Pros and Cons

Motorola Edge 40 Pro

Strengths

The Moto Edge 40 Pro brings some revamped features which bring it more along the lines of an ultra model

IP68 waterproofing, a telephoto zoom, and 125 watt fast charging make this phone a premium device
Long-term software support with three years of OS upgrades and four years of security patches
The Snapdragon 8 gen 2 chipset provides better performance and efficiency than the previous generation
A long-lasting battery with great endurance rating of 117 hours

Weaknesses

Some aspects of the camera quality don't live up to the flagship price tag
Regular two-time zoomed photos from the telephoto cam are just okay, not the sharpest around and heavily processed
The ultrawide's photos aren't great either, with a high contrast and sharpening applied, and noise visible in areas like the skies
Night mode processing can be hit or miss, sometimes losing details in highlights or shadows
The zoom camera does a good job with night mode processing, but disabling it results in darker shadows and heavy noise reduction
The front-facing camera produces selfies at 15 megapixels instead of the actual 60 megapixel resolution

Asus ROG Phone 6 Pro

Asus has delivered a top-notch gaming phone which is pretty much unmatched when it comes to the sheer number of features and options available to enhance the gaming experience
You get a standout display excellent audio quality and great battery life with that said
The camera takes decent photos, especially in daylight, with plenty of detail and nice colors
The phone has impressive charging speed, going from 0 to 75 percent in half an hour

Weaknesses

It's not a huge upgrade over last year's model, with only a handful of tweaks
You can't get the full experience without the cooling fan, which now has to be bought separately on top of an already pretty expensive device
The macro cam photos are surprisingly clean and usable, but lack detail compared to the main cam
Some sharpening artifacts appear in photos from the main cam, especially in portraits
