Asus' hints at the imminent launch of next-gen performance-dedicated premium Android smartphones seem backed up in new leaks apparently pointing to OS and SoC upgrades in the upcoming ROG Phone 8 series. Then again, these potential advantages are offset by unprepossessing charging specs.
RedMagic has just made some playfield-leveling claims for its upcoming 9 Pro series; however, its main competitor in this space might be ready to hit back with its own new generation of gaming smartphones. The 165Hz display ROG Phone line is backed to go up to 8 by these new tips.
Then again, the "ROG Phone 8" has 16GB of RAM, compared to 12 in the "9 Pro". In any case, the same putative Asus device will ship with 65W charging, according to the Chinese safety regulator 3C. That is fast compared to some (non-gaming) flagship smartphones; however, the fact is that the spec is unchanged compared to the ROG 7 Ultimate of 2022.

I became a professional writer and editor shortly after graduation. My degrees are in biomedical sciences; however, they led to some experience in the biotech area, which convinced me of its potential to revolutionize our health, environment and lives in general. This developed into an all-consuming interest in more aspects of tech over time: I can never write enough on the latest electronics, gadgets and innovations. My other interests include imaging, astronomy, and streaming all the things. Oh, and coffee.
