gamer I wear gamer clothes and now maybe I've got a gamer phone we have ASUS's new Rog phone seven and seven ultimate in these are looking pretty good high refresh rate screen coolers built in that's it amazing performance out of the Snapdragon 8 gen 2. it's looking like the all-around package let's dig into it and see what we've got so we have two boxes here we have the Rog phone seven and the Seven ultimate the phones are very similar so we'll take a quick look at both but let's focus on the unboxing of the ultimate because this thing is crazy it looks like a drop ship or a container and a Halo game or something like that and I'm a big fan because I'm a gamer all right so we got this flap here and it looks like it's going to be a stand for the phone but let's dig into this main box it's in a little bit of a rough shape Labs must have had a great time taking a look at this phone all right let's see what's in this box maybe it comes with a case that'd be sick got our Sim popper oh it's actually got a kind of neat design inside oh we did get a case unfortunately it's not that clear plastic one that I love getting with all those budget phones but this is definitely something this definitely is not going to protect your phone at all uh we have the phone but let's dig underneath to see what's in here because obviously it's a pretty big box this is the included 65 watt charger so it's nice that includes your big charger so you can keep the phone going if you're gaming you don't want to take long pauses to have to fill it with power that's not fun it's also a nice sleeve USB C2C cable what is that eight feet all right let's see what else is in here wow a nice little carrying case where I'm assuming the Aero cooler and free candy nice let's see what the Aero cooler looks like so the seven ultimate the main difference is that it does come with this Aero cooler we did have Labs tested out so make sure to stay tuned for that but as for now I think it looks pretty cool you can see the fan deep inside there lots of little fins so in theory it should do pretty well with heat dissipation and that's everything in the box so let's take a look at the phone itself the Rog Phone 7 Ultimate no longer pros this is such a huge advancement it's ultimate now oh okay we got a little bit of goo on it from the adhesive but nothing too crazy and it does feel really good in the hands so they call it the 2.5 D screen so it's got that slight bit of rounding but the front screen itself is actually flat which I do appreciate I get accidental touches all the time because I guess I don't know how to hold a phone that's slightly curved but the actual feel of it in your hand with it still being that bit curved while the screen isn't feels really nice as for the design on the back uh I do enjoy it I like the kind of cyber Punky look it's pretty tasteful it's not anything too too crazy just has some lines something too like obscene we do have our triple camera system with flash I like a little bit of an angle that they've added with this little identification bar I guess I'm going to call it and then we have what I'm guessing is an attachment for the Aero cooler not 100 sure what that is but we'll find out and the passive Matrix OLED walking around the phone here on the right side we have our power button and volume rocker I also like the accent of the blue on the power button tasteful nice on the top we have just a mic hole and antenna lines on the left side here we have a USBC 3.1 Port which is awesome so it does quick charging DisplayPort 1.4 and you can see here it has Pogo pins for attaching the Aero cooler or any other sort of accessories on the side pretty convenient to have a charging port on the side as well as the bottom so that depending on how you're holding it you can still keep your phone charged while you're playing I know that's a big annoyance for me is that depending on how you're holding your phone your hands kind of blocking that cable and I have to decide whether to hold the phone weird or not charge and you know I don't want to stop gaming further down the left side here we have a blue SIM tray Port again I really like that accent color I know for a fact it's on SD card slot which is disappointing and lovely it is a dual nano sim on the bottom would you believe it we have a headphone jack gamers are plugged in and then we have a another USBC this is not a super fast charging DisplayPort one but still gives you the speed you'll probably end up needing most of the time I don't know if I like it being off to the side here it also feels like maybe it should have been on the other side because what can be convenient with it being off center is that if you're holding the phone in landscape you can still charge using this port but it seems like the phone was meant to be up the other way because all of the font is actually upside down if you hold it this way so you'd have to flip it over if you want to you know show off but I guess you're then not covering the headphone jack and then on the front here the main event the 6.78 inch full HD Plus AMOLED HDR plus 165 Hertz one millisecond response time 720 Hertz touch rate sampling phone screen with a chin and forehead but the benefit is the camera doesn't cut into the display because touch rejection is usually pretty good on phones but if you don't have to worry about it and you know your hunches aren't going to touch a phone screen that's the best way to do it and one thing I just realized we didn't see any speakers around the phone and that's because they have front facing speakers you can kind of see there's a little bit of a slit at the top and at the bottom those are speakers and boy howdy do they have some buzzwords five magnet 12 by 16 super linear front-facing Dirac HD sounds this is I guess maybe top of the line we're gonna hear and find out later as for weight I wouldn't say it's too heavy feels like kind of any Flagship but we'll wait and see exactly how much it does weigh with our man Linus 250 grams is that heavy slightly the only thing that's kind of disappointing about the RG Phone 7 and 7 Ultimate is that another Super water resistant they're only ip54 which means good against splashes but don't submerge it take a quick look at the regular RG Phone 7 see if there's any major differences just come with a case it does that same kind of plastic shell is included with this phone comes with the same 65 watt charger but instead of the storm white we have the ultimate in the only color the ultimate comes in but this one we have in its Phantom black so we'll see how that looks yeah taking a look at it I like this black it's pretty snazzy the back is quite a bit different so it has this kind of iridescent see-through plastic that does look pretty snazzy but I could tell already it is quite fingerprinty this one here is just a solid plastic so not transparent whatsoever but you can't see fingerprints that's kind of the nice thing about a white phone and this material which also notice the difference is it doesn't have that pmo LED screen or the attachment for the Aero cooler and the accents instead of being blue are this red which is cool as for ports and buttons all the same as the RG Phone 7 Ultimate again just with the red accents instead of the blue I forgot we got to try the case on I'm assuming it's the same phone size let's try the seven ultimate case on this don't do that don't drop it yeah it uh I'm not a huge fan of it the nice kind of 2.5 D curve is gone because now this is sharp rail all right let's turn these on and see if you know it can game but first let's talk about our sponsor Newegg looking for the latest technology to upgrade your gaming rig home office or

the same they're not we may as well try it on to see what the difference is maybe my mind will be completely changed maybe this case is way better the one that's included with the RG phone 7. no it's still bad since the phones are so so similar with the same specs between them and everything like that we're just going to focus on the RG Phone 7 Ultimate because it can use the Aero cooler and I think that's pretty cool uh powering it on here we can see it's got a cool custom background and skin for the clock big fan of a good uh clock skin we swipe in here we can see yeah they've definitely skinned this uh version of Android with their gamery look it looks like Armory crate if you uh have any ASUS accessories on your PC I'm not a huge fan of the whole circle look it's actually one of the reasons I don't like Sony phones but luckily enough when I gave Logistics this phone to set up for me uh they were actually presented with an option of choosing stock Android or this ASUS skin so if you don't like the look of this don't use it as for bloatware and all the stuff like that nothing too crazy again some of these apps are going to be from Labs but messenger Instagram Reddit seems like there's only four or five different apps that came with the phone so that's nothing too crazy as for specs the RG Phone 7 Ultimate only comes in one configuration which is 16 gigs of RAM and 512 gigs of storage but if you don't need that much you just want the RG Phone 7 you can't get a 12 gigs of RAM and 256 gigs of storage be aware there is no SD card expansion so you're going to be stuck with what you got as for processor it does have the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 as I mentioned earlier which is an absolute beast in performance if you don't know what that means that's fine we'll take a look at that later on it also supports Wi-Fi 7 and 6E this will be a great option because it's going to stay a bit future-proof for you and has Bluetooth 5.3 so you'll get the low battery usage better audio quality everything like that I'm not gonna pretend to be a master Bluetooth I don't know what's going on what's the difference between 5.2 and 5.3 what about just Bluetooth six like I don't get it and we can see it has a 6 000 milliamp hour battery as well and what's really cool about that is it's actually a dual 3000 cell battery so by having two different batteries you kind of start to drain them and then fill them back up quicker as they're a smaller capacity just know that your phone will charge faster and you'll get to play longer because of it and finally this is running Android 13 with again the skin over top if you'd like what is nice it does come with two years of os of dates and four years of security updates though there is an asterisk after the security updates I don't know what that means but be aware I've just been informed that the batteries are actually uh balanced in the phone perfectly balanced as all things should be now that we've heard about specs I know you just want to know about gaming but but we got to do crab brief all right let's see if this five magnet speaker actually does anything it sounds really good like holy smokes it gets really loud the one thing is is when I had it at max volume the bass did start to kind of distort a little bit but once I lowered it down even just a couple Taps sounded way better and when you have it in your hands facing you it sounds really really good really really impressed as the screen gets pretty darn bright it does get up to 1200 nits which is great we did have Labs check it and on both the seven and the Seven ultimate it gets up to around 470 nits and while the ultimate does get two units higher at 472 that's just within margin of error screen quality is definitely fine it would be great if it was a little bit higher than 1080p but I understand the trade-off to get the higher refresh rate and better battery life it's a AMOLED screen so the colors are really Punchy and look very very vibrant and of course the darks look great four cameras on the seven and seven ultimate we have a 50 megapixel main camera a 13 megapixel Ultra wide and a 5 megapixel macro camera odd again I don't really see the use of a macro camera all that often a lot of times ultrawide cameras can just shoot macro I would rather have a telephoto but we'll see if it's any good and then if you're wondering this is a flash that makes your pictures brighter in the dark as for the app itself I mean it looks like every camera app ever let's take a photo with this main camera here and see how it looks alright now let's try the ultra wide which I am a fan of I think it's a fun camera to have wow looks pretty good Sven is a little bit soft in the face uh and the red of the clock is a little bit orange and a little bit fuzzy but nothing too crazy everything looks a lot more lifelike and I didn't actually change any settings though the Vancouver side in the back does look a little bit more mangled which is interesting colors again look pretty decent the red of the sign uh the darkness of the background is not lost of course we gotta take a picture with the 5 megapixel macro the love tiger same problem we had with the unit hurts I wish it told you what four to six centimeters is because I don't know and having to look over is silly in my mind at least if you get close to an object in the main camera modes it does warn you that you should either move back or switch into the macro mode but it would be great if it just moved in the Mac mode automatically these look pretty good our little subjects looking handsome as always this is an 8K video 24 FPS one thing to note is it does punch in a bit when you switch to 8K all the cameras do have Eis so not Optical image stabilization but electronic I would say pretty darn solid and again most people are probably gonna be filming at 8K but there was no lag or hitches or anything like that and the mic is good but I wouldn't say is like as good as the Samsung's Googles and apples of the world now let's check out the selfie shooter because you know sometimes you want to snap a quick selfie and send it in the Discord server with all your pals uh when you get a big dub so let's see how this looks it does look very clear it's a 32 megapixel camera so of course it should brightness and color temperature looks good for sharpness I know some will kind of overcompensate with the sharpness and it's like whoa but this one here looks pretty good one thing to note is taking a video right away it's really punched in I actually looked around for settings to punch it out it's like if you were this close to me in a grocery store I would take a step back so something to be aware of if you have short arms that might not be very impressive but the exposure changing for my face does look good it's time no not an update no what do they call if I wear two monocles Bionicle it's done playing gunshot man this game looks good this is everything on Max and uh we're running out of solid 60. gentian doesn't allow for more than 60 FPS so we can't fully utilize the 160hz screen but this looks great and if you don't want to take my word for it here's some information from Labs like most the phones we've tested with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 this phone performs excellently in Dolphin emulator playing Mario Kart Wii the seven and seven ultimate were both locked at 61 FPS for against an impact it was 60fps give or take a frame here there on both the 7 and 7 Ultimate Call of Duty mobile locked 95 and unhappy raccoon 60fps give or take a couple with the seven performing slightly worse than the 7 Ultimate but with all this gameplay and stuff like that how much did the battery actually last well Labs check that out as well both the 7 and 7 Ultimate were able to last up to 35 hours that's really impressive if you're just gonna be like on a bus or on a plane for a long trip and just watching a video on your phone at you know low brightness and for what the min minimum battery is the phone was able to get 3.3 hours so if you're a big mobile gamer and you just want to absolutely play at it's the best all the time don't expect this to last super long but if you're somebody who's just gonna hang out and watch a video on their phone for a while this will last you ages so I thought the cool it started with a temperature of 25 degrees and got to a peak of 40 but with the cooler it started at 23 degrees and got to a peak of 41 and the score of the test was actually higher without the cooler than with the cooler what it all comes down to is that pretty much the 7 and 7 Pro are identical performance was extremely similar between the two and the frame here or there that was different is probably just margin of error or you know luck of the draw and but what's interesting is that whole the cooler making the phone perform worse maybe that little bit of power draw means the soc can't fully perform I'm not sure but maybe just maybe the looks make it worth it let's throw it on and see in force it on here it tells you the cooler temperature and the system temperature which 93 degrees Fahrenheit I don't speak Freedom Units but I mean it sounds high does give you a nice cooling effect from the fans on your hands though which is nice and it gives you an additional four buttons so you have this kind of grip trigger and then index finger trigger as well nice the app looks pretty cool so it has a smart mode a cool mode Frosty and Frozen so cool is just steady airflow smart will change it based on whatever it wants to do and frosty is high speed but I cannot do frozen unless I'm plugged in uh it doesn't even actually tell you what it is all right in the settings for air triggers we can see though there's different squeeze gestures for Google assistant or X mode which is just you know pushing the phone into higher performance levels and then the squeeze Force Level so the amount of force needed to do all these different features we do have lighting controls so you can have your like notifications for incoming call for music X mode charging what's nice is you can also change the lights on the left and right side of the unit so you have two different colors uh yeah it's pretty neat looking what's really cool is uh this Aero active portal so if you click on that it'll actually open up the phone to help rapidly dissipate heat pretty tricky to see but it is open my iPhone can't do that I don't know if you can hear it super clearly but it is decently loud though if you're on the bus and this is you got your fan on just bump the stereo what's cool is that the cooler actually has some extra ports on it so you have the pass-through for the USB and it adds another headphone jack so that's cool if you don't want to have you know something come off the side here because again your hands are going to be here you still get to use a headphone jack here we go let's try Frozen mode like you put this on beside your bed ASMR White Noise for you let's try going back into engine impact to see if we get even more performance wow still run smooth and we know for a fact it didn't make a huge difference anyways thanks to Labs overall this phone can game it can take pretty decent photos it makes neat sounds and the cooler is hard to get off a thousand dollars that's the regular seven there's actually no pricing we have for the seven ultimate yet and even release date is just kind of Q2 though I assume the seven will come out uh this month in April depending on how much the ultimate goes for some of these features are kind of neat like that pmo-led screen that you'll rarely see is neat this little Port that opens up to go off the phone is neat this Aero cooler is neat for myself I think this is a pretty solid package I love the option of using the Army crate scan or just talk Android and of course with the Snapdragon hn2 you're gonna get solid performance and battery life as we saw is you know solid what do you think let us know down in the comments thank you so much for watching and make sure to subscribe if you want to check out a video check out the unit hurts Luna phone that was weird
