With this, ASUS continues its run of accomplishments by securing its highest number of iF Design Awards to date.

The iF Design Award is one of the most important and prestigious design awards in the world. Since 1954, the iF International Forum Design in Hannover has awarded the iF Design Award. Every year the organization receives thousands of submissions from dozens of countries, among which an international jury selects a list of winners based on vision and brand values, design and brand communication, as well as brand identity and differentiation. In 2024 the jury received 10,807 submissions from over 70 countries.
Thirty ASUS and Republic of Gamers (ROG) products were recognized for their innovative and user-centric product design across a wide range of sectors, including gaming, consumer electronics, commercial ventures, healthcare, mobile technology, and networking. This year, several of the products, that were announced at CES in January, stood out for meeting the evolving needs of users. Zenbook Duo (2024) impressed with its innovative dual-screen design, boasting two vibrant 14-inch OLED touchscreens and a magnetic clip-on keyboard. Another notable mention was the Zephyrus G16, a portable gaming powerhouse weighting only 1.85 kg and measuring just 1.49 cm thin. The ExpertBook B5 Series received recognition for seamlessly blending sleek aesthetics with enterprise-grade security, making it an ideal choice for professionals seeking performance and reliability on the go. Not just acclaimed at the iF Design Awards, but also one of the most beloved announcements at CES® 2024 was the ROG Phone 8 gaming smartphone, celebrated for its unparalleled gaming and content creation capabilities. Lastly, the ROG Falchion RX Gaming Keyboard garnered attention for its high-quality build, compact design, and personalized gaming experiences thanks to the ROG RX Optical Mechanical switches.
These exceptional products highlight the company's capacity to anticipate and fulfill the evolving requirements of users across different industry sectors and product categories.
