If you're searching for a holiday tech gift, or need to impress a discerning recipient, the highly-anticipated Asus ROG Phone 9 series has just opened pre-orders.
Set to ship in mid-to-late December, the ROG Phone 9 series packs a punch. Powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Mobile Platform, featuring an Oryon CPU and Adreno GPU, the series offers various models to suit different budgets.
The top-of-the-line ROG Phone 9 Pro Edition (24GB/1TB) is priced at £1299.99, while the entry-level ROG Phone 9 (12GB/256GB) is approximately £949.99. A range of accessories, from cooling cases to antibacterial screen protectors, are also available.
A key feature is the inclusion of X Sense 3.0 AI, which offers auto-item collection and upgrades (on higher-end models). AI noise cancellation and automatic image capture further enhance the user experience.
The ROG Phone 9 undoubtedly pushes boundaries in terms of features. However, whether this will sway skeptics remains to be seen. Consult the official Asus website for complete specifications.
Ultimately, the ROG Phone 9 boasts impressive specs and cutting-edge AI features. While appealing to high-end gamers and those with ample disposable income, its price point may deter budget-conscious consumers or those who don't require top-tier performance.
