The ROG Phone 10 Pro costs $1,199 and packs an active cooling fan right into the chassis. It runs heavy titles at a locked 165 frames per second without breaking a sweat.

Cooling hardware and real-world performance
Asus priced the ROG Phone 10 Pro at $1,199 in the US, and the hardware justifies that figure if your phone is essentially a handheld console. The phone runs on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chip paired with up to 24GB of LPDDR5X memory. Under sustained load in Genshin Impact and Warzone Mobile, the internal vapor chamber keeps frame rates locked at 165Hz for two hours straight before you see even a two-frame drop.
The physical cooling vent on the back panel opens automatically when internal temperatures cross 41 degrees Celsius. It is loud enough to hear in a quiet bedroom, but the trade-off is clear: zero thermal throttling during extended ranked matches.
Display, battery, and controls
You get a 6.78-inch AMOLED panel running at 1080p native resolution with a peak refresh rate of 185Hz for supported titles. The touch sampling rate hits 720Hz, which makes swipe inputs feel instant in competitive shooters.
- The ultrasonic AirTriggers on the right shoulder map to any touch zone on the glass without third-party software.
- The 6,800mAh split-cell battery charges from flat to 100 percent in 38 minutes using the included 85W brick.
- A second USB-C port on the side lets you plug in power cables or headsets without blocking your grip.
The cameras remain the weak point. Asus kept the 50MP main sensor from last year, and low-light photos look muddy compared to standard flagships. Buy this for the raw frame rate stability, not for family portraits.
