Is there any battery life issue that you or anyone else may be aware of? Ever since the previous two updates.. my 6000mah battery has been functioning like a 4000mah lasting for a day tops
I've used the ASUS ROG Phone 3 for ~1 month, so Ask Me Anything!

How do you move the time on the lock screen or even remove it ? Ps: Not root and on standard rom too.
Greetings,
Have you played any DOS games on the ROG phone 3. I am currently trying to get gog "Master of Orion" to work on this phone. I have attempted to use several emulators (DOSBox turbo, Magic DOSBox, and Retrotech to make a few). Would greatly appreciate any feedback/help on this. Thx in advance...

1. I do not see any reddish tint on gray colors in low brightness levels in low ambient lighting. I tested at 144Hz, 1-20% brightness, dark room, and with the Reddit is Fun app set to a dark gray background.
2. I looked up a 5% grain photo and found a video on YT. At the minimum brightness wherein the picture becomes visible to my eye in a dark room, there's uneven graininess. Raising the brightness a bit and I can see horizontal banding. No issues at higher brightnesses, though.
3. Similar result on the ROG Phone 3, sadly.
No, the ROG Phone 3 does not support motion estimation/motion compensation, or MEMC, as it's called on the OnePlus 8 Pro or OPPO Find X2 Pro. The OnePlus 8 Pro and OPPO Find X2 Pro can do hardware-accelerated MEMC thanks to a dedicated display processor called the Iris 5, designed by a company called Pixelworks. More details on that here: https://www.xda-developers.com/pixe...ssor-android-display-experience-oppo-find-x2/
I don't see any obvious image retention at high brightnesses.
It's actually not quite as loud as the ROG Phone II. Still gets very loud in comparison to most devices, though. I've mentioned all the audio features that ASUS and Dirac added to the ROG Phone 3 in my review. You can thankfully tweak the speaker quality a bit with the 7-band equalizer and Bass/Treble slider in AudioWizard.4
I don't have the 8GB or 12GB RAM version, but I suspect they'll perform the same in day-to-day usage as my 16GB RAM model. Keep in mind that the 8GB RAM model has the Snapdragon 865 and not the Snapdragon 865+, so the CPU and GPU performance will be very slightly lower. I don't think it'll be noticeable, though.
The phone does not come with a screen protector pre-applied, though ASUS sent me an antimicrobial glass screen protector that I applied.
Yeah, the text isn't as sharp as on other phones with QHD+ displays like the OPPO Find X2 Pro (which I was using before this). I can see pixels when I look closely. It's not bad enough for me to have cared about until you mentioned it, though.
As for the weight and thickness, it was very easy for me to get used to it - I've been using large phones for over a year now, so the ROG Phone 3 doesn't phase me. However, it does sag a bit more in my pockets when I wear looser shorts at home, so yeah it's definitely thick and heavy haha.
Yes, there are screen off gestures. You can draw || with two fingers to pause/resume music, draw a < or > to change track, or draw a W, S, e, m, Z, or V to launch an app of your choice. Currently, you can't map AirTrigger to do "whatever" you want like double tap to fast forward, but I'm sure custom ROMs/root will open up that possibility. (I know several devs are already exploring porting AirTriggers over.)
Not with the ports facing downwards (ie. towards the table/desk), but you can flip it around and it'll actually stay up that way, lol. The downside to having it in reverse landscape orientation, though, is that the AirTriggers can't be used since they're at the bottom.3Hi XDA,
ASUS announced the ROG Phone 3 earlier today. I reviewed the phone for the XDA Portal after having used it for nearly a month (I received it on June 26th and published my review on July 22nd.) The phone has a metric ton of features, so if you have any specific questions about the ROG Phone 3, feel free to ask me a question. I'll enable notifications for new replies in this thread so I'll answer them as they come in.
I recommend reading the following posts first to see if they answer any of your questions:
Our launch coverage: ASUS launches the ROG Phone 3 with the Snapdragon 865 Plus, 144Hz display, and 6000mAh battery
My review: ASUS ROG Phone 3 Review: The King of Gaming Smartphones is back
I have also answered a few questions about the phone already on Reddit.3
Yes, the audio tuning (called "GameFX") is not just for game audio. Any audio played back through the speakers will benefit from the Dirac audio tuning. If you have an ROG headset, then Dirac's audio tuning profiles will also apply.
In CPU Throttling Test and GFXBench's Manhattan 3.1 long-term performance/battery lifetime test, the ROG Phone 3 does exhibit some thermal throttling. However, the drop in performance shouldn't be noticeable in most games, since the loads from these aforementioned benchmarks aren't reflective of real-world gaming loads.
I would look up the band support for the Tencent model on ASUS' website. As for the battery life...it'll trounce the OnePlus 8 Pro and Redmi K30 Pro, easily. The latter doesn't even have a high refresh rate display.
Speakers are better tuned than the ROG Phone II but get slightly less loud.
1) The display doesn't blow me away like the one on the OPPO Find X2 Pro did. That's the only display that has ever truly impressed me recently. However, it's still quite good and I didn't have any complaints while watching hours of anime on it
2) Easily the smoothest phone I've ever used, thanks to the max 144Hz refresh rate. I swapped from the ROG Phone 3 to the OnePlus Nord to do a review of the latter, and I really missed the smoother 144Hz display. 90Hz is a huge downgrade IMO.
3) ASUS has gotten a lot better recently, since the ZenFone 6 launch. They've shown they're willing to listen to community feedback and are taking their software more seriously. Still, software support requires manhours which means money, so we'll see how well things turn out.
I don't actually play many games on mobile either (though I forced myself to for the sake of the review), but yeah, go for it! I think the smooth 144Hz display and insane battery life are more than enough reasons to use the ROG Phone 3 over other devices.
ZenUI's TwinApps feature allows you to clone Pokemon Go, so you can clone PoGo downloaded from Google Play. I don't know about downloading the Galaxy Apps version, though.
I don't personally have issues with OLED flickering at low brightnesses, but no, there's no DC dimming option.2Hi and thanks for the review.
So I have had Rog 2 since the launch and although it's great overall, it has some big issues on display side and I want to know if rog 3 also suffers from the same issues.
1.the first issue that almost everyone knows about is the gray color turning to reddish color on lower brightness levels especially on 120hz. You'll have to test this with gray color background in a dark room but I can notice it even in a normal lit room.
2. the screen is kind of grainy and has a lot of bandings. you can also test this by downloading a 5% gray picture and turn the brightness all the way down in a completely dark room and look for oled bandings and lines and grainyness!
3. Huge Black crush! If you search google for "black crush test" the first result is a reddit question that leads to a video of a test picture. On rog 2 only and only on 100% brightness all the squares up to 5 are visible but as we turn down the brightness almost all squares become black (although they actually should be gray) and we can only see the first three squares at the bottom.(255% 100% and 50%)
and that means if we want to see everything in true color and we are supposed to see, we have to use 100% brightness all the time which not only hurts the eyes, but also brings screen burn-ins in as soon as 3 2 months.
Here's the youtube link for black crush test

I hope you can check these issues and give us real life feedback
thanks
