ASUS has officially launched and has announced the price of the latest generation of their gaming phone, the ROG Phone 6, in the Philippines today. The overpowered gaming phone will come in two variants: the vanilla ROG Phone 6, and the ROG Phone 6 Pro that we recently reviewed.
Specs between the two devices are almost identical, with the main differences between the two phones being RAM, storage, and the complexity of the ROG Vision display on the back. The vanilla ROG Phone 6 has a simple LED matrix at the back, while the ROG Phone 6 Pro has a bigger, brighter, and far more customizable OLED strip at the back, though it only comes in one color – Glacial White.
Accompanying the launch of the ROG Phone 6 and ROG Phone 6 Pro will be a new crop of accessories, including the revamped AeroActive Cooler as well as the Kunai Gamepad. Unfortunately, ASUS won’t be bundling the cooler with each purchase of the phone, as it’s grown complex enough to warrant a separate purchase at least after the pre-order period is finished.
