Asus’ upcoming gaming smartphone, tagged as the ROG Phone 8 series, is said to get several upgrades, one of which also includes a new design and appearance. The new smartphones are expected to be first revealed at the upcoming Consumer Electronics Show 2024 (CES 2024) in Las Vegas. Still, Asus will also see an official launch in China on 16 January 2024. Apart from packing in some exciting hardware, the new smartphones are now also confirmed to pack an IP68 rating, which has never been possible on previous models for various reasons.
According to a post on the brand’s official handle on Chinese microblogging platform Weibo, the phone is now confirmed to have an IP68 rating for both dust and water resistance. This would bring the new smartphones on par with devices from Samsung, which has been offering an IP68 rating for several years. Asus’s ROG Phone 8 series is also said to go with a flat display with thin bezels on all sides and a camera embedded into a hole-punch cavity at the top.
