Mobile gaming industry has become one of the most lucrative industries in India. With millions of people now turning to their mobile phones for their daily dose of gaming needs, it’s no surprise that this industry is flourishing. Today, all major games can be played on mobile phones which are more convenient and accessible than a PlayStation or PC. It makes sense that more people are opting for the handy version.
Keeping this in mind, Asus is one company that is eyeing to make its mark in the mobile gaming space with the release of the Asus ROG Phone 5. The company has released three new smartphones under its ROG 5 series, namely, ROG Phone 5, ROG Phone 5 Pro, and ROG Phone 5 Ultimate. Let us see what each phone has to offer.
