It may be hard to keep up with the fast-paced world and the ever-changing technological innovations, but that doesn’t mean shopping for gadgets will be a burden. Well, not anymore! Aside from strengthening their partnership with Lazada, ASUS Philippines recently announced the official opening of three online “concept stores” – ASUS ZenFone Store, ASUS Republic of Gamers, and ASUS Store — which are all officially operated by ASUS, together with its select key dealer partners.
The ASUS ZenFone Store will be carrying their complete lineup of smartphones, including their soon-to-be-launched device series dubbed as the “most intelligent ZenFone ever”. ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) will also be offering its key gaming machines in the newly opened online store. ASUS Store, on the other hand, will be more focused on selling ASUS’ entire consumer lineup from mainstream notebooks, ultra-books, 2-in-1s, convertible, all-in-one and mini-PCs and monitors.
“We started our business in the Philippines ten years ago and we have experienced a lot of changes in the business ecosystem locally. From just selling motherboards in our early days in the country now we have a full line-up of products that we share to Filipinos to meet their evolving demands,” shares George Su, ASUS Philippines Country Manager for Systems Group.
“Opening three concept stores online is our way to make our products easily accessible for our fans and all Filipinos who want premium yet value-for-money devices. There is no doubt that Lazada is the perfect online partner for us because they are the number-one online shopping website in the Philippines that offers effortless shopping experience,” Su added.
With this, check out the latest ASUS and ROG products that you can purchase through Lazada:
The ASUS x407 and X507
The ASUS X407 and X507 are perfect devices for people who are looking for a notebook that offers great performance, portability, and premium design without hurting your wallet.
Both devices are powered by the latest Generation Intel® Core™ i3 processor with 1TB HHD and NVIDIA® GeForce® MX110 discrete graphics while the Pentium and Celeron are equipped with 500GB storage. The X407 and X507 have a super thin NanoEdge display with a slim bezel for an immersive viewing experience. Both feature a fingerprint sensor for quick and easy logins with Windows Hello. Despite its large display, X507 is extremely portable, with an overall weight of just 1.68kg. The 14″ version, ASUS X407, weighs just 1.42kg.
Both X407 and X507 are designed for daily computing and entertainment. These Windows 10 laptops also support new and exciting Windows features including Cortana with voice recognition, allowing the user to wake the device from sleep mode simply by saying the “Hey, Cortana” command. Both laptops support fast charging, requiring only 49 minutes to charge a near-flat battery to 60%.
ASUS AiMesh Whole-Home Wi-Fi Routers
AiMesh overcomes many of the limitations found in alternative off-the-shelf whole-home Wi-Fi systems, such as mesh-networking systems. Although these systems can be convenient all-in-one solutions, they are often only available in fixed bundles, with a limited choice of Wi-Fi speeds, hardware features and upgrade paths. With AiMesh, users can create a completely flexible whole-home Wi-Fi system tailored to their needs, while continuing to enjoy all the functions of each individual ASUS router, such as extreme Wi-Fi performance and exclusive advanced networking features. AiMesh also offers convenient central management and control via either the ASUS Router mobile app or the ASUSWRT web interface.
Enabling AiMesh on a compatible ASUS router just requires an easy — and completely free — firmware update that allows it to be added to any AiMesh network, so users can mix and match models according to their budget and/or needs, and make good use of their old router when they upgrade.
The ROG Strix GL503 and 703
All-around performers, the 15-inch ROG Strix GL503 and 17-inch ROG Strix GL703 are powered by the newest Intel Core i7 processor, and Windows 10, equipping the gamer to control the competition. Both laptops also offer up to 32GB of fast DDR4 2400MHz memory and include a VR-ready GeForce GTX 1060 GPU that delivers smooth and stutter-free gameplay for unforgettable virtual-reality experiences.
Strix GL503 and GL703 feature built-in Aura RGB illumination technology, so you can fully customize the backlighting to match your gaming style or mood! The newly designed four hotkeys are for in-game convenience and speedy control: With mute, volume up/down, and ROG Gaming Center buttons right where you need them, full control is at your fingertips. The keyboard features a highlighted WASD key group and anti-ghosting technology with n-key rollover to ensure that your inputs are tracked precisely, no matter how many keys are pressed; and the 0.25mm-deep keycap curve is precisely shaped for typing accuracy.
Both the Strix GL503 and GL703 include ROG Sonic Studio software with in-game noise cancellation and voice-volume stabilization technology, to deliver clearer, louder and more enjoyable audio and chat.

The ROG Strix XG32VQ and ROG Strix XG35VQ are two impressive curved gaming monitors that deliver an immersive and comfortable viewing experience.
The 32-inch ROG Strix XG32VQ is a versatile curved monitor that offers the perfect balance between smooth gaming and brilliant image quality, while the 35-inch ROG Strix XG35VQ is the largest curved monitor in the ROG family and offers unparalleled viewing immersion.

ASUS ZenFone “Battery King” Max Plus
ASUS ZenFone Max Plus (M1) is a smartphone designed to go the distance, to accompany you on all of life’s adventures, and to bring you the bigger picture. With its 5.7-inch full view display, high-capacity 4130mAh battery with advanced power management and 16MP dual cameras, ZenFone Max Plus keeps up with your active lifestyle and is always at the ready to capture every extraordinary moment.
ZenFone Max Plus features an advanced dual-camera system designed to take your mobile photography to new heights. Its 16MP main camera is equipped with the wide F2.0 aperture lens to capture clearer photos. Its 120° wide-angle camera lets your fit more scenery and people in the frame for dramatic landscape shots, better group photos, and a more convenient photography experience in confined indoor spaces.
The 120° wide-angle camera on ZenFone Max Plus has a 200% larger field of view than standard smartphone cameras, so you can fit more scenery and people in the frame for dramatic photos and videos that capture a true sense of place. When taking photos indoors, the wide-angle view makes it much easier to get the shot you want — especially in confined spaces where it may not be possible to take a few steps back to fit everyone and everything into the photo.
