Final week marked the primary sighting of the Asus ROG Telephone 7 on Geekbench, probably the 7D variant (judging by its module quantity ASUS_AI2205_D). In fact, the earlier D mannequin used a Dimensity chip, so this is likely to be a unique variant as a substitute. And there’s no scarcity of variants, there are at the very least two extra lurking within the Geekbench database.
Listed here are the AI2205_B and AI2205_C, presumably the Asus ROG Telephone 7 and seven Professional. Unconfirmed reviews declare that the C model might be obtainable in India.

Word that every one three variants that we have now seen up to now, B, C and D, use the bottom model of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, the one with a 3.19GHz prime core. Previously the corporate has featured souped-up variations of Qualcomm’s prime chip, e.g. the ROG Telephone 5 (and Professional) launched with the bottom Snapdragon 888 (2.84GHz), then got here the ROG Telephone 5s (and Professional), which ran the Snapdragon 888+ (2.99GHz).
There’s a model of the 8 Gen 2 that runs its prime core at 3.36GHz, up from the three.19GHz seen right here, however that’s unique to Samsung. We by no means discovered whether or not this was a timed unique or not.
Anyway, all three variants featured 16GB of RAM, however figuring out Asus, there needs to be at the very least an 18GB model too. This needs to be LPDDR5X RAM plus UFS 4.0 storage like we’ve seen on different 8 Gen 2 flagships.
In accordance with Gadgetsdata, the Asus ROG Telephone 7 could have a 6.8” FHD+ 165Hz AMOLED show (with a built-in fingerprint reader), plus a 6,000mAh battery with 65W charging. That’s just about what the 6-series mannequin had too.
The Asus ROG Telephone 6 sequence arrived in July of final yr, so we’re at the very least a couple of months away from seeing the next-gen ROG telephones.
