Gaming phones are being quite popular these days and there are thousands of options for you in the market out there. Recently, one of the popular gaming brands, Asus has added 3 new powerful gaming phones, Asus Rog Phone 5, Asus Rog Phone 5 Pro, and Asus Rog Phone 5 Ultimate. With that being said another contender ZTE also launched its gaming series smartphone; Nubia Red Magic 6 and Nubia Red Magic 6 Pro that directly competes with ASUS gaming smartphones. We have already talked about Rog Phone 5 and Rog Phone 5 Pro in our previous post. So here, we will talk about the specs, availability, and expected price of the Asus Rog Phone 5 Ultimate in Nepal.
Asus Rog Phone 5 Ultimate Overview
Display and Design
Like Rog Phone 5 Pro, the Ultimate version also comes with a bigger 6.78 inches AMOLED panel that has a resolution of 1080 x 2448 pixels. The refresh rate of 144 Hz is also higher with an imposing aspect ratio of 20:9. Also, the touch sampling rate of up to 300Hz will take your gaming experience to the next height. It provides stunning visuals with world-beating color accuracy, and the new always-on HDR technology that improves non-HDR visuals is really impressive. The device is protected by a Corning Gorilla Victus. The DC dimming technology will avoid your eyes from straining even on heavy gaming for hours.
On the design side, we can see the phone has not gone through many upgrades. Like its predecessor, the triple camera stands out in a horizontally extended camera module. It has got an appealing design that looks equally powerful and a perfect grip to hold it tighter. The Republic of Gamers logo is perfectly smashed at the back. The LED flash is placed just next to the camera module. There is a tiny circular notch right-aligned at the top where it accommodates its selfie shooter. The device features the under-display and the optical fingerprint scanner and is available in single color-Matte White.
Performance and Memory
Speaking of the processor, the device ships with the latest Snapdragon 888 5G from Qualcomm. The graphics in this device is handled by the Adreno 660 GPU. No doubt, the combination of these two places Rog Phone 5 Ultimate as a powerful gaming device. There are also Cooler buttons to protect your device from overheating during heavy gaming. The phone will ship with Rog UI that is based on Android 11.
On the memory side, Asus Rog Phone 5 Ultimate is available in a single RAM variant: 18GB RAM with 512GB internal storage. The device does not support a card slot, so expanding the phone’s storage capacity is not possible.
Camera

The rear camera setup will help you capture your best moments with friends and family. For capturing selfies and making video calls, there is a 24MP front shooter available.

Similarly, the selfie shooter supports 1080p video at 30fps. Other highlights of the camera include a Pro video mode, Free Zoom, Wind Filter, and Acoustic Focus functions, etc.

The dual battery here is of 3000mAh each and is placed on either side of the hardware to distribute the phone’s weight more evenly in your hands.
