News & Reviews:   ROG Phone pre-order

If you missed the special ROG Phone sale on 16 May 2019, ASUS will be having another one in its official online store during the Lazada Raya Sales and Shopee Super Brand Day. Once again, the ultimate gaming phone will have RM1000 off and it also includes a free GameVice in the package, starting from 5 June 2019.

You read that right, gamers. In conjunction with the Hari Raya sales on Lazada, ASUS Malaysia will be slicing off RM1000 on its ROG Phone only on 16 May 2019!! Also for this one-day sale, it's only applicable on the ASUS Flagship Store in LazMall and nowhere else.

When gaming phones were becoming a thing early this year, I can still vaguely remember jokes about having an ROG Phone with my friends. Well well well, ASUS actually listened and bam, they revealed the Republic of Gamers gaming smartphone at Computex 2018 and now it's finally released in Malaysia. From a starting price of RM3499 (or RM3999 if you want the 512GB model), this can be considered a pretty sweet deal but is it just a gimmick? How about you read below to find out.

During somewhere at the end of July 2018, our local distributor DirectD set up a survey link asking how many Malaysians are interested in the ROG Phone. As far as we know, the ROG Phone is coming in two variants of 128GB and 512GB (according to DirectD) and in this latest leak, Mr Anonymous has told us something that might be of interest for you.

ASUS Republic of Gamers has been really quiet about their ambitious ROG Phone over the past few weeks, nobody knows the availability and price but one thing for sure is that Malaysians (and Phillipinos lol) are huge fans of it. Well, perhaps the time of waiting is coming to an end soon because our local distributor DirectD, has just released a teaser of the ROG Phone's arrival on their Facebook page.

Finally, the questions that our readers have been asking for the past few weeks - What is the price of the ROG phone? Seriously, TechNavers, if we knew we would have announced it already but then again, it does show the popularity and while ASUS is keeping their mouth tight on this, we have received news that the gaming phone will be launching in India during the third quarter.

Before Computex 2018 kicks off, ASUS Republic of Gamers quickly hosted their gaming products including the exciting gaming products such as the their very first gaming ROG Phone, new gaming ROG Strix SCAR II and ROG Strix Hero II laptops, world's first tri-band 802.11ax router ROG Rapture GT-AX11000, ROG Ryujin and ROG Ryuo CPU coolers, a ROG Thor 1200W Platinum power supply, as well as a new ROG Delta gaming headset and others.
