Not satisfied with just the ROG Phone 6 and 6 Pro, Asus is back with two new additions to the ROG Phone 6 series — the ROG Phone 6D and the 6D Ultimate. The previous two models boast plenty of eye-catching features for mobile gaming enthusiasts like a 165Hz refresh rate, a Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1, and 18GB of LPDDR5 RAM. But what will these new 6D models bring to the table? Here’s everything you need to know.
The ROG Phone 6D and 6D Ultimate pick up where the Phone 6 and 6 Pro left off, quite literally. There’s not much of a difference between these handsets and their older siblings. However, there are a few notable changes like color, weight, and most importantly the CPU and GPU. Asus also describes the 6D as an additional option when choosing a ROG Phone 6 device. While the company considers the 6D Ultimate to be one tier above the 6 Pro. Let’s go through a quick breakdown of what you can expect from the ROG Phone 6D and 6D Ultimate.
