The ASUS ROG Phone 8 charging speed has just been revealed. The phone appeared over at the 3C authority in China, where its charging speed was confirmed. The ASUS ROG Phone 8 will offer 65W wired charging.
The ASUS ROG Phone 8 charging speed gets revealed way early
This is completely unsurprising, as its predecessors offered the same charging. Both the ASUS ROG Phone 7 and ROG Phone 7 Ultimate supported 65W wired charging. Those two phones also offered 10W reverse wired charging, which will likely be the case with this device too.
ASUS seems to be uninterested when it comes to adding wireless charging to its gaming smartphone lineup. Now, wireless charging is not usually confirmed by the 3C authority, so there’s still a chance, but… don’t get your hopes up.
The charging speed is the only thing the 3C authority confirmed here. The phone appeared under the ‘ASUS-AI2141_A’ model number. The phone will support charging at the following modes: 15W (5V/3A), 27W (9V/3A), 45W (15V/3A) and 65W (20V/3.25A).
The entire ROG Phone 8 series will utilize the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC
We don’t have much information about the ROG Phone 8 just yet. What we do know is that it will be fueled by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, and that goes for the entire smartphone series.
We’re once again expecting to see more than one device, as we’ll likely get two smartphones in the series. You can expect a ton of gaming features once again, and top-of-the-line specifications too.
ASUS will likely utilize LPDDR5X or LPDDR5T RAM, and UFS 4.0 flash storage. Advanced cooling will be a part of the package, as will the shoulder trigger on the right-hand side of the device.
Now, the ASUS ROG Phone 8 is not expected to drop anytime soon. The ROG Phone 7 series arrived in April 2023, while the ROG Phone 6 series launched in July 2022. So, chances are we’ll have to wait until Q2 next year, at the very earliest.
