Moreover, the ROG logo makes a comeback with RGB backlighting. If you recall, Asus partnered with the Chinese gaming giant last year to launch a Tencent version of the ROG Phone II. It was cheaper than the original version, however, it was only available in China. Besides being cheaper, users had to deal with a good amount of pre-loaded Tencent content. Now, the company seems to be gearing up to launch another Tencent branded version of its gaming phone. It may also use the same strategy as the Tencent ROG Phone II. Worth mentioning that the BlackShark was also released in partnership with Tencent. Apparently, the gaming giant is big enough to partner with several companies. We will have to wait for the official launch of this device to see what it offers.
