Asus in the news

Asus is a Taiwanese company that started by building motherboards for desktop computers. It later began selling complete computers in addition to computer components, as well as laptops. Its full name is ASUSTeK Computer Inc., sometimes shortened to ASUSTeK or ASUS.

Asus history

Asus was founded in 1989 by four former Acer employees. They were working on a motherboard for an Intel processor. It later also developed laptops, video cards, and PDAs.

The first Asus phones rolled off the assembly line in 2003. The Asus J100 was a flip phone and had 3G functionality. Smartphones, mainly using Windows Mobile, soon followed. Later, Garmin and Asus joined forces and brought the Nüvifone to market. In 2010, this collaboration came to an end.

At the end of 2008, Asus joined the Open Handset Alliance. This consortium was set up to develop the Android operating system. The first Asus smartphone with Android was the PadFone. This 4.3-inch device came with a 10-inch tablet screen where it could plug in.

Asus series

Asus has a long history with many forays into different platforms and designs. Consider the PadFone series, a smartphone/tablet hybrid, and the P series, consisting of Windows Mobile phones. Currently, the offering consists of two series;

  • Zenfone: Compact flagship
  • ROG Phone: Ultimate gaming phones with range of accessories

Love for Intel

Asus and Intel have a long history of close collaboration. While Intel is significant in the desktop computer market, it is not a large player in cell phones. Cell phone manufacturers mostly use ARM-based chips because of their energy efficiency. Nevertheless, in 2015, Asus came out with an Android smartphone powered by an Intel Atom processor. Besides this Zenfone 2, also versions of the Zenfone 4, Zenfone 5 and Zenfone 6 received Intel Atom processors. After that, Asus would only use processors from Qualcomm.
