The specs of the phone are bombastic. 24 gigs of RAM for highest variant, 185 Hz support ( and I thought Moto's 144 Hz was the upper limit) but let down by only 2 Android OS upgrades. All major OEMs, even Chinese ones are committing to longer term update support and seeing a phone with such specs being let down by software is a disappointment.

Yes, it has a 3.5mm jack.

It'd be high on my list if it wasn't for the 2 major versions of support. So little lifespan!

Technically it's "up to 2", zero is up to 2.

Ugh. I know the last ROG phone was 2, but you're right. Even worse.

And they don't allow bootloader unlocking to allow ROMs with better support even after they've given up on it

[–] frank@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago

Yup. So I'm looking at a fairphone instead lol

They have one with 24GB of RAM?? That’s more than most consumer laptops.

[–] keyez@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

That's more than my gaming rig!

the movement from stereo FRONT FACING speakers to the regular smartphone setup hurts, just like the punchhole, as well as the removal of the notification led.
