Last week’s survey was all about gaming phones following the announcement of the Asus ROG Phone 7 duo and it’s time to look at the results.
The majority of voters (over 42%) said they do not want a gaming phone for now. It seems most of you are still not sold on the idea of a dedicated gaming phone and there were several good reasons in the comments section.
High prices appear to be a major pitfall for devices like the ROG Phone 7 as they are in the same range as top-tier flagships from established brands. Some suggested gaming handhelds like the Steam Deck are a more viable alternative to a dedicated gaming phone.
The lack of flagship cameras hurts gaming phones compared to traditional flagships. The other issue noted is software support, which isn’t at the four- to five-year support level of premium phones from Samsung and Apple.
However, 22% of voters would choose the ROG Phone 7 Ultimate, while 14% would opt for the standard ROG Phone 7. Considering the price difference, the ROG Phone 7 Ultimate comes bundled with the AeroActive Cooler 7 in the box and has the AeroActive Portal, which is a motorized cooling vent that improves the efficiency of the cooling system. Oh and it has 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage as standard.
However, the ROG duo was never intended to surpass the iPhones and Galaxy S series in sales. And there seems to be enough demand in the niche they serve for them to be successful at their thing.
