What do I think about the device and price?
Well, it comes in strong with a flagship price, which is a little on the high side, even with the Free Gifts as an early buyer. The specs are competent enough to be a gaming phone, but it’s still not normal to paying this much for something just to game on the go. The physical trigger buttons are a nice touch, and the variety of accessories are diverse enough to suit a lot of different play styles. It’s your call on whether you REALLY want to take your mobile gaming to the ultimate level.
