And quoting India's prices isn't really relevant as the ROG 2 sold out in minutes and no one outside of India could buy one. Of course, the third-world-country prices will be lower than in Europe and the US

Android.Master, 17 Jul 2020Android can run a variety of emulators. IOS? Well emulator support might arrive 20 years late... moreI know it cam run emulators. I've been using Android phones since the first Galasy S phone. Emulation is still hit-and-miss and you're still playing 10+ years old games, so it's not exactly the same as playing BotW on the Switch. And yeah, I know there were Custom ROG 2 ROMs but they had issues too.

Benchmarks don't reflect real world performance in apps and games.
The Poco F2 pro annihilates the iPhone in speed tests despite scoring low in Single core benchmarks.
Feel free to check all that I mentioned on YouTube.
People like you have never gone past the Apple walled Garden and are thereby clueless about the paper champ nature of the A13 chip.

Still it will overheat after couple of hours.
ROG 2 has no such issues. Can use Bluetooth headphones since it has 4 WiFi antennas and performance is not compromised over wireless networks. Also chipset doesn't throttle after continuous gaming. And don't have to close background apps during gaming.

How about you actually run heavy games on iPhone and then run that heavy game on a gaming phone like ROG 2 over a couple of hours(sustained load like continuous gaming).
You will see all the throttling, overheating and frame drops.
Youtubers have already tested these things. All the results are already out there.
