Asus ROG Phone II was recently unveiled globally.
The handset’s pricing was not announced earlier but it has now been revealed.
The phone starts at CNY 3,499 (Rs 35,000 approx) in China.
Asus recently announced the ROG Phone II, which is its second gaming-centric handset that comes with geeked-out specs and features. While the smartphone is probably the most powerful gaming phone right now, there was no information on what it could be priced at or when it will officially hit the shelves. However, the company has made the ROG Phone II official in China and has revealed its pricing in the country. While there’s no guarantee that the price of the phone will be the same as its China pricing, there’s a good chance that it can be priced around the same figure.
The Asus ROG Phone II (first-impressions) is up for pre-orders in China via jd.com and as per the listing, it comes in four variants and will go on sale in the country on July 31. The phone’s Tencent game custom variant that is equipped with 8GB RAM and 128GB of storage is priced at CNY 3,499 (Rs 35,000 approx) in China. There’s also a standard 12GB RAM + 512GB storage version of the handset, which costs 5,999 (Rs 60,000 approx) and it is slightly unconventional that the handset’s customised version is priced lower than the regular version.
Moving on, the ROG Phone II is also offered in a Zhizun version that sells for CNY 7999 (Rs 80,145 approx). There’s also an e-sports armour version of the phone, which sells for CNY 12999 (Rs 1,30,224). While these two variants are not mentioned on JD.com, the company announced them in a Weibo post. However, on the online retailer’s website, an Enjoy peace in Beijing variant with 12GB RAM + 512GB storage is priced at CNY 6199 (Rs 62,117 approx), while its 8GB RAM + 128GB storage version costs CNY 3699 (Rs 37, 070 approx). While the company has revealed the China pricing of the ROG Phone II, we can expect it to be priced around the same or slightly higher in India.
