The Potential for Mobile Gaming

• 🤔 The advancements in mobile compute, such as Apple's Mac Mini and the Snapdragon 8 Elite, demonstrate the potential for powerful and efficient mobile gaming.
• 📊 The Steam Deck's success with an x86 chip shows that mobile gaming can be viable, but its size is a limitation.
• 📈 The Asus ROG Phone 9 Pro's performance and efficiency make it an ideal candidate for a device with a built-in control pad.

The ROG Phone 9 Pro and Its Potential

• 📱 The ROG Phone 9 Pro has a 185 Hz AMOLED screen, fast performance, and a large battery, making it suitable for gaming.
• 🤝 However, its camera setup and lack of a built-in control pad hold it back from being a perfect gaming phone.
• 📈 With the expiration of the patent, the ROG Phone 10 or X could be an opportunity for Asus to create a device with proper controls and insane performance.
