Asus ROG Phone 3 with Snapdragon 865 Plus SoC, 144Hz display launched in India.

New Delhi, July 23, 2020.

Asus has launched the ROG Phone 3 smartphone in India, which brings the Snapdragon 865+ processor and a 144Hz display to enhance the gaming experience. The ROG Phone 3 is a huge upgrade over its predecessor, both specifications-wise and design-wise but the latter still finds some familiarity. The Asus ROG Phone 3 is another 5G smartphone that has launched in India, even though there is no infrastructure here.

With ROG Phone 3, Asus is competing with the likes of OnePlus 8 Pro, Realme X50 Pro, and the Samsung Galaxy S20 but it has a slightly better processor to offer. Asus is also using flagship-level cameras on the ROG Phone 3, apart from other high-end features such as a 6000mAh battery. All in all, it is an overloaded workhorse that will definitely attract gamers, but customers looking for high-end specifications could also be convinced.

Apart from ROG Phone 3, Asus has launched a horde of accessories that facilitate high-end gaming on the smartphone. There is a Kunai 3 Gamepad, TwinView Dock 3, Mobile Desktop Dock 2, and the Professional Dock 2. Asus is also adding a ROG Clip to attach any gamepad and a Lightning Armour Case for the ROG Phone 3.
