What we see is that while the OnePlus 7T has several things going for it, the ROG Phone 2 has the phone beat in many areas. The most obvious difference on the spec sheet is that the ROG Phone 2 comes with a 120 Hz refresh rate display with HDR10+ while the OnePlus 7T maxes out at 90 Hz. The Reno 2 and Asus 6Z have the advantage of a fully bezel-less display thanks to the pop-out and flip camera respectively.
The ROG Phone 2 also edges out the OnePlus 7T in terms of features such as triple-layered cooling system, virtual triggers, low-latency touch response and a headphone jack, none of which are present on competing phones, except for the 6Z which does have a headphone jack. A case can be made for the Reno 2Z and OnePlus 7T for their quad and triple-cameras respectively while both the ROG and 6Z have dual-camera setups, but we will need to do a full camera comparison to be sure of it.
Talking about processors, both ROG Phone 2 and OnePlus 7T come with the latest Snapdragon 855+ while the Reno 2Z has the less-powerful Snapdragon 730G. We will put the OnePlus 7T through its paces to see how fast the device actually is.
The battery on the OnePlus 7T is not too shabby at 3,800 mAh with Warp Charge 30T but here again, the ROG Phone 2 has the phone beat with its monster at 6,000 mAh cell with 30W charging capabilities. The Asus 6Z itself has a 5,000 mAh battery while the Reno 2Z has 4,000 mAh cell. Since we haven’t reviewed the OnePlus 7T we can’t draw any final conclusions but it is safe to say that in terms of specs on the sheet, it will get massive competition from the ROG Phone 2. Stay tuned for the full review.
