Asus Zenfone 9 India launch date, Price, and colors

As per Youtuber Sahil Karoul, the Asus Zenfone 9 will arrive in India tomorrow. Asus is yet to confirm the same, but we are expecting Asus to reveal it by the end of the day or tomorrow (August 23, Tuesday) itself.

The Zenfone 9 comes with a flagship chipset and has a compact body, and that said, Indian fans are awaiting its release. However, it is worth noting that the price of the smartphone in the global market was €799 (roughly Rs 64,800).
