Before you think of upgrading to Rog5

[Danishblunt]

Honestly there are so many weird topics here surrounding the Rog5 being superior and people acting like it's some next evolution.
Guys let me clear some things up for you:
The screen is the same.
the speaker are basicially the same,.
the batterilife is worse on the Rog5 due to higher TDP from the SoC.
The LED on the back, while on paper nice, is something you won't even look at.
No storage upgrade, still capped at 512GB.
Phone will throttle if used over time without aero cooler.
Camera the same.
Audio quality hasn't been improved noticably at all on headphones, for some reason people first now got the memo that the Rog Phones in general have a high quality built in dac.

Overall if you already have a Rog3, there is literally no compelling reason for you to purchase the Rog5, if you have an older Rog phone 1 then you can easily consider it, but upgrading from Rog3 is just silly, even Rog2 I'd still call it a stretch to call it an "upgrade". So please don't be swayed by random reviewers acting like it's some next evolutionary thing.

I think the only reason they still haven't released rog 3 beta is becoz they are going to release new software features of rog 5 in rog 3 and they didn't wanted to spoil those new features before rog 5 release that is why our beta is still not released

Just an assumption , can be wrong 😬

Yes that's possible,only the software things though the additional air triggers options/features in rog 5 is probably hardware based

It is possible that me get more motion gestures as they are mostly gyroscope based and rog 3 have very good gyro💁

Let's see if they add it then I kind of doubt it as it seems like an hardware feature

Performance wise it WILL be better,along with the improvements
But yes,for people who own a rog 3,there is no reason to upgrade yet

I just hope at this point if they could calibrate the display to eliminate the black crush with Android 11, that will be the biggest change for me. I'm just hopeful though seems like an arduous task.

Correct me if I'm wrong, I think the panel that's used in ROG 3 is not built by samsung which is why they were unable to solve the black crush issue completely. That's why they switched to a better standard display made by samsung to solve that issue.
