The gaming smartphone market lacks a lot of competitors due to few gaming devices, but this doesn’t mean that the competition is dead. This device will go head-to-head with the likes of the Black Shark 5 series. Competition in the gaming smartphone industry is a tussle for better performance and a more aggressive look. Let’s see what the new gaming smartphone from ASUS ROG has to offer.

ASUS ROG Phone 6 series specifications and features

This series comprises two devices, a non-Pro model and a Pro model. Both devices come with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+Gen 1 processor. The difference between them is in RAM capacity and the AMOLED rear display. Here are the specifications of the ROG Phone 6:

• Screen: 6.78-inch AMOLED with 165Hz refresh rate.
• Processor: Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor. 
• Storage: 8GB/128GB, 12GB/128GB, 12GB/256GB, and 16GB/512GB.
• Main Camera: Triple setup with a 50MP main camera, 13MP ultra-wide camera, and a 5MP macro camera.
• Front Camera: 12MP front-facing camera.
• Battery: 6000mAh battery with 65W fast charge.
• Operating System: ROG UI, Zen UI on Android 12.

The specifications of the ROG Phone 6 Pro receive some improvement in storage. It bumps up the storage capacity to 18GB/512GB which will run more daunting games and tasks smoother than its non-Pro sibling. 

Another change is in the RGB display at the back of these devices. The non-Pro model comes with a non-customizable illuminated RGB logo on its back. For the Pro model, that display becomes a 2-inch OLED panel, which is customizable.
