ASUS ROG Phone 3 5G with 6.59-inch FHD+ 144Hz AMOLED display, Snapdragon 865 Plus, up to 16GB RAM, 6000mAh battery gets certified


After several rumors ASUS ROG Phone 3 with the model number ASUS_I003DD has been certified by TENAA in China revealing the image and complete specifications of the phone. This also comes with 5G support, so it should be the first 5G phone from ASUS. It shows a no-notch design since it has a front camera in the top right corner bezel and a horizontal rear camera arrangement, similar to the predecessor.

The TENAA listing and AnTuTu reveals 3.091GHz processor, which should be the upcoming Snapdragon 865 Plus (final name not confirmed yet), an overclocked version compared to Snapdragon 865 that is clocked 2.84GHz and up to 16GB of RAM. TENAA reveals a 6.59-inch FHD+ AMOLED display, but AnTuTu listing says that it might feature 144Hz refresh rate screen compared to 120Hz screen in the predecessor. It has scored 646310 points placing it on the top, better than the OPPO Find X2 Pro and the Mi 10 Pro that have a score of 6 lakh on AnTuTu.

It also reveals 64-megapixel rear camera, and a 6000mAh battery and the 3C certification revealed 30W HyperCharge fast charging similar to the predecessor.
