Review Asus ROG Phone 5 by GSMArena
Even more toned-down, but still ROG-inspired gamer's design with great build quality.
AirTigger 5 ultrasonic touch sensors are very precise and versatile. Motion controls are extended and greatly improved from last gen
Industry-leading stereo speaker performance, complete with gaming-specific sound tweaks
Superb AMOLED screen, 144Hz refresh rate.
Great battery life, even at full 144Hz. Rich battery health prolonging options. Very fast charging (65W charger bundled).
Fastest-available Snapdragon 888 chipset with an amazing thermal management.
Great Android implementation, an unparalleled number of game tweaks, control-mapping and performance options
Solid daylight photos, as well as low-light images. Impressive selfie quality
Very good video quality, impressive EIS
No longer backwards compatible with most ROG Phone II or 3 accessories. Available accessory ecosystem is significantly smaller than on previous models
AeroActive Cooler 5 not included with the vanilla model. The new design for both the cooler and its connector are hard to align and prone to damage
No water or dust resistance
No microSD
Rather basic camera setup, compared to typical 2021 flagships

Review Asus ROG Phone 5 by Pokde.net
New design looks absolutely gorgeous!
AeroActive Cooler 5 delivers much better sustained performance
65W fast charging is excellent for quick battery top ups
New internal layout puts the hottest parts away from your hands
144Hz display is a joy to use with great fluidity and excellent colors
Mind-blowingly good sound from the built-in stereo speakers
Improved RGB lighting is nice to have
Good camera performance in the right situation
Mediocre battery life despite huge 6000mAh battery
Snapdragon 888 can run quite hot
Pogo pins on the AeroActive Cooler 5 can scratch the frame
Camera shutter lag gets annoying for point-and-shoot usage
Macro camera needs autofocus
No backward compatibility with a large chunk of accessories that made the ROG Phone series unique

Powerful and feature-packed
The most elegant gaming phone yet
The ROG Vision OLED is a cool flex
Excellent front-facing speakers
18GB of RAM isn?t necessary for today?s apps and games
The value is tough as ever to justify
It?s total overkill for cloud game streaming
