ASUS surprised us today with the announcement of three new ZenFone 5 models. The ZenFone 5 and ZenFone 5 Lite were expected, but the ASUS ZenFone 5Z was a big surprise.
The 5Z looks to be an affordable powerhouse, packed with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 chipset, an all-screen Full HD+ 6.2-inch display, 6 GB of RAM, and 64 GB of storage space — all for around $500. Its specs and price place it in competition with phones like the OnePlus 5T.
The all-screen display features a notch at the top, similar to the Apple iPhone X. The Essential Phone has a much smaller notch, but ASUS appears to have taken design elements more from the iPhone X than or Android phones.
For $499 you'd be hard-pressed to find a device that beats these specs. It's got dual-cameras at the rear, a 3,300 mAh battery, dual-SIM, a microSD card expansion slot that can give you up to 2 TB more storage, Bluetooth 5.0, and 4K video recording. It's all packaged in just as beautiful a presentation as previous entries in the ASUS ZenFone line. It comes in two colors, Midnight Blue and Meteor Silver.
ASUS did not give specific details for when the phone would be available. Below you'll find the full list of ASUS ZenFone 5Z specs:
