Asus ROG Phone 9 and ROG Phone 9 Pro are finally available in the US
The Asus ROG Phone 9 and ROG Phone 9 Pro were unveiled back in November, with the US launch planned for January 2025. Well, here we are in January 2025, and the two flagship smartphones have now finally become available in the US.
The recommended pricing is $999.99 for the ROG Phone 9, $1,199.99 for the ROG Phone 9 Pro, and $1,499.99 for the ROG Phone 9 Pro Edition. Currently, Asus' online store has a $100 off deal on the ROG Phone 9, bringing its price down to $899.99. It's unclear how long this introductory deal will last, however.
The ROG Phone 9 comes with a 6.78-inch LTPO AMOLED screen with 185 Hz refresh rate and 2,500-nit peak brightness, the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, 12/16GB of RAM, 256/512GB of storage, a triple rear camera system (50 MP main with gimbal OIS, 13 MP ultrawide, 5 MP macro), a 32 MP selfie camera, and a 5,800 mAh battery with 65W wired and 15W wireless charging support. There's also an 85-dot programmable Mini-LED matrix on the back.
The Pro ups the Mini-LED dots to 648 and brings a 32 MP telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom to replace the macro cam, while the Edition ups the RAM to 24GB and the storage to 1TB while also packing a bundled AeroActive Cooler X Pro.
