MY GOD THE EXPERIENCE IS SMOOTH!!!!

While i do game at home on my PC with a 144hz monitor i was somewhat sceptical of how well a hz difference in the mobile market would make. General use in ANY basic app menu is INSANE which is rather funny to me because about 10ish years ago that was the biggest selling point of any new andriod or iphone on the market and now the solution is just a higher refreash rate.

So the games that I've played on this phone so far are just 3. Pubg Mobile ( just to test performance ), Dokkan battle GBL and Legends. Now since this is a Dokkan battle forum I'll start with that. The game unfortunately is locked at 60fps and cant go higher. I've tried every method i can figure out with this phone so far and it appears its a hard lock. Now normally i would attribute this to the animations and how they run but if that were the case the game would have a different FPS at x1 vs x3 and thats not the case which means that this game can be unlocked in the future.

DB Legends. Now this game on the other hand is different from Dokkan battle as it supports higher refreash rates and this is when my mind was blown with the smoothness of the phone overall. Now when considering that we have 240hz displays on the market for comp monitors and the fact that i a 144hz panel at home I was think that if a game did support it that it would still be worse then my monitor for my gaming setup but it almost feels kinda better and its weird. First of all this game DOES have a different feel with higher FPS and it makes a huge difference and one thing i think is it might be OP for PVP. I've noticed that when my chance to dodge was up that my reaction time was faster just based on the fact the animation looked more crisp and caught my attention better then my LG G6. Now this may not have been due to just the difference in FPS but also the overall screen quality because man is screen nice.

As for everything else? The camera i havent tested right now because I couldnt care less about it.

The GOOD:

The Speakers are hands down the best speakers I've heard on a phone, the Air triggers make pubg mobile and other shooters a cake walk, the battery life is still insane while gaming ( as long as your screen brightness isnt maxed ) and still has a headphone jack.

The BAD:

The weight of the phone is rather high but this could just be due to me not getting use to it, the phone is rather large so one hand use unless your a monster sized person is near impossible, the asus UI for the phone is meh at best, accessories like phone cases are limited to 1 at the moment and not all games support the higher FPS.

Going to use phone for the next week and then I will probably add to this topic but if anyone has questions about the phone ask.
