ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) is starting the year with a big bang. Today they have announced the ROG Phone 8 series, a sleek, trendy phone that offers unbridled performance. The ROG Phone 8 series will tentatively be launched in Malaysia this 30th January 2023.

The Phone 8 Series comes in 2 colours, black and grey. The premium phone is also slimmer, lighter, and offers a multitude of benefits to gamers, streamers and content creators alike.

If you’re in for some long gaming hours and worried about overheating, the Rapid-Cooling Conductor design — part of the advanced GameCool 8 thermal design — conducts heat directly from the processor to the back cover.

The display features a brand new  6.78″ 165 Hz flexible AMOLED ultra-slim bezel 2500-nit screen with LTPO adaptive refresh and ultra-smooth 720 Hz touch sampling rate. Peak brightness is now boosted to 2500 nits so don’t worry about that sunlight.

The Phone 8 series features four gaming-friendly AI features in the ROG Phone 8 series elevate the gaming experience to a new level.
