The ROG 6 PRO has a SECRET Cavity! - TEARDOWN

[@SWISS-1337]

For those that don't know, the cavity in that model is where they store the soul of a dishonourable employee, so when you bent it in half, the spirit escaped. Asus will be super annoyed, because that spirit will go back for revenge now.

The 6d ultimate replaces the cavity with an open portal that you operate through their software. My understanding is that they added more copper In the open chamber and you use the fan to draw more heat out of the phone. Hope that helps!

[@kalebtravers9870]

When are you gonna do the Apple Watch ultra?? I just got mine and am so excited to see how it stands up to you!

[@OscarAlvarado2024]

Moving back up to the top to remove the cameras, we have the itty bitty 5 megapixel macro cameras camera which does not have OIS. The other two are mounted together at the same housing. We have the 50 megapixel camera on the left and the 13 megapixel ultra-wife camera on the right -both of which have smaller footprints than we would normally see in a flagship, and surprisingly, neither of them have any optical image stabilization. We haven't had a phone without OIS in years, and especially not on a flagship that costs $1300. I'm almost more disappointed by the lack of OIS than I am at snapping in half.

[@syedhassaanmujtababokhari6199]

If they reposition the batteries from horizontal to vertical orientation it can help with the structural integrity. Although by the looks of it ROG needs to add a midplate and increase the frame thickness or try a different alloy altogether. For 1300 this surely is possible. If Apple of all companies can offer a stainless steel frame ROG certainly can.

[@SMGJohn]

Then you add weight, for what? You think people who buy gaming phones take them to a construction site??? I kind of understand why Asus CEO said to never listen to consumers. Because it they did their phones would weight 6kg and be powered by a diesel engine.

[@alaaeid8320]

If you have vertical batteries you will not have the space in the middle which is needed for the processor cooling. ASUS knew for sure that the design in this way is going to make the phone easier to bend. However, the reason for this is to align the location of the cooling fan accessory with the processor and since the cooling fan is installed in the middle (best location for weight distribution) they have to make space for the processor to be at the same location where the cooling fan will be installed to get the most benefit out of it so in order to make the needed space while having good battery capacity is to have 2 small batteries instead of one big battery. Another side benefit which will be the distribution of weight when playing in landscape. It is not because of batteries safety somehow, ROG 6 Pro is a gaming phone where you need to focus on performance, high frame rate and graphics while trying to resolve the heat issue which will affect the performance. If you are into gaming and you want to enjoy performance gaming phone then you have to compromise. Therefore, by knowing that the phone is easy to bent because of this, then you know that ASUS know what they are doing, it is just something they needed to do for performance. Yes the bend seems bad and not desirable but we should appreciate that the company is differentiate the design of gaming phone than normal phones, they are trying to get the best design for performance and they have engineered the phone with an outstanding design and internal alignment with the current existing technologies as in future technologies may change.

[@syedhassaanmujtababokhari6199]

@@alaaeid8320 Okay. I'd like to propose another solution. Keep the same battery orientation. Add an aluminium midplate, attach it to the vapour chamber. It'll act like an additional heatsink for the processor and provide additional cooling to the batteries as well. This way the cooling accessory can be used, they design will remain almost as is. The additional battery cooling will extend battery life and help with faster charging speeds since heat is the No 1 enemy of a Battery. For the frame, they can try and use a stronger version of aluminium alloy. The weight remains mostly the same. Result improved strength, better battery and processor performance. Or If they don't want to experiment with a different alloy, they can use a thicker back glass and on the screen. That will also help with the heat and solve the structural problems but not as much as the midplate. Any arguments??

[@SMGJohn]

@@syedhassaanmujtababokhari6199 I have a question, what kind of space age alien technology are you using to add a relatively THICK aluminium plate and then "attach" it to vapour chamber but maintain the same weight to the phone?????? I mean, you do realise that heat has to move somewhere, just slapping on a big freaking aluminium plate wont do anything. I am also curious what is a "stronger version" of aluminium, you do realise this sounds about stupid as it does? If you had said titanium, yeah then sure you could effectively double the strength with titanium plate which will even weight less than aluminium. I am not sure who is interested in a 6000 dollar markup for a titanium version versus the usual 1000 dollar aluminium version. Are you?

[@syedhassaanmujtababokhari6199]

@@SMGJohn Hmm. Seems like you're the kind of person who would buy a sub par product for a premium price just because the people who made it gave some bs reasons for cost cuts. My guy every problem can be fixed with clever engineering. And yes there are different varieties of alloys. For example there's 6000 series aluminium which is inferior to 7000 series. Some smartphones use 6013 and 6063 grade aluminium. Some use 7075 grade as well which is the highest grade used in phones right now. A big example of this is the iPhone 6/6+ Bend gate where apple used 6000 series alloy which is diluted and cheaper to manufacturer and also weaker. For 6s/6s+ they switched to 7000 series alloy. That fixed the issue. Trust me most problems like these can be fixed with clever engineering, and minimal cost deviations. The only reason ROG didn't do this is because their accountants probably would've done a CBA and reached to the conclusion that if this becomes a problem for them (lawsuits) it'd be cheaper to settle the lawsuit than actually fix the problem. And this isn't the fist time a company has made such a decision. If iPhones weren't as dominant, chances are Apple would've kept using the inferior grade alloy and dealt with any issues quietly. Argue that my guy.

​@@arshenio45 rog phone 5 users here, been using the phone for 1.5 year and a half now. Fell a lot of times, but i never noticed any bending. Everything is still tightly sealed and straight. I think the only way for you to bend a phone that way irl, is when you put it in your back pocket and sit on it, which you are not supposed to do to any phone anyway. I'm not saying it's ok for a phone to just completely split in half. But i think people need to realise that the force needed to bend the phone is waaay more than the force it's gonna get just being in your pockets.
