ASUS ROG’s latest gaming flagship mobile device has finally shown its face in Malaysia just now. Please welcome the ROG Phone 7.
Before we go through the top-of-the-line spec sheet, let’s look at the things ASUS has done better in this iteration of the ROG device. For starters, the internal GameCool 7 thermal system is the best to date with different methods tackling different gaming sessions such as Boron Nitride (BN) thermal compound on one side of the CPU for short bursts, big vapor chambers, and graphite sheet handling mid-length sessions, and lastly, the AeroActive Cooler 7 add-on for extensive gaming marathons that can improve the temperature of up to 20% reduction.
The gaming experience is further enhanced by the twin front-facing 12x16mm speakers are now stronger with 50% more effective volume while the sub-woofer located in the AeroActive Cooler 7 provides 77% more bass for all the action-heavy titles or music-focused rhythm games. The 3.5mm headphone jack supports Dirac Virtuo for Headphones for spatial sounds.
The iconic game enhancements that give u the advantage of “legal cheating” X Sense highlights certain visual cues for easier attention catching while the X Capture automatically snaps the “Play of the Game” for you. The renowned AirTrigger saves you the hassle of getting a physical controller if your game doesn’t require microsecond-sensitive inputs.
