Asus Looking to Enter U.S Smartphone Market Next Year

Jul 29, 2013, 1:36 PM by Eric M. Zeman

Asus may already sell tablets in the U.S., but it wants to expand its stateside product offerings to include smartphones as soon as next year. Speaking to AllThingsD, Asus chairman Johnny Shih said the company is working to build its relationships with U.S network operators. Asus is already well-known as the maker of Google's Nexus 7 tablet and the FonePad smartphone. Shih did explicitly not say what types of smartphones the company is seeking to sell in the U.S. Asus would like to get into the U.S. as soon as this year, but thinks 2014 is a more likely timeframe.

I Hope not. Most of us PC Modders and builders stopped putting ASUS motherboards in our computers around 4-5 years ago when they started putting out crappier and crappier units. Northbridge failures abound.

EVGA and Gigabyte boards rule the extreme...

They already do. It's called the padfone. We just can't get it here in the US. But maybe that will change next year.
