We're a small but growing player in the phone business that doesn't have an unlimited stock of ROG Phone II. It's natural that we go to the markets where we are already known first and then continue from there. MENA region might be a good market but unfortunately we don't have the resources to go everywhere at once.
I don't have any update on when we will start selling in your region but if you do decide to buy online from abroad, then make sure to not buy a ROG Phone II with Tencent logo. They are only for the Chinese market which means that you won't be able to update it and it's also likely that you won't have any warranty from the re-seller.
Make sure to talk to the re-seller about warranty before you purchase it

Sure, totally understandable!
Not that my knowledge carries much weight, but Dubai *is* a great market - it was mostly dominated by Samsung and Apple, but in recent years Huawei (and Honor) have made taken quite a bit of the market share. We have a considerable slice of the population from the Indian subcontinent as well, where as far as I know this phone is launching.
Dubai is multicultural and gaming is a big theme here, and people usually have disposable income to build gaming PCs or own gaming laptops.
This is why I think a high-end phone such as this, if marketed for well, would be a good idea.
I'll definitely look for the international version, but unfortunately most online resellers (like expansys) do not offer damage protection warranty - they only cover things like if the device was defective when delivered or so.
