The new phone is unique compared to other phones because it has a pop-up camera on the side, 90W charging speed, and a weird name, Phone Duel. The Legion Phone Duel has a 6.65-inch screen with a resolution of 1080 × 2340 and a frequency of 144Hz. The Snapdragon 865 Plus processor comes with 12 or 16GB of RAM. This process has an integrated 5G modem.

The 5,000 mAh battery actually consists of two 2,500 mAh batteries which are charged with 90W, the highest speed in a smartphone currently leaving behind even the 65W Oppo phones. Placing the 20-megapixel pop-up camera on the side is due to the fact that the phone will be used most of the time horizontally. On the back is a 64-megapixel camera. Lastly, Lenovo has used ultrasonic buttons that work in the same way as the Black Shark 3 Pro buttons.

The phone will be available in four configurations. The Lenovo Legion Phone Duel will also be announced in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America but will not be sold in the US.

It will be compatible with Google Stadia, and also has a USB-C port on the side, so the charging cable does not bother you when playing in landscape mode. What finally stands out in the Asus ROG Phone 3 is the ultrasonic AirTrigger triggers. These are touch-sensitive surfaces on the edges of the phone that mimic the experience of using a normal controller. They are adaptable to user requirements, while the addition of a dual surface separation function gives the controller L1/L2 and R1/R2 buttons. In addition, the user can activate a game command when you shake the phone, for example, the player can reload his weapon.

Classically, Asus also offers additional accessories, such as the TwinView Dock 3 that adds another screen to the device and an electronic platform that lets you connect a keyboard and mouse. Later in the year will come the ROG Strix XG16, a 15.6-inch mobile screen with 144Hz, ROG Cetra RGB which are headphones with ANC and ROG Falchion a wireless mechanical keyboard with touch panel and 400 hours of lifespan.

In the cameras filed we have a triple display on the back with 64MP IMX686, 13MP ultra-wide 125 degrees, and 5MP macro lens. In video it is possible to shoot 8K at 30fps or 4K at 120fps. The selfie camera is 24MP.

The release of the Asus ROG Phone 3 is expected in September.

In Europe, for €999 you can get 12GB of RAM and 512GB of space, or for €100 more you can get the largest RAM ever in a smartphone, of 16GB. However, there is also a cheaper version for €799 with 8GB RAM and 256GB space.
