Asus has announced its second-generation gaming phone, the ROG Phone 2, and based on its specs it looks like a monster of a smartphone.
Firstly, the Asus ROG Phone 2 is the first handset to officially feature the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 Plus. This new processor runs at the same 2.96GHz speed as its predecessor and it also features the same Adreno 640 GPU as its predecessor, but the clock speed on the on-board graphics has been increased by 15% from 585MHz to 675MHz.
The Asus ROG phone 2 features a new and larger 6.59-inch screen with a display resolution of 2,340 x 1,080 pixels and the added ability to render 10-bit HDR color. The new display helps fill out some of the older phone’s thick bezels and gives it a slightly taller 19:9 aspect ratio, but the handset’s overall dimensions have increased slightly to 170.99 x 77.6 x 9.48mm—as opposed to the 158.8 x 76.2 x 8.3mm Asus ROG Phone. Instead of being limited to a 90Hz refresh rate, the new AMOLED screen hits 120Hz, which puts it on par with the Razer Phone 2.
