                  Desire would be Zenfone 3 Deluxe that offers a highly capacity memory and Unlimited would be Zenfone 3 Max that offers humongous battery capacity just like their previous devices the Zenfone Deluxe that offered 256GB of memory with 4GB of RAM that made em the first 4GB RAM smartphone in the world and Zenfone Max that offered 5000mAh battery which so far the largest battery capacity that ever implanted in smartphone (with quality unlike those Chinese maker who just make phone with battery but drain fast)

                    Zenfone 3 coming soon...soon Zenfone 2 will be abandoned just like Zenfone first Generation.

                    Don't expect too much of ASUS, ASUS just want "shut up and take customer money" and then totally helpless in customer service like in ZenTalk.

                      now ppl like MAX phone. No more Intel that a good new, it will be more friendly for developer, more custom rom. Asus phone doesn't come with too many bloatware.

                        AnonD-402029, 18 May 2016if zenfone 3 highest model use helio x25 and the other lowe... moreHelio X25 is exclusive to Meizu Pro 6. And ASUS isnt stupid to put MTK Chipset to highest flagship smartphone. And ASUS not same as Xiaomi.

                          Its a phone with glass or ceramic back, metallic finish, and AMOLED display. That was easy to decipher. So, what now? I can also see the rear fingerprint scanner. The specs is also very predictable. Well, it is very good looking phone indeed based on the teaser. I hope it priced reasonably and perform well.

                            So, you need to lower down your expectation a little as not a lot of company possess the technology for dual camera.

                            It will be great if they manage to come out something cheaper than Xiaomi and Lenovo with SD820.

                              Asus phones without intel soc will be something awesome.
                              I expected nothing less than SD650/652, please learn from your mistake during the Zenfone 2.

                                Intel has killed off the mobile SoCs so now ASUS phones will start getting better without the pos inside them.

                                  Wow! Just wooooow! Can't wait!

                                      RC255, 18 May 2016First off; I wouldn't get too excited by the 'Zenvolution... moreI am also not getting too excited about this Zenvolution. No dual camera (the new trend in smartphone-based camera technology) and the resolution? I doubt it will be even high resolution much less with AMOLED tech. See my recent post above for details.

                                        From what I can see (pausing at the 28s) point in ASUS' promotion video, there will be NO dual camera offered by ASUS in any of the upcoming ZenFone 3 models, something I was hoping for in anticipation. Dual camera (lenses / sensors) is the latest smartphone-based camera technology to offer considerably enhanced photographic and videographic performance quality. Dual camera tech is already being offered by LG Electronics (Korea) and Huawei (P9) and the technology is here and now. Further, I read somewhere there will only be a 1280 x 720 resolution. Really? Evolution to revolution to become Zenvolution? Come on! We won't know factually until May 30th, but, these videos already provide hints as to what to expect.

                                        It seems like I will be waiting for yet another generation flagship to be released. I may pass this time around to upgrade my LG G4 to a ZenFone, which is a bit unfortunate. I like ASUS products and currently own their ZenPad 8 (Z580CA). It has a beautiful high resolution screen, USB Type-C charging, etc. I am (was) hoping the new ZenFone 3 might replace my LG G4 smartphone, but may not be this time around unless ASUS works some magic over the next 12 days prior to pre-Computex formal announcements. I buy a smartphone for 'ín the shirt pocket' camera experience as much as I do for screen quality, performance, and basic functionality. The camera was one prime factor that drove me to buy the LG G4 in the first place, having one of the best smart phone-based camera technologies in the industry to date. Bright lens @ f1.8, laser focus, 4K video capable, etc. Anyway, we will see how 2016 shakes out as smart phones evolve. Apple should be introducing their dual camera in the the flagship iPhone 7 in the fall.
