Asus ROG 9 gaming phone launches pre-orders today with deliveries arriving throughout December

The Asus ROG Phone 9 series is now available for pre-order, with shipping anticipated in mid-to-late December – perfect for holiday gifting! This powerful smartphone lineup, featuring the Snapdragon 8 Elite Mobile Platform with Oryon CPU and Adreno GPU, 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 antimicrobial screen protectors, are also available.

A key feature is the inclusion of X Sense 3.0 AI, offering features like auto-item collection and upgrades (on higher-end models), AI noise cancellation, and automatic image capture. The ROG Phone 9 boasts impressive specifications, but whether it's a worthwhile purchase depends on individual needs and budget. High-end specs may be overkill for casual gamers.

For detailed specifications, visit the official Asus website. While the phone's powerful features and high price point might appeal to some, others might find it excessive. Consider your gaming needs and budget before making a purchase. Don't forget to vote in the Pocket Gamer Awards 2024!
