Are You Gamer Enough for the Razer Phone 2?

[Emily Young]

Razer created the “gaming phone” market, but were they "insane" to do so? New challengers await... Will the Razer Phone 2 sink or swim?

I still don't understand why anyone would want a gaming phone...

So same performance as any flagship but way uglier and bulkier but it has a small piece of metal on the SOC? I am sold!

Does it have vapor chamber cooling like the ROG? If not, pass. Phones are slow when they get warm, you should benchmark that more. Once the battery gets over 40C they throttle (at least Motorolas) to prevent the battery getting too warm. Slow a molasses. So I think the ROG is the best phone to get for sustained performance and summer use. 
Wanting to be patient and wait for the Snapdragon 855 phones as this will be another step up. 855 with vapor chamber cooling yes.

Dose The Razer Phone Support SIM cards from companies like at&t & Verizon?

Just looks so outdated in terms of both price and style for a android phone.

linus forgot the main reason why i think the bezels are there. i think they are there so you can hold it comfortably in landscape mode.

>The camera is bad

wut. Looked fine to me. Heck, it even looks better in the comparison shot. Looks more accurate. Asus phone has a crazy amount of smoothing.

anyone playing any kind of "high end" games built for mobile will be using something like bluestacks or NOX so it's "power" is fairly pointless. my SD625 is more than enough for me for mobile gaming and i play what i would call "high end" games
