Performance
At the heart of the ROG Phone 8 is the cutting-edge Qualcomm SM8650-AB Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, which operates on a 4 nm process. The octa-core CPU configuration includes a high-performance Cortex-X4 core, three Cortex-A720 cores, and a couple of Cortex-A520 cores, working together with the Adreno 750 GPU to deliver exceptional speed and graphics performance. Running on Android 14 with promises of future upgrades, the ROG Phone 8 provides a smooth and up-to-date user experience. Internal storage options of 256GB combined with 12GB or 16GB of RAM cater to intense gaming and multitasking needs, although the absence of expandable storage could be a consideration for some users.
