‘Gaming Phones’ is relatively a new term for the mobile industry. However, this category is picking up the pace now and companies are keen to invest in gaming phones. It all started with the launch of the original Razer Phone which claimed to be the gaming phone and it definitely was the one. The original Razer Phone was a success that’s why the company decided to launch Razer Phone 2. Anyhow, you can expect a gaming phone from a company known for producing top-notch gaming accessories.
