Up front, the duo gets a 12-megapixel camera.
Other key features include 5G, 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth v5.2, and NFC. We also have two USB-C ports, as the secondary port can be used to connect cooling accessories. Accessories include AeroActive Cooler, an integrated thermoelectric AI cooling system. There is also a ROG Kunai 3 Gamepad. Lastly, just like older ROG Phones, the new generation Asus ROG Phone 6 series comes with ultrasonic sensors for AirTrigger 6 to deliver a gamepad-like experience on the smartphone.
