We’ve gamed on the ROG Phone 2 last month and now, the ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) has officially announced the arrival of an amped up ROG Phone 2 Ultimate Edition (12GB RAM/1TB ROM). It features pretty much the same specs as the first but gets a mega boost in storage and speedier LTE connectivity.
Choose from the 2 bundles. First is the Overdrive Gaming 2.0 bundle where you can get the ROG Phone 2 Ultimate Edition together with the ROG Kunai Gamepad, the Lighting Armor Case, and an ROG Exclusive Jacket for P64,995.00. Second is the Wear Victory 2.O bundle, which reserves an ROG Exclusive Jacket for those who would like to pre-order the ROG Phone 2 Ultimate Edition without any added cost.
It will be available for pre-orders from December 7 to 13, 2019 ( https://forms.gle/PP7uVS9y93Bti9LD6) and will retail at P59,995.00.
