Asus ROG Phone will hit Indian market in September

Ro, 18 June 2018

After the surprising launch of the so-called ROG Phone by Asus during this year's Computex, the company is looking to release the device on the Indian market as well.

According to unnamed sources, the phone will debut in India sometime in September but no specifics were given. Technically, this will be the first gaming-centric smartphone to be sold in India - even Xiaomi's Black Shark and ZTE's nubia Red Magic didn't make it there.

This comes as a big surprise because the ROG Phone wasn't supposed to exit Taiwan, yet this is an opportunity for the company to cash in on the Indian market. The source also indicates that there might be a possibility for the European also to get the phone.

Still... nobody knows how much this thing will cost ?? And I hope they sell it with ALL the accessories INCLUDED in the box with the phone. See Even if its an extra cost, it would be required to force people to get those goodies. Otherwise ...

Not happening for sure because in India anything related to gaming will attract super luxury tax making the price at least 50% higher if not double the original price.
