Since entering 2024, new phones of major brands have been launched one after another, and old flagships such as iPhone are rushing to give discounts at the end of the year, and a new round of replacement cycle has gradually begun. However, for mobile game users, they will face a problem when changing their phones, whether to buy the iPhone 15 with stronger parameters and theoretical performance, or to buy an Android game phone?
As a veteran player of mobile games, iPhone and Android game phones have experienced, from my personal point of view, the theoretical performance of the iPhone is really strong, basically it can be said that it is one to two generations ahead of the Android competitors in the same period, but there will be deviations between the actual performance and the theoretical performance, such as the heat dissipation design of the iPhone will lead to a short peak performance output time, heating, Caton and other problems will still appear, and there are details such as signal, touch operation, etc., so even if the account ios and Android are not interoperable, I personally also recommend the iPad more than the iPhone.
In contrast, after years of iterative upgrades, the Android camp game phone has not only been able to achieve a comprehensive and ultimate game experience, but also a good balance to daily use, ** compared to the iPhone is also more close to the people, such as the ROG game phone released some time ago8, it is very worth starting with mobile game players, you might as well take a look.
First of all, let's take a look at the performance configuration that is directly related to the smoothness of the game, the ROG gaming phone 8 Pro is equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, which is currently the strongest in the Android camp, and provides up to 24GB LPDDR5X, as well as 1TB UFS 4With 0 top-of-the-line specs and ROG's exclusive tuning of the X mode, the performance is very strong, and it can easily run various large-scale mobile games such as Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Dome Railway.
Not only that, but the ROG Phone 8 is also equipped with the newly upgraded Matrix Liquid Cooling Architecture80, with a newly designed thermal conductive copper pillar, with the SoC mid-mounted design, can be more efficient heat dissipation, long gaming games without worrying about the problem of stuttering and frame drops caused by heating, which is also the biggest advantage of ROG 8 compared to iPhone and other Android flagships, and can even be equipped with a cool fan to unlock the exclusive X+ performance mode and freezing mode.
In terms of screen, the iPhone 15 is still a full-blooded 60Hz screen, and the Pro version only has 120Hz, while the ROG game phone 8 is equipped with a 165Hz refresh rate Samsung E6 material flexible vertical screen, with a central punch hole design, support1 120Hz LTPO adaptive refresh rate adjustment, it can be said that not only the screen display is more complete than the iPhone's dynamic island, but also in terms of smoothness, picture coherence, and control response. The ROG Phone 8's 165Hz gaming display also has an advantage over the iPhone 15.
When it comes to the control experience, ROG gaming phone 8 also has exclusive AirTriggers shoulder buttons, when playing games, you can customize the mapping buttons according to your needs and your own habits, and easily achieve multi-finger operations, such as various silky combos in "Honor of Kings", shooting while moving while opening the scope when eating chicken, worshipping Buddha marksmanship and other high-level operations, although the iPhone can also achieve multi-finger operation, but basically can only rely on hand speed or peripherals, The shoulder buttons that come with the ROG Gaming Phone 8 are still more convenient and have more ways to play.
At the system level, the iPhone basically does not have any optimization for the game, so it is often interrupted by various notifications, ** to affect the experience, ROG gaming phone 8 not only optimizes the signal, performance, notification, vibration and other details, greatly improving the immersion of the game, and even adds AI game auxiliary functions, such as using AI for text recognition, you can quickly share or find the corresponding strategy, and at the same time, there are automatic pick-up props in the wild, automatic acceleration of the dialogue with NPC, Lock the running state, or automatically release the control during the battle, etc., and have cooperated with game developers such as "Genshin Impact" and "Honkai: Star Railway".
There is also battery life and fast charging, in this regard, Android phones can be said to be far ahead, ROG gaming phone 8 has a built-in 5500mAh battery, supports 65W fast charging, even heavy use does not have to worry about power problems, and in order to allow players to have a good experience while playing while charging, ROG gaming phone 8 also has a USB-C port on the side, you can also charge the phone when you hold it horizontally, and there are 3 others5mm headphone jack, signal, etc., are also advantages that the iPhone does not have.
In general, for mobile game players, the game experience that ROG gaming phone 8 can bring is almost better than that of iPhone, including performance heat dissipation, high screen swiping, multi-finger operation, system optimization, AI-assisted gameplay, battery life signal, etc., and all kinds of configurations can also take into account the daily experience well, plus 4799**, I personally think it is more worth starting than iPhone.
