I’m currently reviewing the Asus ROG Phone 7 Ultimate but for much of this year, I’ve been using its predecessor, the firm’s ROG Phone 6D Ultimate gaming smartphone.
Until the new unit came along, 6D Ultimate was the best gaming smartphone. And it remains the only ROG phone to feature the AeroActive Portal.
The key difference between the two 6D models and the original ROG Phone 6 and 6 Pro is they use the Mediatek Dimensity 9000+ chipset instead of the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC. They also use the ARM Mali-G710 GPU graphics chip rather than the Qualcomm Adreno 730 found in the 6 and 6 Pro.
