ASUS has announced when it will launch the ROG Phone 9 series, and we've covered all the details in a separate article. The company plans to take about a month before it fully unveils its upcoming gaming smartphones. However, they've already given a glimpse of at least one model's appearance.
Sneak Peek of the ROG Phone 9
Additionally, some sources have shared videos showing the ROG Phone 9 in action, which we’ve included below. K-Tai Watch Impress Japan captured the device during Qualcomm's Snapdragon Summit. Interestingly, the chipset maker also introduced the Snapdragon 8 Elite at the same event yesterday. This new chip will be the heart of ASUS' ROG Phone 8 successor, which is currently priced at $1,099.99 on Amazon.
A Closer Look at the Device
On the other hand, YouTuber GadgetsBoy seems to have obtained a retail version of the ROG Phone 9. Even though they didn't directly mention it in their brief video, the retail packaging is clearly visible. In general, the ROG Phone 9 looks to have a more upscale design compared to its earlier version. Nevertheless, it’s still unclear what practical improvements ASUS has implemented between the two generations, aside from the upgrade from the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 to the Snapdragon 8 Elite.
GadgetsBoy and K-Tai Watch Impress Japan have both contributed to revealing more about this exciting new device.
