ASUS' Gaming Phone Looks AWESOME! - RoG Phone First Look

The video presents the ASUS ROG Phone as a high performance gaming device showcased at Computex 2018. The host highlights the phone’s top-tier specifications, including a Snapdragon 845, 8 GB of RAM, and up to 512 GB of storage, plus a dedicated vapor chamber cooling system to keep performance steady under load. He demonstrates the cooling accessory that clips to a secondary USB-C port, allowing landscape locking and convenient charging, and describes optional gaming-focused accessories such as a game controller piece and a dual-screen attachment that can display a mini-map on one screen while the main game runs on the other. The display is noted as AMOLED with a 90 Hz refresh rate and 1 ms response, offering smooth visuals, while the device also features capacitive triggers and a dedicated 3.5 mm jack. The host contrasts these features with competing gaming devices, noting loud dual stereo speakers and a substantial 4,000 mAh battery, and touches on software skin ZenUI. While he remains optimistic about a full review, he also points out that real camera performance and software impressions will require hands-on testing. The video closes with a brief sponsor segment for Corsair HS70 wireless headsets, reinforcing Computex coverage and inviting viewers to subscribe for more content.
