Asus and DC collaborating for ROG Phone 6 Batman edition

Asus is creating a Batman edition of its ROG Phone 6. In collaboration with DC, it will include some Batman-themed hardware design cues but seems to be mostly restricted to software-based skins and themes.

Superhero-themed editions are not something which audiences are not familiar with in the smartphone market. It seems Asus has now also stepped in the ring with its own superhero-themed special edition smartphone just like OnePlus gave us an Avengers-themed OnePlus 6 variant back in 2018 and when Oppo did the same with an Avengers-themed Reno 5 Marvel edition in 2021.

It looks like Asus is giving the Defender of Gotham his very own phone. As for which of Asus’s phones will get Batman treatment, it appears the ROG Phone 6 will be donning the cowl, according to 91mobiles.

Before Batman fans get too excited, it doesn’t look like Asus is doing anything too crazy with the phone’s physical appearance. Based on the renders, the Batman edition of the ROG Phone 6 will only include a few colour changes with the Caped Crusader’s name on the back.

It’s possible that most of the nods related to the crime fighter will be restricted to software, like special Batman themes and skins.

The Batman edition may only be for the ROG Phone 6. There’s no further information so far on the Batman edition for Asus’s upcoming ROG Phone 6D or 6D Ultimate.
