Verdict
Asus ROG Phone 5 is a hard-core gaming phone that provides you with the later hardware in the market. You get a big screen with support for 144Hz refresh rate for smoother gaming experience. Corning Gorilla Glass Victus gives the screen added protection and running Android 11 makes it ideal. The cameras are decent but the long battery backup along with 65W charging is a sweet deal for this price. However, the storage is not expandable, the design looks boring now and wireless charging was expected at this price.
