I have brought device August 12 ,2020 through flipkart first sale at 6auhust. I was very happy until i open netflix ,it has vert bad black crush issue even at full brightness ,in 50pecent brightness colour washed out heavy black crush issue is this hardware or software issue??anyway im just gonna refund ....but i asked some of YouTubers they have none issue ,but for fellow customers only have this😓. I decided to live with this but some of units have no issue why i wanna live with this issue for years so i try to get refund and but 12gb varient.
In YouTube crush issue is little low when compared to netflix and amazon prime ,rather than that this dev is beast 😍

Listen if you want to just do gaming on the best performance out there,buy this phone or wait for the next one in a couple of months which will be fresh out the oven

Even if it has the black crush problem,it doesn't make any popular game unplayable,only when watching something dark

Also no phone is safe from black crush at the moment,but again this phone should be bought ONLY for hardcore gaming or content creation and data hoarders

I was wondering if rog 4 gonna have the same problem like rog 3 or worse.

I think about buying xiaomi mi 10T Pro 5g. Because it use Ips lcd screen . 8gb ram. 144hz and 5k battery.

A horrible choice for gaming,legit the Rog 3 has everything better than that phone except maybe the screen resolution,and even if the Rog 4 has a black crush problem,it won't be an issue if you are a gamer
If you think that a gaming phone is suitable for Netflix or video consumption you are greatly mistaken
If you want to watch movies on a phone get a note 20 or S21 ultra smh
And yes all of the accessories work flawlessly but for the cooler it's not that big of a deal since it will cool down the phone for 2 to maybe 4 degrees

Sry but this doesn't make sense calling, multimedia stuff (display, speakers) are the basic stuff in a smartphone whether it be a gaming phone or everyday flagship
Objectively speaking samsung does have a better calibration but the Rog 3 still remains an excellent multimedia device

The speakers are the best in the market currently, MultiMedia is also best enjoyed on the 160hz refresh rate
But I'm talking about the guys that complain about black crush or something like "1080p for a flagship phone!",and yes if you watch movies on this phone it will look vibrant and colourful but still people complain
So I'm directing my comment to them
