Lamborghini-branded ASUS ZX1 said to be canceled

It's been touted and shown off for a few months now, but it looks like ASUS may have finally given up on its luxurious Lamborghini-branded ZX1 smartphone, at least if Alex of MoDaCo is to be believed. According to him, ASUS has cancelled the planned summer launch of the device in order to ensure that "more important devices" scheduled for Q4 of this year are released on time. No word if that means we may still eventually see the pricey phone released sooner or later, but we wouldn't recommend holding your breath at the moment.

Aahh Geee Wiiizzzz What phone will I get to go with my new Lambo? I hope they keep making the laptops. Maybe they should do a Hyundai phone, more potential buyers?

good, because it totally would have clashed with my maserati.

I spoke with the Australian product manager only last week and he said it was on their slate to release this handset.
