    I don’t understand how “gamer style” is a thing. If you’re old enough to remember Winamp skins from the early 2000s, that’s what it is plus a slew of RGB.

      I don’t understand how “gamer style” is a thing.

      Like, in general? Lots of non-functional molded plastic angular stuff with unnecessary holes, crevices, lights, and styling slapped on stuff. Let me do a quick search for “gamer mouse”.

      searches

      Yeah. That’s a nice example.

      The ROG Phone itself isn’t a particularly over-the-top example of that, but I don’t really want the styling.

      It isn’t a deal-breaker, just that I’d rather not have it; for me it was a negative.

      I am, and I agree that many of those did have similar over-the-top styling…and I don’t want to buy physical hardware that looks like it.

      I generally just want understated hardware without a lot of styling on it on all my computer hardware. I’m sure that there are people who do want something that looks more like the above, and that’s fine, but it’s not an aesthetic that I personally much like.
