Asus will announce its 2024 ROG lineup on January 8 at CES in Las Vegas, which includes the upcoming ROG Phone 8 and 8 Pro devices. A new leak from Windows report gives us our best look at the two devices along with their key specs and accessories. ROG 8 and 8 Pro will adopt a refreshed design with a flat bezel and an updated camera island.

Both phones share the same 6.78-inch AMOLED displays with FHD+ resolution and 165Hz refresh rate. The panels are protected by Gorilla Glass Victus 2 and offer peak brightness of up to 2,500 nits.
The ROG Phone 8 duo will debut Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 with 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM on the ROG Phone 8 and up to 24GB on the ROG Phone 8 Pro. Both phones will offer UFS 4.0 storage with 256GB on the vanilla model and up to 1TB on the Pro. Both devices share the same RGB logo on the back.
The new camera setup on the back will reportedly feature a 50MP main camera (Sony IMX890) along with a 13MP ultrawide lens and a new 32MP telephoto module with 3x optical zoom. The front punch-hole houses a 32MP selfie camera.
