Asus ROG Phone 9

76% ROG Phone 9 Review – Gaming powerhouse that’s built to game, made to conquer
Source: Hitech Century EN→zh-CN
The ROG Phone 9 is a thoroughbred gaming phone that hosts a flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, a gorgeous AMOLED display and enough RAM and storage, even in its base configuration to tackle any Android game currently in the market. It also has a wealth of innovative game-centric features like a second USB-C port, shoulder-mounted Aero Active triggers and the Armoury Crate app though it does have its quibbles, none of which are game related. The phone unfortunately doesn’t have the longest OS and security update policy in the market nor does it have the best cameras. While it is an adequate general purpose flagship phone, it truly shines as a gaming phone.

If you love mobile gaming, the ASUS ROG Phone 9 is for you, hands down. This is an incredible piece of hardware—one optimized specifically for gaming in a way no other flagship phone is.

t's undeniable that Asus packed in impressive hardware to help refine the ROG Phone 9. The smartphone features ample processing power and a stellar battery to service on-the-go gaming. Unfortunately, I think in doing so, the ROG Phone 9 doesn't do much to stand out as a smartphone. Across all of its phone properties, Asus plays it pretty safe. As a mobile gaming smartphone, the ROG Phone 9 will serve you well. If you're grinding through Genshin Impact or want to play some games via the cloud, you'll likely enjoy the user experience.

ROG Phone 9 Review – Ultimate Performance Without the Ultimate Price
Source: Pokde EN→zh-CN
To me, the ROG Phone 9 blurs the line of being a gaming phone and a standard flagship smartphone. It’s a great device for sure and given its price of RM3,999, you’re getting a 2025 flagship-caliber smartphone. You can take good photos with this, so you don’t have to feel like you’re making a huge compromise by going for a gaming phone but if camera is the focal point of your smartphone purchase decision, you might be better off with a standard flagship as those can give better colors and details. None however can match the battery life that this one offers.

Asus ROG Phone 9: This gaming powerhouse isn’t available in Canada
Source: The Shortcut EN→zh-CN
The ROG Phone 9 has been incredibly fun to use and play games with. It’s been fun bumping all the specs to their max and playing Wild Rift without the device getting warm. There were a lot of AI features, but most were game-related, and I didn’t use them for the game I was playing. The handset doesn’t take the best pictures, but if you’re not someone who takes a lot of shots, you probably won’t mind, especially if you’re a geek who just wants to play. The ROG Phone 9 is a solid phone, and I’m happy I got the chance to play around with the handset.

My only wish is that the quality of its gaming performance was maintained across the board. If you're interested in the ROG Phone 9 for its gaming capabilities exclusively, I'd almost be more compelled to suggest an ROG Ally or a Steam Deck instead.

90% Asus ROG Phone 9/9 Pro review
Source: GSM Arena EN→zh-CN
If you want nothing short of the best mobile gaming experience, we believe that the ROG Phone line is still the way to go. The ROG Phone 9 family has the most in-depth and comprehensive set of gaming features on top of excellent and, in many ways, specifically crafted hardware. The ROG Phone 9 generation is all about refinement. Last year, the family saw a major redesign, and now Asus is ironing out any issues and grievances users might have had. The latest and greatest Snapdragon chipset is sort of a given, but we still have to admire how well the ROG Phone 9 handles cooling on the beastly chipset and how efficient it is. The boost in the display refresh rate is also appreciated.

Asus ROG Phone 9 hands-on: the first gaming phone with Snapdragon Elite 8
Source: The Strait Times EN→zh-CN
The ROG Phone 9 shows how much Asus has refined its smartphone nine times over. Gamers will also dig the dual USB-C ports, 3.5mm headphone jack, and dot-matrix LED on the back that can display information like the time and battery life. It’s shaping up to be similar to the Asus ROG Phone 8 Pro we tested at CES almost a year ago, leaving room for the Asus ROG Phone 9 Pro (which we haven’t seen yet) to go above and beyond if it’s announced simultaneously. The Shortcut is aiming to review every smartphone with the Snapdragon 8 Elite as they launch, especially those phones that come to the US. With the Asus launch event coming in hot on November 19, it may be the first with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite to launch in North America. Stay tuned for more news in the coming days.
