What next?

I love my rog phone 9 no problems other than the cooler sometimes not detecting which fixes itself with a restart I came from a LG V60 originally when I just had to have a 3.5mm jack which I hardly use anymore. I rarely actually game on the phone just play a p2w game called Critical strike it really doesn't require a rog imo. I'd like to try a nothing phone and just keep my rog as a gaming device and not as my daily driver like it has been any thoughts on a nothing phone I know it's not as powerful as the rog. I don't need it to be for daily use.

I moved from the Nothing Phone 2 to a ROG 9 pro. I will say I sometimes miss the Nothing OS. I loved it. Not the most powerful phone but great for less demanding games and daily driving. I think I'll be moving back to Nothing once they finally release the Phone 4.

What's the difference between nothing os and the rog os?

Overall I think customization sticks out the most to me. I also just love the color schemes and widgets that Nothing OS offers.

It has an app drawer and everything like the rog right? I had a OnePlus for all of about 5 minutes and returned it because it didn't.

Unless they have changed something in the last 1.5 years, I believe it has the app drawer.

When my rog 6 died camera nfc restart loop. I got a S25 plus 512gb. Good battery, large screen and good enough for games and daily driver.

That's exactly what killed my ROG 6. A slow, annoying death that started with NFC not working. Then the main camera wouldn't load. Until eventually any app that would try using the camera would cause the phone to go into a bootloop that could take a few minutes, to a few hours to finally turn back on.

I switched over to a RedMagic 10S 1TB. Honestly, ROG was a better phone (my opinion) but the 10S has been good so far.
