Finally a video about the normal Rog 8 and not the pro! Thanks for the video

[@stevelowe1216]

Yay...std phone

[@shiyaera]

woww great review! Thanks for this!!

[@solo451]

Good gameplay video for the genshin. Most of review only show the monstadt location and liyue instead of going to a much more graphical and hardest locations like fontain and sumeru to test the chip if it can play the genshin for consistent and now i can see it already.

[@habetke3973]

It is interesting to find out how the emulators works on Rog8 compared to Rog7. Does it make sense to change it?

[@Am1980mar]

Great review, thanks a lot!

[@Prcept1on]

I think this guy dont like pubgm 😂😂

[@artemis4651]

Hey there.. Did they optimize Mobile Legends by now to run 120fps?

[@LookAtMePls]

В MLBB нужно нажать на вопросик рядом с параметром, отвечающим за колличество кадров и нажать там "отправить", тогда сразу или после переустановки игры появится вариант с 90 FPS, если повторить действие, то появится вариант с 120 FPS ( разработчики из как-то по своему назвали, не помню как, но сути не меняет)

[@Danayiro]

Michas gracias por este video bro, en unos meses me comprare mi Asus Rog Phone 8 para jugar todo en graficos maximos 😁

[@tolisapostolidis4998]

Is support 120 fps at battle royal?can you tell me please???it will helps a lot

[@user-yw9dm3tk1g]

I've heard complaints that the airtriggers are not as responsive as they should be. Problems include delay of deactivation when lifting finger after a long press, getting wrongly activated by touching the areas near the airtriggers. Is it true?

[@lytah_neo7953]

Yes i have a rog 8

[@TimeOutMotivate]

Sadly yes.. the airtrigger sometimes stuck during CODWarzoneMobile. Sucks tho, I was looking forward to the latest ROG😢

[@Gtoonm]

Quick random question. In the developer settings, is there a toggle to unlock bootloader? I'm asking since Asus took down the unlock tool/servers

[@NasiLemakTech]

Yep, still here.

[@Gtoonm]

@@NasiLemakTech does that mean you can't unlock it by yourself and you need the unlock tool? Or that they added a setting for it to do it by yourself?

[@NasiLemakTech]

You'll still need an unlock tool. Actually I have a question for you as well, do you still use custom ROM?

[@Gtoonm]

@@NasiLemakTech I do still use custom ROMs. I am running one in my current phone. I wanted to know if there was the option to unlock the bootloader because I want developers to be able to make custom ROM for the ROG phone 8 after it stops receiving updates

[@NasiLemakTech]

@Gtoonm ah thanks for replying. What makes custom ROM your preferred choice?

[@vic0096]

So, do you recommend to go for the normal version or just paid a little more for the pro version? Besides the cooler.

[@NasiLemakTech]

Stick with the normal version if you're not going to use the cooler.

[@isaia5110]

Does the Rog phone 7 cooler work with the Rog phone 8 or will it be too big and the cameras will be in the way?

[@NasiLemakTech]

As shown in the video

[@fredericklopez8221]

44c to 43c seems hot dont you think? also you are already in aircon room right? so whats the temp when just outside gaming in realistic world?

[@NasiLemakTech]

Same temperature. That's the thermal limit. Phones can go up to around 75°C before anything bad happens. More info here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lXPHcpaNgtycn5osi=kuoGoSrcgRwdiB12

[@spike178]

Great 👍 cant decide which version to get. Was going to buy the pro still not sure. OnePlus 12 is a good gaming mobile plenty of power without the not so good triggers on the Asus that probably won't use.

[@benjaminjosephdimaano2780]

Been with oneplus bad experience only 1 year of gaming before it broke better go with rog

[@erazir]

Is this the Tencent Ver.?

[@wansyahreen7839]

[@NasiLemakTech]

Same capacitive keys as before

[@numalesoybea1348]

​@@NasiLemakTechthe touch triggers are hugely downgraded from previous RoG phones. Are you just obtuse?

[@NasiLemakTech]

Does anyone actually use the swipe gestures?

[@mlvn4903]

hi is the 256gb of storage for rog 8 enough for gaming and for daily use?

[@NasiLemakTech]

Depends on what games you install. Some games take up like 50GB easily

[@KINGT0MA]

its already SD8gen3 yet 120fps is still not available in CODM (BR MODE)?

RoG 7 or RoG 8 (normal version both) , is rog 8 trigger is good ? Because i see many people say rog 8 trigger not good

So can the rog phone 8 pro and rog phone 8 play without the triggers?

[@NasiLemakTech]

Sure can

[@Sam-hb2dz]

necessary question.....does this non-pro version comes with 16+512 specs?.....i personally prefer the one came with aura rgb lighting than the anime vision tho...

[@NasiLemakTech]

I think it does. I can't confirm

[@Sam-hb2dz]

​​@@NasiLemakTech had to ask because the 16+256 specs.....is really odd to me because usually is like 12+256 or 16+512....now there is a 24+1TB damnnn

[@NasiLemakTech]

TBH you don't need the extra RAM. Just the storage is enough. Here's the reason why kzbin.info/www/bejne/jaDLYoudotGfjdE

Go Test warzone mobile on the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 i Hope they fix that fast

[@arjay3733]

Hi, does ram and storage doesn't affect the performance?

[@NasiLemakTech]

RAM speed yes, and storage speed on loading times mostly.

[@arjay3733]

​@@NasiLemakTechok, thanks! But above recommended RAM has no difference at all right?

[@josephyu9478]

Wow its amazing the temp is just playing around below 45C even without the cooler

[@milosradulovic309]

It's too much.. I'm looking for a phone which will handle Mobile legends 120fps and ultra graphics, to not overheat and frame drop

[@ryancommentary]

Why ROG Phone 8 doesn't support ultra frame rates and ultra graphics?

[@NasiLemakTech]

Because the game developers didn't give us the option

[@rasyajasilva8871]

The temperature is horrible compared to rog7. The battery durability is gonna have a bad time getting toasted like that.

[@NasiLemakTech]

Nope, batteries can safely operate until 75°C The only thing that's not safe is our hands

[@sc9433]

​​​@@NasiLemakTechbattery can safely operate until 75c that is correct. But degradation happens at exposing it to temperatures above 35c, and the degradations will happens exponentially for every 10c above 35c. Long gaming sessions at 45-48c is definitely gonna cut short ur battery health by miles.

[@NasiLemakTech]

@@sc9433 Even scrolling websites will be above 35°C though. It's inevitable
