Editorial report
Asus ROG Phone 9 FE 16 GB / 256 GB / Global technical sheet
The Asus ROG Phone 9 FE is for anyone seeking an Android phone built around gaming, with a high-refresh-rate display and gaming buttons. Its Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and 16 GB of RAM make for a strong setup for games and demanding tasks; this version pairs that memory with 256 GB of storage.
The 6.78″ display runs at 185 Hz, among the highest refresh rates of phones of its time, and its 2,500-nit peak brightness is higher than that of most. Performance is better than most: its 16 GB of RAM and AnTuTu result of 2,342,007 both stand out. The trade-off in handling is its 225 g weight and 8.9 mm thickness, both greater than those of most phones of its time. The main camera’s f/1.9 aperture is also worse than most, although it has optical image stabilization; there is no optical zoom.
The 5,500 mAh battery capacity is typical. Its 65 W wired and 15 W wireless charging, however, exceed the charging power of most phones of its time. The camera overall is better than most, while connectivity is among the best, with Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, and dual SIM. The Asus ROG Phone 9 FE earns a NeoScore of 8.1. It is a compelling fit for anyone prioritizing gaming, a fast display, and flexible charging, and willing to accept a heavier, thicker phone.
