This is ASUS’ first smartphone to feature 5G, LPDDR5 RAM, and a triple rear camera setup right out of the box. Gaming-wise, the improved AirTrigger now features dual-partition button emulation that lets you do taps and slide gestures, on top of a new motion sensor that allows you to shake the device as an input.
