If you already know what the ROG Phone line is all about, get ready to get your socks blown off because the ROG Phone 9 is packed to the gills with...
The specs of the phone are bombastic. 24 gigs of RAM for highest variant, 185 Hz support ( and I thought Moto’s 144 Hz was the upper limit) but let down by only 2 Android OS upgrades. All major OEMs, even Chinese ones are committing to longer term update support and seeing a phone with such specs being let down by software is a disappointment.
the movement from stereo FRONT FACING speakers to the regular smartphone setup hurts, just like the punchhole, as well as the removal of the notification led.

3.5mm jack?!
Yes, it has a 3.5mm jack.
They have one with 24GB of RAM?? That’s more than most consumer laptops.
That’s more than my gaming rig!
It’d be high on my list if it wasn’t for the 2 major versions of support. So little lifespan!
And they don’t allow bootloader unlocking to allow ROMs with better support even after they’ve given up on it
Yup. So I’m looking at a fairphone instead lol
Technically it’s “up to 2”, zero is up to 2.
Ugh. I know the last ROG phone was 2, but you’re right. Even worse.
