Asus ZenFone 8 and ZenFone 8 Flip will launch in India in the coming weeks. The ZenFone 8 series may launch as the Asus 8Z lineup in India as the company does not hold the license to use the ZenFone brand name in the country. This was why the ZenFone 6 launched as the Asus 6Z in India back in 2019. Currently, there is no official word on when Asus plans to launch the ZenFone 8 series in India. The company postponed its launch events earlier this month due to the rise in COVID-19 cases.
While the world is excited for the launch of our new smartphone, we at ASUS India have consciously decided to defer the launch till the current scenario improves. Our thoughts n prayers are with those affected with Covid #stayhomestaysafe, n emerge stronger! #IndiaFightsCOVID19
