The next king of gaming smartphones could arrive in the form of the ROG Phone 6. We say “king” because it will likely have the best performance in the category thanks to the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC which offers 10% more performance than previous gaming phones with SD8 Gen 1. Additionally, the new SoC is also 30% more power efficient and does not heat up like its predecessor. ASUS has confirmed that the ASUS ROG Phone 6 will hit the market on July 5. The company continues to build the hype for the upcoming product. Today it announced that the phone would be splash resistant and billed it as the “world’s first IPX4 gaming phone“.

Key Features of ASUS ROG Phone 6
Among the previously confirmed features of the ROG Phone, we also have an AMOLED display with a refresh rate of 165Hz. It will be one of the few devices with this amazing refresh rate. In fact, most smartphone OEMs are comfortable with 120Hz refresh rate, and only a few are exploring 144Hz. So ASUS ROG Phone 6 will comfortably stay in the position for a long time. The phone will also bring improved cooling to ensure performance and prevent throttling. The device will bring a triple camera setup, and there’s a small secondary display on the back.
According to the TENAA listing, the phone has a diagonal of 6.78 inches with a biometric scanner underneath. The device will have up to 18GB of RAM and the storage can go up to 1TB. The main camera is a 64 MP shooter, while the selfie snapper is a 12 MP unit. The phone has a massive 6,000mAh battery that will charge quickly with 65W charging. The device passed Geekbench a few days ago, confirming that a 16GB variant is also on the way. The phone runs Android 12 which is hardly a surprise at the moment.
ASUS will likely continue building the hype in the coming days.
