    Bet the price of that thing is going to be huge too.

    Don't think it will sell myself but I think a 90fps screen sounds like something every phone screen should have.

    Saw both Unbox Therapy's video which is linked above and Austin Evans reviews of it. Would serious gamers go for a phone like that? Wondering what price range it's going to be too especially with all the accessories that come with it.

    Who does any serious gaming on a phone?

    Much better off using that money for a PC or console.

    Battery seems decent, but would it last long though?

    All eyes on Kursk. Slava Ukraini.

    @KKkitty added the review you mentioned to OP as well.

    Sounds like this thing could end up costing a fortune with all additional (i assume proprietary) accessories.

    It seems like a novel enough phone but it's got to retail at a hefty price tag. I'm not sure serious gamers would be interested in it either.

    Its 100% aimed at the Asian market where mobile gaming is huge. May sell in the west just because they can but it'll never compete over here.

    It's a time thing for me. I have two young kids and a full time job so getting the time fire up a PC or Playstation sit through loading times and whatnot just isn't feasible.
    I play a lot of games on my phone, PUBG being my latest addiction!

    You can get a SSD for PC and put the OS and games on it. It will completely boot up to Windows 10 desktop from cold in less than 20 seconds, load times for most games would be several seconds.

    This completely changed gaming for me. The time difference compared to a standard hard disk is huge.

    I'm not a gamer but isn't the whole gaming experience about big screens. Like a poster said this phone might be ok for a game here and there when time is a factor. For an immersive experience with gaming it's just ok I guess.
