Big correction, its only dual band so please edit your title so you do not confuse people.

That puts it at $50 off the MSRP which is pretty good, but its still a lot to pay for a dual band. The router is very well reviewed though, but at this high of a price point I would start looking at triband. If they launched this last year it would have had more time to shine, now with other wifi 6 and 6E tribands just not worth it in my opinion.

Any reason to pay the $50 more to get this over the RT-AX88U ?

Biggest difference is this has the 2.5gb ports and is also a bit newer and updated but fairly similar otherwise. The rog is more gamer focused and has game focused optimizations

ASUSWRT-Merlin also recently added support for this router. https://www.asuswrt-merlin.net/

This is a good router but it came out at a time when WiFi 6e is already out and already has a high price. If WiFi 6e doesn't matter and $350-$399 is within your budget, it's worth it.

I'll stay with my AX88U since the functionality is more or less the same.

I've used a sample. It's a good router, just not worth the price point.

Has a newer gen BCM main processor on a node shrink. Amplifier/Antenna setup is better than AX86U/AX88U, but not worth the upgrade from either.
