Taiwanese electronics giant Asus is all set to launch its much-anticipated flagship gaming smartphone, the ROG Phone 5 today. The company will announce the device on the global stage in a virtual event starting at 4:15 PM Indian Standard Time. This device is the successor to the ROG Phone 3 that made its way to the market last year. ROG Phone 5 has already surfaced on the internet when it leaked out in a DxOMark Audio review last month. Besides the leak, Asus has also shared some first-hand information regarding the device including the launch live stream. We also got to know that the gaming smartphone will feature some insane amount of RAM. Here is everything we know regarding the upcoming Asus ROG Phone 5 including the RAM, design, and launch live stream.
Asus ROG Phone 5 to feature 18GB RAM; details
According to a statement from SK Hynix, the Asus ROG Phone 5 will feature 18GB LPDDR5 RAM. The South Korean semiconductor maker noted that the 18GB RAM modules will run at a speed of 6,400Mbps. For some context, this means that these new modules are approximately 20 percent faster than the previous LPDDR5 RAM. The company has already mass production for these RAM modules. Considering that ROG Phone 5 is a flagship smartphone, it is likely to feature Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 SoC. Past models also indicated that we may get a familiar high-refresh-rate screen on the device.
Design-wise, we already know from past leaks that the smartphone will likely feature a dot-matrix technology display on the back. Other aspects include the usual trigger buttons, a 3.5mm audio socket, and more. We have seen other specifications surface on the Geekbench listing but we will wait for the official announcement instead of speculation.
ROG Phone 5 launch live stream; here is how to watch
Like the ROG Phone 3 launch, Asus is going the virtual route to announce the smartphone on the global stage. Asus India will live stream the event on its official YouTube channel. One can head to the channel or watch the event in the YouTube embed above. The company also outlined that the device will be available on Flipkart soon after the announcement.
