ROG Phone 6D review & comparison

It's an interesting dynamic. The ROG Phone 6D has literally zero difference with the ROG Phone 6 except for the chipset. However, we only have the ROG Phone 6 Pro with us - but it shouldn't matter.

I really like the way this guy reviews tech. He's down to earth and gets to the point. Fascinating how the last review of 2022 for this channel ends on a gaming phone of all things. Something you'd never imagine in the 2000s.

[@NasiLemakTech]

Technically we do have yet another review coming before Christmas (hopefully) but that'll be considered in next year's "best phones of the year" list instead

[@MrCoffee0996]

Thank you for this comparison. I hope I can see more contents from you for upcoming SD gen 2 phones.

Hello... MediaTek say this ...Multimode Dual SIM Dual Active - continuing dual SIM leadership with simultaneously active 5G cellular connections.. Have you tested the phone to see if it is DSDA by calling sim 2 from sim 1

[@buck_tv8936]

Reasonable comparison! Thank you

[@aracknido]

The 6D is 500€ cheaper in Spain. So even though the comparison puts 6D at a disadvantage, the price kind of makes up for it. I just got the 6D and I am pretty sure I won't see any problems playing games.

[@NasiLemakTech]

Can't argue with that huge price gap. Enjoy the device!

[@LoveAndPeace2u]

Heii there. Im about to buy the 6D for the same reason. Its cheaper and i dont think it will make any troubles. But the main reason i buy it is to play Wild Rift. But i couldnt find any answer if it will be possible to play Wild Rift with 120 fps. So since its a gaming Phone i wanted to ask u if u know if u can play Wild Rift with 120fps. The Asus Rog 6 could but the 7 cant as far as i found out. Maybe u can help me since u allready got it. Thanks a lot in advance and much love ❤

[@sainturiel7459]

What matters in gaming is 3d graphics test which is more stable on 6d than 6 pro

[@sam8424]

Dimensity processor really awesome these days 🔥

[@gUdUOficial]

então não é com as pessoas aqui do brasil dizendo que o rog 6 D é mais frio que o rog 6 ou a versao pro, então os caras devem estar equivocados ou mentindo né... ja que voce mostrou que a versao rog 6 D é menor em benckmarks e mais quente que com snapdragon... e isso ainda se mantem nos games???

@@NasiLemakTech I have an s22 ultra! Is it smart to switch to a rog 6d or rog pro, or should I stick with the s22 ultra .. What's your opinion? Thanks !

[@NasiLemakTech]

Your situation is similar to mine. I have the S22 Ultra but I ended up using the ROG Phone 6 Pro as my dedicated gaming phone. So I use two phones. If you have to pick one, I'd say it depends on your personal preference. Do you need all the special features from Samsung? If not, then you can try out the ROG Phone 6 Pro.

[@Forjadao]

@@NasiLemakTech thanks brother !

[@Forjadao]

@@NasiLemakTech I'm Brazilian, it took a lot of work but I understood your video! You are very good at what you do! I have a big doubt hehe! I really like Samsung, I like the beautiful screen and the camera, but I'm curious and would like to have a gamer smartphone! But I'm afraid I don't like it. I really liked the rog phone 6d ultimate, but from what I saw the rog phone 6 pro is better, right? So I don't know if I keep my s22 ultra, what's your opinion? If I get the rog phone will I be disappointed with something? Screen ? Camera? Something like ?

[@achillesrobencostanos7923]

Please compare the blackshark 5 pro and rog 6d and 6 pro

I did the benchmarks actually. I decided not to include as the Black Shark 5 Pro falls far behind both the ROG Phone 6 and 6D.

A friend told me ROG 6 runs CODM at 120FPS, is that right?

[@NasiLemakTech]

No such thing. 90fps on multiplayer mode and that's the maximum. Edit: After numerous updates since I initially tested it, we do have 120fps now. It's still called "ULTRA" but yes, it does run at 120fps now.

[@ManoHefesto]

@@NasiLemakTech thanks for the information

[@chazzzz7308]

Since rog 6d when using the cooler become more better, Aren't that means rog6d ultimate run more efficiently than rog 6d because ultimate had that flip cooler?or am i wrong? because I wanted to but rog 6 phone and i don't know what to choose between 6d ult or 6pro

[@NasiLemakTech]

Ah, I get what you mean. Those are two different tests already. The 6D Ultimate only opens up when the cooler is attached. So it ultimately depends on you - do you want to bring the cooler along with you every time? Either way, the efficiency of the Dimensity 9000+ is still not as good - with or without the cooler.

Compared to?

[@user-oz1nq2ju8q]

Why used the base version of 6d for comparison and not the ultimate one? Of course there's huge difference in base versions vs pro versions. Try 6d ultimate vs 6 pro or 6d vs rog 6 (base version)

[@NasiLemakTech]

There is no difference.

[@sainturiel7459]

​@@NasiLemakTechwait if there's no difference then why give so much disadvantages if you buy a rog phone 6D.

[@user-oz1nq2ju8q]

HAHAHA really? No difference? What do you call the Aero active portal that the ultimate version have? As well as the big difference between the Ram of Ultimate vs the base version of 6d? Both difference will give a huge advantage for the performance. The main point here is the counter part you should compare the advance version for the both phones rather than the base version vs the advance version. It should be, rog 6 vs rog6d or rog 6 pro vs rog 6d ultimate.

[@LordShadowfie]

The issue with the 6D Dimensity is that it heats up quickly, but it is significantly more durable compared to Snapdragon. I haven't encountered any deadboot issues with the 6D, unlike Snapdragon users who experience deadboot problems and still claim that Snapdragon is better. Yes, they are correct, but there are always issues

[@NasiLemakTech]

Uhhhh I never heard anyone having issues with the ROG Phone 6 and 7 with Snapdragon

[@HauRPW]

performance rog 6 is better, but durability i think rog 6d is much better than rog 6, im always check the 2 forum zentalk asus & xda forum, i haven't encountered any deadboot issues with the rog 6d, but not all users experience deadboot issue for rog 6 but again so many user experiencing camera & fingerprint problem then if you report to asus customers service online then said go to asus service center near you to fix your problem, the problem is the rog 6 motherboard have a overheating issue like old rog phone issue way back back since rog 1 2 3 5 series.
