Upon laying hands on the ROG Phone 6, I was immediately captivated by its robust and gaming-centric design. The device comes in two basic colors, black and white, with the version in my hands being the sleek white variant, exuding a dynamic vibe. The back panel features sharp edges and meticulously placed details, delivering a fresh sensation and evoking strong associations with the trending Cyberpunk style.

ASUS introduces freshness to the ROG Phone 6 with the integrated LED-lit logo, known as Aura RGB Lighting. Moreover, glancing upward reveals the illuminated inscription 'DARE TO PLAY', exuding an incredibly 'gaming' vibe. What's more, users can customize the colors to match their personal style. Overall, the back panel of the ROG Phone 6 is exceptionally stylish, offering an indescribable allure and a strong gaming and tech presence when held.

Despite donning a highly sophisticated attire, the ROG Phone 6 also boasts relatively high durability with its metal frame and softly rounded edges, providing a solid grip for everyday use or gaming. Additionally, the rear panel of the device is crafted from frosted glass, adding a touch of elegance while minimizing sweat and fingerprint smudges during prolonged gaming sessions.

A standout feature of the ROG Phone 6's back is the neatly arranged camera cluster within a black frame, enhancing the overall design's sleekness.

Moreover, the placement of the connectivity ports and buttons on the ROG Phone 6 remains unchanged, allowing users to adapt quickly. You can take a look at some images below for the most accurate depiction!

Turning to the front, the ROG Phone 6 features a 6.78-inch AMOLED display with Full HD+ resolution (2,448 x 1,080 pixels). The design of the ROG Phone 6's display remains largely unchanged from its predecessor, with relatively thin bezels, offering an excellent entertainment and movie-watching experience.

Moreover, the ROG Phone 6's display is equipped with a refresh rate of up to 165 Hz, making gaming experiences smooth with each frame and movement. Additionally, the ROG Phone 6 allows users to customize the display refresh rate in increments such as 60 Hz, 90 Hz, 120 Hz, and 144 Hz according to individual preferences.

The ROG Phone 6 boasts a powerful configuration with the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1.

Before diving into details, let's summarize the specifications of the ROG Phone 6 for reference.

• Display: 6.78 inches, AMOLED panel, Full HD+ resolution (2,448 x 1,080 pixels), 165 Hz refresh rate.
• Rear Camera: 50 MP + 13 MP + 5 MP.
• Front Camera: 12 MP.
• CPU: Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1.
• RAM: 12 GB and 16 GB.
• Internal Storage: 256 GB and 512 GB.
• Battery: 6,000 mAh, supports Quick Charge 5.0 fast charging technology.

With a flagship gaming phone like the ROG Phone 6, it's no surprise to see it equipped with the most powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chip to date. This is an enhanced version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 in terms of performance and temperature, boasting 8 cores built on the advanced 4nm process and clock speeds up to 3.0 GHz. As a result, the ROG Phone 6 delivers incredibly strong performance, effortlessly handling popular games like Arena of Valor, PUBG Mobile, and even Genshin Impact.

However, those who have experienced the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 may have encountered some issues with rapid temperature increase. Although the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 is said to have improvements, there is still some hesitation. Recognizing this, ASUS has equipped the ROG Phone 6 with a new cooling system called ROG Gamecool 6, featuring a surface area 80% - 85% larger than its predecessor, combined with the use of thermal paste to quickly dissipate heat generated by the chip, ensuring stable operation over extended periods and maximizing performance.

In addition, the ROG Phone 6 is equipped with 8 GB or 12 GB of LDDR5 RAM, ensuring smooth multitasking and app switching, while minimizing lag to the maximum. Furthermore, the device comes in two internal storage variants: 256 GB and up to 512 GB, allowing users to multitask and store numerous games and apps.

A major highlight of the ROG Phone 6 is its 6,000 mAh battery, providing enough power for users to use for 1 - 2 days with basic tasks such as calling, texting, web browsing, movie watching, or playing some games. However, intensive gaming may consume more energy.

Moreover, the ROG Phone 6 comes with various accessories to enhance the gaming experience, such as the AeroActive Cooler 6 and the ROG Kunai 3 gaming controller with versatile customization options.

Conclusion

The ROG Phone 6 is a gaming phone that is currently leading the market with its tech-savvy design, gaming-centric features, high refresh rate display of up to 165 Hz, and top-notch performance.
