The ZenFone 6's rotating camera turns out to be one of my favorite bad ideas 🤓

The way they utilized the motor for panorama and object tracking is amazing. Even though this is supposed to be workaround for avoiding notch, they went beyond just that.

Worth a buy. We should support companies like Asus who makes "Technology affordable"

ONEPLUS: gets rid of the headphone jack for a "bigger battery"
ASUS: 5000mah battery + headphone jack

That’s dope. Panorama and the other features are pretty genius

One of the best implementations on a mechanized camera. Amazing Asus.

Companies trying to avoiding the notch means some real creative ideas for us

I am bit of a ASUS fanboy because I have a ASUS laptop that will turn 10 years old this January. Still not a single problem (Apart from DVD drive).
And not to mention the recent innovations in laptops they are putting out.
Now THIS phone at that pricetag
Makes me a proud fan of the company

Amazing phone. The $500 smartphone category seems to be way more competitive and worthy than the flagship category.

Stock Android, 5000mah battery, and a headphone jack! What is this, a company that actually listens to it's costumers 😲

[davidhartley]

Notification light is the most underrated feature on phones.

[HughesyTech]

Budget phone?

*It's actually a flagship*

5000 MAH battery
Not $1, 000
Headphone jack


So Uh, You really want my money huh?

[TheIllaman]

Frankly I think you have been too harsh with this phone man...stock Android, 5k mah, same (main) camera as OP7 but much cheaper. I think this is one of the best phone of the year

[tuts]

When he says mid range I hope he means price and not the features, because this phone is a beast with SD855 and 4k front and back recording, expandable memory, 5000 mAh battery and back recording.

I don't appreciate lumping this camera system in with notches and cutouts. It doesn't block the screen in any way, and it is actually an improvement in many ways since it uses same quality camera as the rear cameras. This even more apparently when they added panoramic functionality to the mechanism. I hardly ever take selfies, so i'd rather just have something like this than have a permanent notch on my screen. I'd be worried a bit about durability and functionality with protective cases.

OnePlus: we have the coolest camera setup
Asus: *hold my notch*

[firozonthemove]

Sweet Stock UI
5000 Mah.
Snapdragon 855
What else do you need on a 500$ phone? One of the best indeed.

"oppo n1 swivel it manually like a cave man" thats savage

Asus is THE innovative company for phones and laptops.
