Asus ROG Phone 9 FE appears on multiple websites; Could be identical to ROG Phone 8

Asus is most probably developing the ROG Phone 9 lineup’s FE edition. The company is all set to make a new edition that will have watered-down specifications as compared to the Asus ROG Phone 9 variant. High chances are that the device will be a revamped and a little upgraded version of the ROG Phone 8 which was launched last year.

A report published by 91Mobiles suggested that the Asus ROG Phone 9 FE appeared on the Malaysian SIRIM certification website along with the NBTC certification database of Thailand. The model number carried by the device is ASUS_AI2401_N and the moniker Asus ROG Phone 9 FE is next to the same.

The model number of the device looks pretty similar to that of the Asus ROG Phone 8 which could be a major reason why it is identical to the previous generation Asus device. Expectations are that we will get to see a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor on the device paired with high-capacity RAM and an ample amount of storage. Moving forward, let’s have a look at the specs and features of the ROG Phone 8.
