This pricey gaming phone still has a headphone jack and arrives in the US this January.
“Yo dawg, I heard you like games, so I put games on the back of your phone so you can game in between games.” Asus , probably. No, really. Asus ' new Android smartphone—the ROG Phone 9 Pro—has 648 mini LEDs on the back of the device that can light up to different patterns, or you can use them to play arcade-“inspired” games that may sound familiar: Brick Smasher, Snake Venture, Aero Invaders, Speedy Runners.
Asus claims the CPU is 45 percent faster than the ROG Phone 8, with a 40 percent faster GPU too. There are improvements to the phone's natural cooling capabilities, like the inclusion of a 57 percent larger graphite sheet, which produces lower temperatures by dissipating heat. Asus claims the most demanding mobile games, like Genshin Impact or Zenless Zone Zero, should consistently hit 60 frames per second for smoother gameplay, even more so if you pair it with the cooler attachment.
