To know more about the ROG Phone 6, allow me to break down the specifications of the device starting with the chipset, CPU, and GPU.

This is a 5G chipset that is built on TSMC 4nm process node, features an Octa-core CPU with a speed clocked at 3.19GHz, and the CPU is paired with the Adreno 730 GPU.

The chipset inside the ROG Phone 6 has a peak download speed of about 10Gbps and a peak upload speed of about 5Gbps. It features fast UFS 3.1 storage and LPDDR5 RAM technology. The chipset is not only fast but also power efficient. The ROG Phone 6 is accompanied by an external cooling system to keep the device’s temperature down.

With the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chip onboard the ROG Phone 6, you can play games for a long time without issues. The display is very fast (more on this when we get to the display features) and the chipset can perform for a long time without having to drop frame rates or lagging.
