Now, however, the company's chairman has confirmed (in Chinese) that Asus is withdrawing completely from smartphone manufacturing.
According to Asus' Jonney Shih, the company will continue to provide software updates, servicing, and support for its existing smartphones. However, no new phones will be released by Asus going forward.
Asus was the last major Android manufacturer still producing compact smartphones. The company's final small handset was the Asus Zenfone 10, launched in 2023. After that, the company shifted its focus to gaming phones under the ROG Phone series.
