After a series of leaks that suggested Asus plans to launch a Fan Edition phone, the Taiwanese company is now making the ROG Phone 9 FE official. Initially introduced in Thailand, the ROG Phone 9 FE is a slightly cheaper version of the regular ROG Phone 9 model.Another major difference between the ROG Phone 9 FE and Asus’s other two ROG Phone 9 flagships is the battery. The former is powered by a 5,500 mAh battery with support for 65W wired charging speeds, while the latter pack slightly larger 5,800 mAh batteries.

Aside from that, the ROG Phone 9 FE is pretty much identical to the regular and PRO models when it comes to specs. This means that it sports a similar 6.78-inch AMOLED display with 1080 x 2400 pixels resolution, up to 185 Hz refresh rate, 2,500 nit peak brightness and Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protection.
On the back, the ROG Phone 9 FE features a triple camera setup, which consists of a 50-megapixel primary camera (Sony IMX890 1/1.56-inch sensor) with gimbal OIS (optical image stabilization), a 13-megapixel ultra-wide camera, and a 5-megapixel macro camera. There’s also a 32-megapixel secondary camera in the front for state-of-the-art selfies.
