ASUS Aura concept handset called a fake -- by ASUS

We admit, we were a little perplexed to see that ASUS is not "officially" endorsing this super-svelte and touchably beautiful Aura handset. Alas, the Aura was supposedly a design prototype ordered by ASUS from Hungarian design company Egy Studio. The problem is that ASUS claims the entire Aura handset is, well, a complete fake. If so, why are official-looking images of the device posted on Egy Studio's website? This makes little sense except for ASUS possibly trying to take back information on a leaked prototype that, umm, exists at the website of an alleged design partner of the Taiwanese company. We'd all love to see this killer Aura concept come to life -- but maybe it's just not to be after all.

So.
Bence Bogar is a desinger in hungary. He created some phone design, like this. But it's not ordered from asus.
So the concept is real, but not for the asus.
Please try to translate this link:
Asus again the aura phone

Why were officiel photos on Egy Studio's website?
Because that is Bence Bogar's webpage.
We hope, that another company will create this phone .
