I have the reg magic 6 pro and while I like the 165hz refresh rate, the colors aren't that great and it IS dim. Forget about using this thing outside in the sun. If you're in the US though, be careful as the phone is missing bands for 5g here. Also if you're on Verizon, you're not going to receive text messages. These are the reasons I'm trying to return the phone right now.

Still really ticked off about how bad the software support on the Red Magic 3 was with a total of like 4 updates ever coming to the phone, on top of the fact that it came out in May, I picked it up in June, and they had an upgraded model launched in October which gave me that OG 3DS purchase levels of remorse. They even removed features I liked, such as the vibration feedback when touching the triggers, instead of giving you the option. It also ran some games really poorly for no explainable reason. But I stand by the fact that the Red Magic 3 with a single one of it's controllers attached to the left-hand side was one of the best gaming experiences I have ever had. Buttons and an analog stick where I needed them, precision touchscreen where I needed that, and good Gyro controls for extra everything else.

A gaming phone with no built in gaming controller is rather baffling. Doesn't the Xperia Play have a cult following? Furthermore seeing the increasing popularity of handheld PCs and mobile Linux distros making progress makes me wonder if any of those companies will be ballsy enough to combine both. Probably pretty slim chance an x86 phone will happen, but if it did then it would be able to play loads of Steam games on the go.

There's a statistic of 2.2 billion mobile gamers worldwide floating around www.wepc.com/statistics/mobile-gaming/ so even if a tiny fraction of those are interested in high-end performance on a phone, it would make for a worthwhile market. In many regions, phones are the primary if not the ONLY computing device people own/use daily. And if the majority of your local social network is gaming on mobile, you might choose to stick to mobile gaming even if you can afford an average laptop to play similarly demanding games. These products are also testbeds for the future of more affordable game-oriented mobile devices. Besides, people are shelling out equal amounts of money for a flagship galaxy or iPhone and all they do is social media, photos, and maps on it.

No mention of "Desktop Mode" seems like an oversight to me. That's where the performance of these devices could be really advantageous. I've been stuck with using an Android TV Box (quad A53 cores, 4GB) as my "PC" for several months (Old PC died) on Android 9. Android 11's desktop mode deserves mentionfrom what I've seen, multiple windows means these kinds of devices should have the performance and capability (paired with Gerforce Now) to the sole computer for students or others in a small living space (I'm in a bedsit so the space/energy saving has been awesome).

The big benefit of the ultimate would be the half a TB of storage.

It was not at all apparent whether or not I'd be able to use any of them with my current phone provider here in vancouver (rogers), or competitor providers ... only for one of them did i even find a list of supported phones, which of course was just bigger name common phones. And although it may have been as easy as slapping in a SIM, I wasn't going to risk the purchase without knowing.

@@eric-. 1. It's not about the amount of storage, it's about the storage being removable and not dependent on the phone working properly to be able to access. 2. SD cards are plenty fast for storing your photos, videos, music, etc on. Most android phones haven't let you move apps to SD cards for years unless you format the SD card as an extension to the internal memory. 3. 4K phones are common, there are phones that can record 8K video now, and games are hitting multi-GB sizes frequently, some have broken the 10GB barrier, 128GB is not going to be a lot soon.

Now I have a Galaxy S20+ with 128 GB of internal storage and a SD card slot that I will never use. After over a year of usage I have 70 GB of free storage. The same thing is with a headphone jack. When I bought a pair of wireless Sony WH1000MX3 I never plugged a headphone wire into my phone even though my previous phone still had one. Maybe if you use your phone for gaming that will be an issue due to input lag, but for normal everyday use it's really not a problem for 99% of people.

OK, so it seems they are comparing the ROG phone 5 Pro/Ultimate model specifically here. You can get the regular model under 900€ which is much lower from 1395€ shown in the video and only thing you are really missing is back triggers which weren't that great to begin with, small back display and lack of the cooler which you can buy as accessory later on if you want it or get the more traditional game controller Kunai 3. For me at least, it's also a phone, meaning it's in my pocket, so I don't necessarily want holes with moving parts inside them when I carry it, gathering dust and pocket sand. On Nintendo Switch it makes sense because it's larger so you carry it in bag instead.
