Hey guys we are you looking for the perfect device for the mobile gamer in your life. Well you've come to the right place, we’ve put together a list of 2019 best smartphones for gaming but first let's talk a little bit about. The highlights and trends we saw this year one trend we've seen actually is more gaming phones coming out in the first place a couple of years ago this was a totally niche product but now more and more manufacturers are making phones aimed at the gamer crowd it's a smart idea as this market is definitely growing.
For example 2019 saw the largest mobile game launch to date in Call of Duty mobile which had over a 100 million downloads in its first week alone it doesn't look like it's slowing down either announcements for heavy hitting titles like path of Exile mobile diablo immortal and League of Legends mobile have me pretty excited about what the next year will bring and beyond that game streaming services like Google stadia and Microsoft's project X cloud are something to look out for in the future even if they're rough around the edges right now.
Let's go back to mobile gaming hardware itself we've seen more and more phones coming out with dedicated modes optimized performance for your games many also have screens with high refresh rates that can support higher frame rates in game as well as low touch latency for extra responsiveness so with all that said let's get into the best gaming phones of 2019 in no particular order but stick around till the end for our editor's choice here we go
1. Apple iPhone 11
So the iPhone may not be what comes to your mind when you think gaming but it's actually a really capable device. It has apples super powerful hardware a large low latency screen and good battery life. The iPhone 11 gets you the same gaming performance as the higher chair model sat a lower price, so it turns its spot on this list sure it is missing some of the bells and whistles of a more gaming centric phone and is LCD display has a normal refresh rate. You get a huge selection of games on the Apple App Store including some exclusive titles.
2. One plus 7T
One plus 7T like the iPhone 11 the one plus 70 isn't a dedicated gaming phone but it has certain features that make it really well-suited for this purpose. It packs the latest Snapdragon 855 plus chipset and it does a good job in handling its thermals to prevent throttling on top of that. It brings an excellent AMOLED display with a fast 90Hertz refresh rate that doesn't mean you should expect 90 FPS for your games.
3. Xiaomi black shark 2 and 2 pro
Someone who wants a normal but looking a device with great gaming performance next on the list the Xiaomi black shark 2 and 2 pro. The black shark 2 is a foam dedicated to gaming both in aesthetics and in performance. You get a no lie display with low touch latency and great battery life for gaming. With the optional game pads feels good too and can give you the edge over your opponents there, also a pro version which upgrades to a newer snapdragon 855 plus chipset and gives you increased RAM and storage but otherwise it's the same phone as far as downsize go the screen only has a 60 Hertz refresh rate and there's no 3.5 millimeter jack for headphones.
4. The Nubia red magic 3 and 3s
The Nubia red magic 3 and 3s is a dedicated gaming phone and brings that cool gamer aesthetic. You get excellent battery life and the AMOLED screen has a 90 Hertz refresh rate. On top of that the phone is really able to cut down on thermal throttling thanks to was built-in fan you can use shoulder triggers as extra input for your games specially handy for shooters. There are separate controller accessories available too and there is a more advanced version the red magic 3s which brings an upgraded Snapdragon 855+ chipset. We did find fault with the display which doesn't get very bright and there's no option to switch from 90 Hz to 60Hz. The single camera is lackluster and the software has some strange translations to English but you still get a great gaming experience.
5. Asus ROG phone
Asus ROG phone takes the crown here it has the industry's only a 120 Hz display, which is quite responsive thanks to a slow touch latency. The screen is quite bright sound is great as well although all of the phones on this list have stereo speakers the ones on the ROG are some of the best around like the Red Magic 3 this phone has shoulder triggers you can use for gaming but these air triggers give you extra functionality by recognizing swipes as well. Tapping battery life is excellent thanks to the 6,000 mAh power pack and both peak and sustained performance are the best. We've tested yet from an Android phone especially if you attach cooling fan there is also support for a wide variety of optional accessories including several types of ROG’s and they're very capable gamepad.
