Asus is back to bring gaming mobile phones to the market. There are two devices that were stolen, namely ROG Phone 5s and ROG Phone 5s Pro.
There is no significant difference between the two phones with the ROG Phone 5 which was officially released a few months ago in the country.
ROG Phone 5s and 5s Pro are equipped with a new processor, Snapdragon 888 plus. The rest is almost the same as the ROG Phone 5.
Like the ROG Phone 5 Ultimate, Asus also embedded ROG Vision AMOLED on the back of the ROG Phone 5s Pro. The difference is, ROG Vision's ROG Phone 5s Pro can display animations and color images, while ROG Phone 5 Ultimate is only monochrome.
Asus also provides AirTrigger 5 support which offers gamers different ways to interact with the ROG Phone 5s and 5s Pro. The AeroActive Cooler 5 comes with two additional physical buttons to enable a console -like gaming experience.
Special ROG Phone 5s Pro, given a touch sensor feature hidden on the back cover and provides L2/R2 trigger function.
