6s to 7 transition. IP6s owners be like: No headphone jack? No thanks! Bet their phones now don't have headphone jack anymore.
Still no telephoto? No thanks. I still have my rog 2 which basically has the same setup only slower lol. Thank god I went for s22 ultra, everything I needed in a phone with extras and much better support
