I dont get it tho because on the Asus site you can order it now but on Amazon you have to wait till the 16th for shipping. That'd be messed up if Asus let's you order now and doesn't ship till the 16th without any indication.
If you're in the US and bought anything but a unit intended for sale and use in the US, at minimum your reception is going to suffer a lot. 9/14 4G bands and 4/5 5G bands present on Version A (for USA market) are omitted from both Global and China versions of this phone.
There also might be some significant software-side differences, assuming this site I've never heard of, but found in a Google search, is accurate. Do you want the Google Play Store? Ability to use a third-party launcher? AeroActive Cooler accessory included in the box? US version would have those; Tencent edition allegedly doesn't.
And of course, a Tencent edition device likely doesn't have warranty coverage in the US. So, y'know, you get what you pay for in the end.
Well i ordered this case :
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08ZNG83CS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_XSF273QR10SQT8KT85PR
But I haven't gotten it yet, it checks all your boxes I think.
However I don't own the fan, I use a black shark fan. Much better than the original.
It's a bit pricey though, if youe willing to let go the fan requirement, I have 2 Imak cases that are super awesome and durable.

This has been the only one I can actually recommend, I tried a lot of different protectors and this is the one I recommend for some reason in black border screen protectors it's not glued all around the the notification light so more often than not dust will get in there and run the look. the reason I choose these clear ones is because the protector doesn't cover the notification light and front camera, but you will have to be careful on the edges since if you don't install it right it'll look crooked.

Finally. It's been a long wait. Looks like it releases on the 16th. I place my order already through Amazon. Very happy with the price for the 16GB model.. Here's the Amazon store link if needed https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08KH2YW3D/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_yh2EFbZ2MJMDK
Seriously, does anyone have a solution for this? You don't realize how badly you depend on these reminders until you don't have them any more. Here is what I have tried so far:
Disabling battery optimization (which was already in place before)
Changed battery usage to Unrestricted for the app
disabled Adaptive Battery which is suppose to limit battery usage for infrequently used apps (never had to before)
Auto Start manager: made sure that the app had a check mark by it allowing it to auto start
​
re-downloaded the app form the store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ToDoReminder.gen&gl=US
Even tried completely different reminder apps including google's own Tasks which still doesn't work. This is what clued me in that this is beyond poor A12 support for my preferred app.
This is the type of crap that makes me miss iOS. The default reminder app on it is fantastic and it never gives you crap like this. 🙄
tbh i didn't want the cooler for performance. i just needed to plug in the headphones while charging. using both the usb ports is really uncomfortable while playing. the cooler connects to your phone and provides both charging and aux ports on the side.
but i purchased this so im all set: https://www.flipkart.com/gvaas-black-2-in-1-usb-type-c-aux-charger-3-5mm-audio-headphone-jack-charging-cable-adapter-splitter-converter-type-c-smartphones-laptop-phone/p/itm5beee80ccd323?pid=ACCFBQYSFMTKSUY9&lid=LSTACCFBQYSFMTKSUY9HWBFCE
I directly contacted I.D mobile via live chat who is also Three mobile aswell, they said the ROG phone 3 is compatible with VOLTE and WOWIFI i checked this website and it says its compatible on EE but im not sure about volte or vowifi for you https://www.kimovil.com/en/where-to-buy-asus-rog-phone-3-cn
I don't know much about power output stuff. One of the little bricks i use is this one. It's old too, almost 4 years with me now.
Anker PowerCore 10000 Portable Charger, One of The Smallest and Lightest 10000mAh Power Bank, Ultra-Compact Battery Pack, High-Speed Charging Technology Phone Charger for iPhone, Samsung and More. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0194WDVHI/ref=cm_sw_r_sm_apa_glt_fabc_8R7BNHZJ2KFEGX9X6WWJ
There's not much information I can find on the output of the brick. But i manage to power the fan, and bypass charge the phone without losing charge on the phone. So after an hour of gaming with bypass charging, the battery level of the phone stays the same. I'm guessing the fan does not use as much power.
Here is the case I have and I have dropped it multiple times on the concrete and the phone still looks like I just took it out of the box:

I bought this knock off brand that I never heard of and they work like a champ.

No idea how to fix it on bluetooth BUT.
Using an usb cable gets rid of lag.
You can get really short USB-A to USB-C cables on Amazon under 10 bucks.
This is what I use. for $7.99

I'm using this case
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08FX55SNQ/
Haven't found a good screen protector yet. Bought a tempered glass one, but I kept getting bubble or a dust spec creating a bubble under it.
Did another test using the case https://www.amazon.com/MME-Trigger-Compatible-Protection-Protector/dp/B08H842GKX
Right side of phone was cool. Left side of case near airtrigger and middle was warm but comfortable. With cooler and case 39-41c. With case on but no cooler it was around 46c and was a little getting close to too warm to be comfortable but was not hot like without case.
So not using the cooler even with a case in it didn't throttle and 46c is hot but not bad for computer internals...
So bottom line the Xiaomi cooler is great but unless you don't use a case you probably don't need is as the phone doesn't appear to be getting hot enough to throttle but just too hot to hold.
FYI you can get the Xiaomi cooler off Aliexpress for like $22 with free shipping.
You might be right, the box it came in was pretty beat up since it also shipped with a book in a packaging envelope. Odd though, I've never had issues with Anker products before.
I did find this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08CHGY251/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A1CJZGKJ7Z6USM&psc=1 It explicitly states it works with the ROG 3 but there's no reviews. Still, I can always return it like I will with the Anker cable if there's any issues.
Check out this app. It seems to have fixed it for me:

I bought this protector which I expected to be cheap and shite. Watching it go one was enough to change my mind, it was smooth, it fits great, and it feels sturdy. Admittedly I haven't tested its main purpose yet but hopefully I never need to

Beware of getting scratches on your back camera. Most of the cases don't protect it so I advise you to find the cases which can protect your camera as well as the body. I've bought this case and it doesn't hide the cool stuffs and protects the camera as well.
