Planning to buy the rog phone 2 strix edition

[klintnathansoco]

So I was planning to buy the rog phone 2 strix edition here in the Philippines but I have read so much issues about the rog phone 2 in general. May I please ask for your opinions if it's a good buy or will I just be wasting money for a faulty device?
Thanks ahead

But have you measured what is coming from your router to your phone 😂? That's my point, you have a big massive router taking in the data from outside, but your phone takes in a tiny 10, 15 mpbs. Simple physics - a large bucket of water, but you have a small tube to transfer the water to another bucket, the longer the delay you get the water from that bucket to another. That's is your lag. Because your lag is causing you not to receive all the things you need to render a screen, that's what makes it stuttering.

Do you get lag playing Candy Crush? If not getting the lag, then your phone is taking in too much data that it cannot handle. Therefore, that is why PC is always good for gaming.

So what you are saying here is get a pc and not get a phone. I mean what the heck dude, i never mentioned pc or race cars in my comments but you keep bragging about them. Whats up with you?

True about redmi but their budget phone are 10k rs which is super cheap. I mentioned cheap because they are budget phones your expectations are always low. Talking about oneplus, i still have oneplus 6 and trust me i have used the recording feature and pubg and the delay was nothing like rog 2. Rog delay while recording is on other level. Talking about ui i like rog ui as a gamer but freezing is the thing which troubles me and trust me i never had freezing issue in an old oneplus device such as oneplus 6

OnePlus touch latency is ultra meh

Their audio latency is big F (150 ms for 7pro / 80-90 ms for 8pro on OOS is a joke 😂)

Plus OOS is riddled with various issues to hell with their crap open beta/stable channels

They didn't even bother implementing a proper one handed mode or lockscreen blur art

Gcam development is meh as camera api restriction (you need fricking root for accessing wide angle lens and to add font too)

If you can afford the Samsung flagships good for you (70k+)

Redmi is again a Chinese meme with memeui

Another for benefit on Asus after coming out from Samsung myself is that ASUS provides the firmware for you to download and it allows you to go back to previous versions if you don't like. Unless you flash your firmware and root, there's no way of stopping the annoying bloatwares that comes preinstalled. So I think it's unfair really to compare phones because each one with have their own downs and ups or ups and downs. 😁

Ohk I see don't mind my above comment then lol 👀

Every OEM has issues no point ranting about someone

Well forums are meant to rant but still I guess you get the point

I get you, yesterday i was truly pissed and started making shitty comments but now i am chill and now i got the point that devs are working but still i have been asking for months now, and all i got from them is a reply that the recorder has a limitation which cannot be fixed so we have to live with that and the phone froze so i raged so hard i was about to break it if it didnt reboot.

Yep true
All phones have their ups and downs
