Samsung Galaxy S24+ vs. Asus ROG Phone 8: A gaming phone tries to go mainstream

Talk about a tale of two manufacturers. Samsung makes a wide range of phones that largely cater to the broadest markets possible, while the last couple of years have seen Asus garner somewhat of an enthusiast following for its few, thoughtfully engineered devices. Those points ring true with the Galaxy S24+ and ROG Phone 8, with the former delivering possibly the best balance of form factor and usability, and the latter charging ahead with borderline-ludicrous performance specs.
