ASUS ROG Phone 8 Pro review: most powerful smartphone

The ASUS ROG 8 Pro, with its revamped cameras and design, definitely gains an edge and can be considered by even non-gamer customers if performance is a priority. However, at its core, it is still a gaming device, and best suited for hardcore gamers. Its AirTriggers and external accessories truly make the whole gaming experience worthwhile, perhaps next to none. Its cameras are decent at best and could use improvements in terms of detailing and native editing options.
