    1. Poco F5
      • Procesador: Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2

    1. Redmi K50 Gaming

      • Procesador: Snapdragon 8 Gen 1
      • Extras: Botones físicos para gaming, refrigeración avanzada
    2. Samsung Galaxy A54

      • Procesador: Exynos 1380


    1. Realme GT Neo 3T

    1. iQOO Neo 7
      • Procesador: MediaTek Dimensity 8200

    SGg Here are a few Android phones under $544 that are known for smooth gaming performance, decent thermals, and capable GPUs:

    1. POCO F4:

      • Chipset: Snapdragon 870 (solid gaming performance)
      • Cooling: LiquidCool Technology 2.0 helps manage heat under heavy load
      • Why It’s Good: The Snapdragon 870 is well-optimized for games like PUBG and CoD Mobile, and the POCO line usually offers great value for money.
    2. Realme GT Neo 2 or GT Neo 3 (if found on sale):

      • Chipset: Snapdragon 870 (GT Neo 2) or Dimensity 8100 (GT Neo 3)

      • Cooling: Both have vapor chamber cooling systems that help reduce throttling

      • Why It’s Good: Realme’s GT series emphasizes performance at a competitive price.

    3. iQOO Neo 6 or Neo 7:

      • Chipset: Snapdragon 870 (Neo 6) or Dimensity 8200 (Neo 7)

      • Cooling: Usually features a large vapor chamber and multi-layer cooling

      • Why It’s Good: iQOO is often gaming-focused, delivering smooth frame rates with minimal overheating.

    4. OnePlus Nord 2T (if you can find it under $544):

      • Chipset: MediaTek Dimensity 1300

      • Cooling: Not as advanced as some gaming-focused phones, but generally does well with moderate gaming

      • Why It’s Good: Balanced performance and OxygenOS runs smoothly, although it might run a bit warmer under heavy load compared to a Snapdragon 870 phone.

    If you can find any of these models (or their equivalents) on sale or used, they should stay within your budget and deliver a reasonably lag-free experience for PUBG and Call of Duty Mobile, thanks to their efficient cooling systems and powerful chipsets. Always check for the specific RAM/storage variant, as more RAM (at least 6GB–8GB) will help with multitasking and gaming stability.

      If you’re a mobile gamer go for ASUS ROG, xaiomi, OnePlus ,ZTE Red magic, MEIZU infinix zero gt for that price

        Lili_Anderson No worries, I’m not using AI for my comments. Everything I write comes from me, with my own thoughts and perspective.

            Have you personally tried any of these phones for gaming? I’d love to hear your experience!

            Lili_Anderson That’s strange, because I didn’t use any AI to write it. I wrote everything myself.
