HUAWEI MatePad 12 X (2026) Review
ASUS’ gaming smartphone, the ROG Phone, is finally here in the Philippines. As you all know, it’s packed with features that are not normally found in most flagship smartphones, but what we want to know is how well it performs. While we wait for our full review, let’s check out the benchmark scores.
• AnTuTu – 298,128
• 3DMark – 4,748 (SSE – OpenGL ES 3.1), 3,696 (SEE – Vulkan)
• PCMark – 9,015 (Work 2.0)

• AndroBench – 707.49 MB/s (Read), 204.01 MB/s (Write)
The ASUS ROG Phone got really high scores from the listed benchmark applications. But how does it compare to other popular flagship smartphones that we reviewed? Check out the table below:

The ROG Phone got a significantly higher score in AnTuTu, reaching almost 300K, then followed by the Mate 20 Pro, the Poco F1, and the Note9. It’s also the highest in 3DMark SSE OpenGL ES 3.1 and PC Mark Work 2.0.
Now let’s take a look at its gaming performance (with the AeroActive Cooler attached) with the help of the Gamebench app:

| PUBG Mobile | 40 | 40.6 C |

Looking at the numbers, the ROG Phone can dish out high frame rates while keeping the internal temperature at comfortable levels. We’ll further test its capabilities in our full review so watch out for that.
