#asus rog phone 8 pro review

In this review, we examine the successor to last year’s best gaming phone, the Asus ROG Phone 8 Pro -- a gaming-centric marvel that bridges the gap between raw gaming power and everyday usability. Design and Construction Starting off with design, the Asus ROG Phone 8 Pro only comes in Phantom Black, and this is definitely the most noticeable change with this year's top-of-the line ROG Phone. Gone are the copper highlights or blue accents, and if there was anything from ASUS’ own ecosystem this phone would aesthetically pair up nicely with, it would have to be those gorgeous new 2024 ROG Zephyrus G14 and G16 laptops, obviously in their black colorways. Going back to the ROG Phone 8 Pro, for buttons and ports, it still features left and right air triggers on the right side, with the volume rocker and power button present here as well. And the ROG 8 Pro is noticeably slimmer than last year’s ROG Phone 7 Ultimate. For display protection we get a layer of Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2, which is rated for drops of up to 6.5 feet.  For auditory performance, the Asus ROG Phone 8 Pro features dual stereo speakers. For in-display biometrics, the ROG Phone 8 Pro features one of the optical variety and it’s very accurate from the get go.
