ASUS is launching a new smartphone in its ever-expanding portfolio of mid-range phones. The new Zenfone Max Pro M1 comes in a variety of options which means almost everyone could find a version suited to their liking.
The design is not much to write home about, except that the bezels are pretty much kept to a minimum. The inverted dual rear-lens also gives the phone a high-end look.
The display on the front is a 6-inch FHD+ IPS panel with 2160 x 1080 resolution.
Powering the phone is the mid-end Snapdragon 636 processor with either 3, 4 or 6 GB of RAM.
The storage capacity for the first of these variants is 32 GB, while for the remaining it is set at 64 GB. Storage is expandable via a dedicated microSD card slot. All variants are dual-SIM by default as well.
Zenfone Max Pro M1 runs on Android 8.1 Oreo with ZenUI.
The camera options also depend upon the model chosen. The 3 and 4 GB RAM versions make do with a 13 MP sensor coupled with a 5 MP lens, alongside an 8 MP sensor on the front.
