ASUS Malaysia Flashes Their D with the New ROG Phone 6D Series
At a launch event in KL today, ASUS Malaysia has officially launched the ROG Phone 6D Series, and there’s even a Batman Edition available.
ROG Phone 6D Series
There are three new gaming phones for you to consider now in Malaysia; the ROG Phone 6D, 6D Ultimate, and ROG Phone 6 Batman Edition. Essentially, it’s the same ROG Phone that was launch earlier this year but with some changes inside, most notably the use of the MediaTek Dimensity 9000+ chip, which is where the “D” comes from.
For the Ultimate Edition, it even has a new AeroActive Portal, which works together with the AeroActive Cooler 6, with thermal surface area increasing by nine-fold, thus improving thermal efficiency by 20% and allowing the CPU to run at a consistent performance for marathon gaming sessions.
As for the ROG Phone 6 Batman Edition, it comes with the Batman Aero Case, Bat Signal Projector, Batman Ejector Pin with Gotham City-themed stand, and a storage case made of extended polypropylene (EPP). The phone itself is clad in in the Gotham City Black colour, setting it apart from the other devices in the series.
