ASUS is all set to unveil the ROG Phone 6 series on July 5 in Taiwan, China, and the US. It will be one of the first smartphones to feature the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset. Ahead of the launch, two variants of the ROG Phone 6 have surfaced in the database of China’s 3C certification platform (via).
At the beginning of this year, tipster Paras Guglani had evidence of ASUS developing firmware for the ROG Phone 6 series. It was found that the Taiwanese brand is working on six models, such as the ASUS AI2201_A, AI2201_B, AI2201_C, AI2201_D, AI2201_E, and AI2201_F. The tipster mentioned that the AI2201_B and AI2201_D variants could be heading to India. The former could be called the ROG Phone 6 Pro, whereas the latter could be the ROG Phone 6 Ultimate.
Coming back to the 3C certification, the two variants of the ROG Phone 6 that have been approved include AI2201_A and AI2201_B. The 3C listing reveals that a 65W charger will accompany both devices.
To recall, the ROG Phone 5 series and the ROG Phone 5s lineup, which debuted in 2021, carry support for 65W fast charging. So, it looks like the ROG Phone 6 line may not be better at charging than its previous generation.
ASUS has already confirmed that the ROG Phone 6 series’ display will carry support for a 165Hz refresh rate. The Taiwanese manufacturer is yet to confirm the other details of the lineup. The alleged 2D renders of the ROG Phone 6 / 6 Pro that appeared at the beginning of this year revealed that these may arrive with some design improvements. It appears that the A2201_A and A2201_B models will soon appear in TENAA’s database with images and specifications in the next few days.
