The Asus ROG Phone 6 is a gaming phone with a 6.8 inch, 165 Hz OLED display, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor, support for up to 18GB of RAM, and plenty of other premium features including RGB lighting on the back.
Asus announced the phone in July, but it looks like the company isn’t done with the ROG Phone 6 series yet, because the company has scheduled an event for next month when we’re expecting to meet the ROG Phone 6D, which will be powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 9000 processor instead of as Qualcomm Snapdragon chip. Wondering what the new phone looks like? According to Evan Blass, almost exactly the same as the Snapdragon model.
Here’s a roundup of recent tech news from around the web.
