Asus ROG Phone 2 review: Get your game on

The second-gen gaming phone from Asus adds a proprietary port for accessories, along with heaps of power under the hood. Is it the best of its kind?

Asus ROG Phone 2 hands-on review: Ultimate Snapdragon 855 Plus gaming phone launches globally at IFA 2019

The revamped ROG Phone packs a Snapdragon 855 Plus CPU and up to 1TB storage. Could it be the best gaming phone ever made?

It won’t come cheap, though. At €899 for the standard configuration and €1,199 for the Ultimate Edition, the Asus ROG Phone 2 is a luxury that not everyone can afford. There are no UK price announcements yet, but they should be coming very soon because...

ASUS ROG Phone II Review – it’s a gamers wet dream!

Are you a gamer that has to have the best specs to aid your dominating skills? Are you a phone gamer

Insane specs and performance in general use and under load

No kick stand on AeroActive Cooler II

If your main focus is gaming and you can deal with the sheer size and weight of this phone, and have enough cash burning a hole in your pocket to get the top spec models, then we don’t think you’ll be disappointed with the ROG Phone II. As mentioned...
