The ASUS ROG Phone 8 Pro series is here, and it's a big, bold, super-fast Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 flagship phone for 2024. While I haven't spent much time giving you a full review of this device, I can say how impressed I am with the ROG Phone 8 so far. These are my first hands-on impressions ahead of the full Android Authority review coming soon. To begin with, ASUS has made some aesthetic changes that make it a more stylish client than its previous generations. The ROG Phone 8 and 8 Pro have the same footprint with USB-C ports for the cooling module that comes in the box with the 24GB RAM/1TB Pro storage version for a limited time with the 16GB/512GB Pro model. , or otherwise sold separately (pricing TBC).
This application Fax Lists is important to keep the phone cool if you play games for a long time. You can actually charge using both of those USB-C ports, too. The ROG Phone 8 and 8 Pro don't look like phones designed specifically for mobile gaming. They remind me a bit of the Sony Xperia line, which I think is a positive, although some people may find a more gamer-oriented aesthetic to stand out from the crowd, as we saw with the ROG Phone 7 and earlier . generations Elsewhere, there's a headphone port for wired audio, and for the first time on a ROG Phone, there's an IP68 Rating. In a neat touch, the initial setup includes an interactive game that teaches you how to use some of the hardware's features, such as air feedback triggers and gyro controls.
I thought it was fun for about a minute and I begged to skip this section and install the device. Fortunately, you can skip it, but it will be a fun enough game for people who are used to the controls. ASUS ROG Phone 8 LED is back Robert Triggs/Authority Android One of the newest features is also called AniMe (not anime!). It's an LED strip on the back of the phone that, along with the software, lights up when you receive a notification, has animations when music is playing, and other pretty aesthetic tweaks. Like the ROG Vision window that this feature replaces, you can customize it using the Armory Crate software. It's definitely attractive from the start, but it's kind of weird if you want to personalize your phone and add some gamer flair.
