  1. Pixel 5 pro is the right term, well said marquees, while seeing we could see lot of pixel vibes to it with the screen and bezel setup everything on top of clean Android 12 and Material UI 🙌😎

  2. This phone ticks all the boxes and more. I'm extremely impressed.
    I would love to buy it right now if my current phone wasn't less than 1 year old.

  3. Compact phones are always a welcome to use… that's why I am still using the PIXEL4A even in 2022 and I love the compact feeling of that one, alongside the time tested single lens camera !

  4. FYI- as far as I'm aware all Samsung Folding phones with a fingerprint scanner power button should also do the swipe down notification thing

  5. REALLY REALLY happy to see some big-time youtubers covering this phone. I am pushing to get it as a "designed for fi" product on google. I really really want to see it there.

    I'm actually sincerely counting on the big tech youtubers like you to make it popular here in the US. Literally no one is going to make it happen but you. Give it more coverage. Compare it to phones in every video. Keep bringing it out for size comparisons as the "standard". And it'll get popular.

  6. I'm an Apple fan but I really love this phone. This looks like one of the best android phones I've ever seen and seems incredibly well polished. Good job ASUS.

  7. Can you talk about how Apple is increasing their Apple Music subscription (for students too)? As if they don’t make enough money as is. What a disgrace. Spotify time!

  8. The problem with ASUS phones is that their software support is worse than modern day OnePlus. It is abysmal. It has always been terrible. I remember my Zenfone 3 stopped installing updates from the playstore.

  9. I hope this launches in India.. i was waiting for a Phone like this.. compact and powerful.. we dont have phones like this anymore.. perfect for me. I hope bootloader unlock and custom roms will come for this phone

  10. I am in love with the accent and backdrop setup which Marquees is doing so neatly for each and every review, the two ring lights he is mentioning the camera cutout shape sweet 😘, the joysticks on the rack guess Asus is a gaming phone right so to denote that and with the red black red tone to it sweet again 😘 and the big airpod speaker guess the shape of it looks like 9 so Asus 9 , marquees is killing with object hints nowadays 😎

  11. The downside for me, is that it sounds like it will only work properly on T-Mobile, unless they make concessions with AT&T, it won't have full band compatibility with AT&T. T-Mobile is still a third place carrier in the States and I don't know how the public will handle that yet. It won't help Asus, I can tell you that.

  12. Phone manufacturers take note. I am looking at you Apple. It’s time for some very large changes in the mobile arena. The playing field has been stale for a while. Ready for some new innovative tech. Innovation has been out the door for a while.
