The device harnesses the massive power of the latest flagship Snapdragon 888, which packs industry-leading innovations in 5G, AI, gaming, and camera technologies. With up to a stunning 35% increase in GPU performance and 25% in CPU performance, even the most demanding 3D mobile games run smoothly with maxed-out settings.

To enable maximum sustained performance, the GameCool 5 cooling system now has an optimum thermal structure featuring a centered CPU with the battery split into two parts, one located on each side of the CPU. This ensures that the heat generated by the CPU is transferred to all the edges and corners of the chassis simultaneously for higher thermal efficiency. The reshaped 3D vapor chamber and extensive graphite sheets also help to spread the heat evenly across the device to reduce heat build-up in the middle.

The completely revamped AeroActive Cooler 5 now intakes and expels an incredible amount of air directly onto the center of the phone — right where the CPU is — to deliver an amazing 10°C drop in the CPU temperature.

Additionally, this phone is the world’s first smartphone to use a ridiculous 18GB of LPDDR5 RAM. There’s currently no smartphone game that can push the ROG Phone 5’s RAM to its limits.

To extend both screen-on time and the lifespan of the monster 6000 mAh battery, the phone is optimized using new software optimizations and power-saving mechanisms, including a charging upper limit, steady charging, and enhanced scheduled charging. There are also passive power-saving mechanisms to limit inactive apps and deliver up to 67% more power savings. The phone can self-optimize for the best power efficiency, no matter how it’s used.

Sadly, the device doesn’t seem to support wireless charging. Given its souped up hardware and the fact that its battery packs are split, the lack of wireless charging in favor of safe and steady fast charing via the 65-watt HyperCharge adapter is a smarter option.
