Gizchina News of the week
The ROG phone 2 only recently secured certifications from US FCC, Wi-Fi Alliance, and China’s 3C. And while the certification document dint reveals much, it did confirm it will come with 30W fast charging support. Additionally, certification documents also suggest the device will come in two variants. And like we mentioned earlier, a model will come with 30W charging, and the second with 18W charging support.
The difference in charging support notwithstanding, both models will pack similar hardware. Specifically, both variants will no doubt come with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 855 SoC under the hood. RAM size is expected to be as much as 12GB with improved cooling system and its glowing logo.
More details in the form of teasers and leaks will no doubt surface in the coming days.
