Razer, maker of gaming laptops and peripherals, just launched their entry to the mobile market, the Razer Phone. Get to know this beast of a gaming phone.
Design
At first glance, the device looks great. It looks boxy, but pretty solid. It has large bezels and speakers take up space on the top and bottom of the phone. But since it is phone focused on mobile gaming, the speakers are a perfect place to rest our thumbs while gaming. It does not have a headphone jack, but it does include a USB type-C DAC for you to connect your headphones.
Performance
With the device being gaming centric, we expect the Razer phone to have high specifications to handle the most demanding mobile games. The device is equipped with a Snapdragon 835, and a whopping 8 GB of RAM.
Camera
The Razer Phone does have a dual rear camera setup. But some say that there is nothing noteworthy about it. It doesn’t mean that it is bad, it’s just not that great.
Other Features
The device also has Dolby Atmos and is equipped with THX certified hardware, guaranteeing great sound. But the best feature about the phone is its screen. The device is equipped with a 120 Hz display for very smooth video when gaming. It also has a 4000 mAh battery so you can game for hours.
