In October 2022, according to the results of a survey by the MMD Research Institute, which investigates consumer trends and market research for smartphones and tablets,Main type of smartphone, iPhone was 49.4% and Android was 50.4%. As shown in the results of the survey, recently, Android in particular is said to be increasing its market share, but the popularity of the iPhone is continuous, and the reason for it is “simple and comfortable”.
Since the iPhone uses an OS independently developed by Apple, all models have a similar UI and are easy to use once you get used to them. In addition, since the games posted on the App Store are customized for the iPhone, the fact that the application runs smoothly is also popular among game lovers. So, this time, we compared the high-priced and highly functional “ASUS ROG Phone 6 Pro”, which is known as the gaming smartphone among Android, and the latest model “iPhone 14 Pro Max” in the series according to “performance basic”, “battery” and “size”. Which one is more suitable for enjoying the game?
Compare the basic performance of “ASUS ROG Phone 6 Pro” and “iPhone 14 Pro Max”
It is most important for gaming smartphones to move smoothly during games. That is why it is characterized by having a higher performance CPU than general smartphones. A CPU is also called a processor, and if you compare it, it is a part that should be called the “brain” of a smartphone, but the higher the performance of the CPU, the faster it can process various tasks. What about both CPUs?

■ASUS ROG Phone 6 Pro
Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 (Octa-core CPU) Adreno 730
iPhone 14 Pro Max
Chip: A16 Bionic
ROG Phone 6 Pro has the latest CPU called Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1. In addition, in the “AnTuTu Benchmark” test that measures the speed performance achieved by ASUS x ASCII, it has scored over 1 million . Smartphone games also tend towards higher image quality, but with the same CPU, anything seems to run smoothly. On the other hand, the iPhone also achieves the speed and efficiency of processing that leads the industry called A16 Bionic. Neither will feel lacking when enjoying a normal game.
A large capacity battery is recommended
Now let’s look at the battery. As anyone who plays games on a smartphone knows, the battery drains quickly when playing games. If you are buying a new smartphone, check the battery performance. The battery capacity is expressed as a numerical value of “○○mAh”, but if you want to play games, you want 3000mAh to 4000mAh. Of course, the higher the value, the better the battery life, but how long is the battery for both?
■ASUS ROG Phone 6 Pro
Battery capacity: 6000mAh
iPhone 14 Pro Max
Battery capacity: 4323mAh
When I compared it, I found that the ASUS ROG Phone 6 Pro has a larger battery capacity than the iPhone 14 Pro Max.
I want to be picky about size
Also, consider the size of your smartphone. If you play games on your smartphone, you want to be specific about the size. The small screen makes my eyes tired and I can’t enjoy the fine graphics. Given the functionality of the game, I personally recommend a larger size. However, depending on the person, it may be too big to hold, so try holding it in your hand several times to find the perfect size.
■ASUS ROG Phone 6 Pro
Screen size: 6.78 inches
iPhone 14 Pro Max
Screen size: 6.7 inches
Both have large display sizes. It’s a powerful size that makes it easy to see it all and immerse yourself in the world of the game. In fact, “ROG Phone 6 Pro VS iPhone 13 Pro Max – Speed Test”, the channel “liTech” compares the operating speed of the two on YouTube.

As a result, the iPhone 14 Pro Max was found to have the fastest operating speed when powering on, YouTube and Facebook apps, and clicking on the camera. However, ASUS ROG Phone 6 Pro is still a gaming smartphone, so when you start the game application, the operation speed is fast.
Anyway, “ASUS ROG Phone 6 Pro” and “iPhone 14 Pro Max” have specifications that are sufficient to enjoy the game. It might be a good idea to choose either Android or iPhone because it is an expensive purchase, but it is easy to use.
