ROG Phone 2 announced

Okay, so now it's official, official.


The Asus Republic of Gamers 2nd phone is out and it's got some mega specs:

6.6" 1080p @ 120Hz
Snapdragon 855+
12GB RAM
512GB storage
48MP f/1.79 (26mm equivalent)+ 13MP (11mm equivalent, 125°) / 24MP
6000mAh

Holy heck ... 6000mAh, that's crazy amounts of play time.  It has the in display fingerprint sensor too.



It's out today in China, whereas in Canada we're going to have to wait until Aug 30th to place pre-orders.

The only downside it seems is that it looks like the older peripherals may not work on new (I'm guessing, only because there seems to be a crop of all new peripherals and don't specifically say that the port is backwards compatible).  Hope that's not the case.
