Asus launched its Zenfome 8 series globally a few weeks ago. However, there is a delay in its’ Indian launch due to the second wave of coronavirus crisis in India. The phones have surfaced on the Google Play supported devices list with their alternate names. If we recall, Asus ZenFone 6 launched in India as Asus 6Z. Now, it looks like Asus ZenFone 8 series is also likely to get the same ‘Z’ moniker – Asus 8Z. On the other hand, it is unclear when it will arrive in India.

Although this time around the company has finally confirmed the launch of the series by putting its product pages live officially. This is hinting towards an imminent launch for the Asus ZenFone 8 series. Although we cannot expect it to launch with its current name. This is because, in the Indian market, the Zen and ZenMobile trademarks are owned by a different company in the country. Moreover, the landing pages do not mention the moniker of the devices. However, if we wait, more leaks will come pouring in as it is nearing launch.
