The huge surge in mobile gaming has meant that the suitability for playing games is one of the key factors that people now consider when looking for a new mobile device. By looking at three of the best gaming phones on the market in 2021, we can see how they can help us to enjoy playing games even more.

Razer Phone 2
The launch of the Razer Phone in 2017 added a new name to the gaming phone market, while they brought out an enhanced model a year later. The Razer Phone 2 is classed as being a phone aimed mainly at gamers, but it is also versatile enough to be used for general purposes.
Among the main features that help it to appeal to gamers is the big screen, with a bright 120Hz display that brings vividness to the games. The phone also has powerful speakers that add plenty of extra atmosphere to any gaming experience. To top it off, the second generation is IP67 water-resistant too.

In terms of in-browser games, the Genesis Casino website confirms that visitors can simply navigate to their site on any browser, for example. This means that their range of slots, like Book of Dead and Starburst, and table games, can be played using any iOS or Android device. The same should apply to all other sites with in-browser games and would be handled well by the Razer 2 according to customer reviews.

The downsides to this phone include fairly poor battery life and relatively low-quality camera images. Overall, it is a solid choice for anyone whose main concern is gaming on the go, but those drawbacks might be enough to put some people off it. Virtually any games in the Google Play Store should work perfectly on here.

iPhone 12

Apple fans don’t need to switch to Android to get an excellent gaming experience, but they may like to consider moving over to the iPhone 12 for the best results. This model has a 6.1-inch screen with 1170 x 2532 resolution.

The CPU is an Apple A14 Bionic and it provides 4GB of RAM. These specs mean that it isn’t as powerful as some of the Android gaming models, but it does provide a smooth performance with better battery life than many of the Android phones aimed at gamers. Of course, there is some variation between the mobile games found on the App Store and those in the Google Play Store. So, it makes sense to see whether your favourites are available on both formats before making a final decision.

Asus ROG Phone 3

Gamers who are comfortable splashing out a premium price for a top-notch model might be interested in this Asus ROG phone with a 6.59-inch screen and a Snapdragon 865 Plus CPU. Of particular use for gamers are the advanced case cooling and dedicated gaming buttons that move it onto the next level.

Anyone who enjoys using an Asus ROG gaming laptop may find that this phone is a natural progression for them. The updates on the latest model have added 5G capability and an improved camera. 16GB of RAM and a refresh rate of 144Hz mean that even the most complex, advanced games shouldn’t cause it to slow down.

There are few negative points with this powerful phone, although some users might be disappointed with the rather limited battery life. It can also get pretty warm during an intense gaming session, despite the cooling system.

If you are serious about gaming wherever you go, any of these models we have looked at will do a great job for you. It is just a question of finding one that suits you perfectly.
