Our Take
On the design front, Lenovo looks like a well-designed phone. It comes with a pop-up selfie camera that can be helpful during live streaming sessions. Whereas Asus ROG Phone 3 comes with dual touch sensors — located on the long edges of the ROG Phone 3 allowing any in-game action for a console-like experience. Both the phones come with a similar display having a 144Hz refresh rate with a 240Hz touch sampling rate. The smartphones are also powered by Snapdragon 865+ mobile platforms whereas the camera module on the Asus looks pretty much better than Lenovo Legion Duel. ROG Phone is the best option for those who want all the gaming features along with photography features. But the side-mounted front camera might be beneficial for the gamers for live-streaming gaming sessions.
