The Asus ROG Phone 6 promises significant gaming enhancements over its predecessor. The design of the phone has been modified with a more prominent camera bump and an additional LED element on the rear panel. The performance in gaming is exceptional. The phone’s display is sufficiently quick to provide gamers a competitive edge, and the new Aeroactive Cooler accessory is necessary to maximise the phone’s performance. Although the absence of Android 12 is irritating, Asus has given many software overlays as a workaround.
