The ASUS ROG Phone 7 series launch date has just been confirmed by the company, and it’ll launch earlier than expected. The company has confirmed that April 13 is the date.

The ASUS ROG Phone 7 launch date has been revealed by the company

ASUS announced that via its official social media channels. The event will kick off at 8 AM EST / 5 AM PST / 2 PM CET / 1 PM BST. Considering that the ROG Phone 6 series arrived in early July last year, this comes earlier than expected. We were waiting for a summer launch, but ASUS changed its plans.

In any case, this launch event will be livestreamed, so you’ll be able to follow along. ASUS even shared a link for the livestream already, in case you’d like to bookmark that.

What’s interesting is that ASUS did not mention the ROG Phone 7 series, but just the ROG Phone 7 in its teaser. Well, at least on Twitter. If you, however, click the link provided above, you’ll see that the ROG Phone 7 series is mentioned. So, we’re expecting both the ROG Phone 7 and ROG Phone 7 Pro to launch.

Three versions have been spotted on Geekbench thus far

Now, do note that three versions of the phone were spotted on Geekbench already, so… things could be a bit different this time around. We may even see three models launched.

As far as specs are concerned, we don’t have much info, but we do have some. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 will almost certainly fuel the devices, while all devices will include up to 16GB of RAM. The most powerful unit may even include up to 18GB of RAM.

The ASUS ROG Phone 7 is tipped to include a 6.8-inch fullHD+ AMOLED display with a 165Hz refresh rate. A 6,000mAh battery was also mentioned for the device, and the same goes for 65W fast wired charging.

We’ll have to wait in order to get more information, but all devices will almost certainly ship with Android 13, and ASUS’ custom UI. ASUS always makes rather interesting gaming phones, so we’re wondering how will these differ from the ROG Phone 6 series.
