Now, reliable tipster @evleaks has revealed that the ROG Phone 6 series will debut with a specially made controller making it more convenient to game on smartphones.

The renders reveal that the controller has an Xbox-style button and trigger placement and the overall design is identical to the ASUS ROG Kunai 3 controller. Like the Kunai 3 gamepad, the new controller is also expected to have two connectivity modes – Bluetooth and the included bumper case. The controller will come with a pair of additional grips for ease of use in the Bluetooth mode. Additionally, it appears that it will come in two color options – White and Black.

A previous report revealed that Asus is also planning on launching a new snap-on cooling fan accessory called the AeroActive Cooler 6. It will be interesting to see if the gamepad and the cooling fan could be used together and if it would be practical as a hand-held gaming device due to the weight factor.

Under the hood, the device will house the latest Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset paired with up to 18 GB of RAM and up to 512 GB of built-in storage. Other than that, it will run on Android 12-based ROG UI and will pack a 6,000mAh dual-cell battery with 65W fast charging support. It is also confirmed to offer IPX4 water resistance.
