Looks like the Rog series is about to die

[Danishblunt]

Sony is holding a gaming-related Xperia launch event on September 12Considering ASUS probably won't be able to step up their game drasticly this could kill of the ROG lineup for good. Sony knows their playerbase best and have created legendary phones such as the xperia play.
Guess this contender is going to be the final nail in the coffin as ASUS struggles to keep up with nubia in the asian market and now will lose its global buyers to sony.

nah the only people who need luck are the Rog5 / Rog6 buyers. RM7 is well known for being buggy in any way that is related to non gaming such as normal use, but its a performance beast meanwhile the Rog 5 / 5S / 6 are just plain unreliable trash. Power IC blowing up, countless bugs, can't do anything with it, not even streaming is possible with the trash cooler.

So its even worst, it doesn't make sense, and if you are so anti-asus just let go ?

Are you ok? Asus is even more buggy.
Good thing that the userbase is clueless otherwise asus would be in trouble.
The amount of people bringing up antutu as ultimate proof for anything while ignoring game performance and 3dmark stresstests is showcasing the hard copium people have inhaled to cope with the garbage they have purchased while "true gamers" have long since returned the turd of a phone as it cant even do basics.

Who needs 3.5 headphones jack? That was exactly 6 years ago I used a 3.5 jack, now it's Bluetooth Generation Z🤪🤪🤪

For me it was 3.5mm or bust. I liked the sony xperia 1 iv which indeed has a better feature set (asus, WHY no expandable storage, it would have been perfect for me), but there are reports of them being RMA'd a lot, mainly due to overheating. And red magic didn't seem to be available at the time when I needed a new phone.
I'm a bit of a normie when it comes to (mobile) gaming, I basically just wanted a flagship with the 3.5, as it does still come in handy to me, even though I do use BT a lot.

I heard about the overheating issues as well. They are caused by recording video, since sony has by far the best and most demanding processing, recording a video is as demanding as playing a game on the phone. However much like apple did on their phone, sony has tweaked the phone quite a lot to prevent it from overheating and it seems to have worked just fine. People have recorded long sessions as proof that the heating issue has been fixed.
Meanwhile asus still cant fix the basic bugs reported here and decided to nerf performance again as i predicted they would do.

I mean, if you see the RM7 is buggy why talking about it, there are other better brands out there if that is the case.
