The Asus ROG Phone 5 pre-orders in India are now open. It is the Taiwanese company’s latest flagship and one of the only gaming smartphones to be available in the country.
Launched on March 10, the Asus ROG Phone 5 series will finally go on sale for the first time today (April 15) at 12 pm on Flipkart. It looks like a pre-order at this point, so delivery could take a little longer. For now, only the standard variant will be available – with the ROG Phone 5 Pro and Ultimate coming later.

Along with the 30W charger and cable, the box will also include a free ROG Aero case.
