Best smartphones for gaming

Over the last couple of decades, technology has developed greatly, particularly when it comes to mobile devices. Initially built as a mobile telephone, the device has changed almost beyond all recognition, as is used as a replacement for not just a telephone, but also a music player, camera, video recorder, word processor, and gaming center. Most people chose a phone based on its additional functionality, looking for graphics, battery life, and connectivity. One of the most popular uses for mobile devices is gaming. As more and more people use online gaming to relax and unwind, fill time whilst going about their daily business, and to socialize with friends and meet like-minded individuals. Some people have even started using mobile gaming as a way to make additional money, predominantly when they visit an online casino. Online casinos offer a little bit for every type of gamer and gambler, from the hard-core gambler who wants to experience the thrill of the roulette wheel in between casino visits to the skilled poker player looking to up the ante, to the casual gamer testing out the low stakes slot machines.

Gaming using smartphones has become so prevalent that developers are creating phones specifically for gaming. These range in price from the very high-end, high-spec models with all the bells and whistles, but there are also many very good models more competitively priced.

Asus Rog Phone II

From just ₹39999 the Asus Rog is one of the most affordable gaming phones on the market. It is also the most powerful and customizable smartphone out there. With a 6.59’’ AMOLED Display and 12-Hz refresh rate, this machine will play even the most graphics-heavy games. Additionally, this phone has been designed with gaming in mind; there are a number of game-oriented features, most notably pressure-sensitive shoulder buttons, and support for a wide range of gaming accessories.

OnePlus 8 Pro

A little pricier than the Asus at ₹54999, the OnePlus is also heavily geared towards gaming; the OxygenOS UI is specifically designed to provide maximum resources whilst gaming, and the large, bright screen supports HDR gaming. Additionally, the cameras (front and back) deliver high-quality photos and videos, and the 4,500mAh battery and supported 30W wireless charging makes this so much more than just a phone.

Poco X2

One of the cheapest gaming smartphones on the market at just ₹17156, the Poco X2 is an excellent choice for the budget-conscious gamer. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 730G Chipset is tuned specifically for gaming, and the smooth 120Hz display is made even better by activating the gaming mode.
