MANILA, Philippines – The ROG Phone 6, the 2022 edition of ROG’s gaming phone, was officially launched on July 23. It will come in 2 models: the base Cell phone 6 and the Phone 6 Pro.

The base Telephone 6 will come in two variants, one with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage, and another with 16GB RAM MEMORY and 512GB storage. The 12GB RAM variant is priced at P47, 995 while the 16GB RAM variant is priced at P54, 995. Both are expected to arrive at the end of August 2022.

The pro version, the Phone 6 Pro, which has 18GB RAM and 512GB storage is priced at P64, 995, and will be arriving in “mid September. ”

Pre-orders run from July 23 to August 31, 2022. The 16GB RAM variant of the base Phone 6, and the Mobile phone 6 Pro will come with an Aero Active Cooler six accessory that’s worth P4, 995.

All the Phone 6 models will come with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 mobile platform, the chipmaker’s latest chipset. These are the first phones to arrive in the Philippines with the said chipset. Manufacturer estimates say the new chipset has a 15% more powerful CPU and 50% stronger GPU than the Snapdragon 888 found in last year’s ROG Phone 5.

It also boasts a screen with a touch-sampling rate of 720Hz, among the fastest in the market right now, a spec which determines responsiveness to touch commands.

Additionally, it features an improved GameCool six cooling system, with 30% larger cooling chambers, and bigger graphite sheets for dissipating heat. Non-physical ultrasonic triggers called AirTrigger6 on the shoulders are retained that present alternative controlling options for some games such as first-person shooters.

For audio, the particular phones tout a GameFX stereo system, made in collaboration with digital audio solutions provider Dirac. Unlike many flagship phones nowadays, the Phone 6 will still come with a 3. 5mm audio jack.
