While there is no information on the pricing of the ROG Phone 3, we expect it to be more expensive than its predecessor, considering the company has opted for the latest flagship chipset coupled with India’s GST price hikes. We expect the ROG Phone 3 to compete with the OnePlus 8 and Realme X50 Pro.
