ASUS launched the ROG Phone 5 series in early March. The lineup includes three smartphones, namely ROG Phone 5, ROG Phone 5 Pro, and ROG Phone 5 Ultimate. A month after their announcement, the company has finally revealed the sale date for the vanilla model in India.
Although ASUS has announced all the three ROG Phone 5 series phones for India, only the standard model will be available for purchase first. The first-ever sale of the regular ASUS ROG Phone 5 is scheduled to take place on April 15 at 12 PM.
Back in April 2018, ASUS signed a partnership with Flipkart. Since then, most of the company’s products have been sold exclusively on the home-grown eCommerce giant. Hence, the entire ROG Phone 5 series will be also sold on Flipkart.
As far as pricing is concerned, the ROG Phone 5 series will retail for the following price tags in India.
- ASUS ROG Phone 5
- 8GB + 128GB – ₹49,999
- 12GB + 256GB – ₹57,999
- ASUS ROG Phone 5 Pro
- 16GB + 512GB – ₹69,999
- ASUS ROG Phone 5 Ultimate
- 18GB + 512GB – ₹79,999
Anyway, as mentioned in the beginning, only the vanilla ROG Phone 5 will go on sale on Flipkart at 12 PM on April 15. Interestingly, there seem to be no bank offers as well.
Customers buying the device will get the usual 5% Unlimited Cashback on Flipkart Axis Bank Credit Card and a coupon to purchase either Google Nest Hub or Nest Mini at a discounted price (₹5,999, ₹1999).
Anyway, it is worth noting that the interested customers can exchange their old device to lower the price by up to ₹16,500.
