Unfortunately, the ASUS ROG 6 Pro premium gaming phone did not pass the test. In a new video, Zach Nelson tears down the phone to see why it snapped in half.<br \/>\nIn case you are unfamiliar with what JerryrigEverything is, it\u2019s a YouTube channel that boasts 7.51 million subscribers at the time of writing this article. The creator posts several videos that revolve around modern technology, but his most viewed videos are his durability tests.<br \/>\nIn the tests, he scratches, burns, and bends the phones to see if they can survive abuse. The ASUS ROG 6 Pro did not survive this test, unfortunately.<br \/>\nThe ROG 6 Pro gets its official teardown<br \/>\nAs a follow-up to the durability test, Zach posted a video digging into the phone to figure out why it snapped.<br \/>\nThe main culprit behind the phone snapping is the placement of the power button and USB-C port. The phone snapped right at the center, and that\u2019s where these two components were placed. They line up with the motherboard and a strange unknown cavity that Zach found right next to the power button.<br \/>\nBecause of this, there\u2019s not much keeping the phone together. There are two battery cells, and they lie on either side of the phone. So, the only thing keeping the phone from snapping is the motherboard.<br \/>\nDigging deeper into the phone, he was able to remove the batteries and learn more about the phone\u2019s cooling system. There is thermal paste directly under the motherboard, and that works in tandem with the vapor chamber cooling system.<br \/>\nThat makes sense, as this phone is designed to be used for gaming. Having a proper cooling system will keep the phone from heating up during long gaming sessions.<br \/>\nOverall, the ROG 6 Pro teardown revealed that ASUS paid a lot of attention to this phone\u2019s heat dissipation. It\u2019s a quality phone, but it\u2019s just not structurally sound.<br \/>\nThe ROG 6 Pro is still a great phone<br \/>\nWhile this phone isn\u2019t as structurally sound, it\u2019s still a great option if you\u2019re looking for a quality gaming phone.<br \/>\nAndroid Headlines did a review on it, and it got high marks for its performance. The phone received our editor\u2019s choice award, so it\u2019s definitely worth checking out.
