Happydog1, 25 Feb 2022I currently own this phone, love it, and still use it today... moreI happened to come into possession of an Alcatel 3V which has very similar specs. The screen is only 6.7" but it's lighter and faster. I once had a new Asus Zenfone 3 Ultra briefly but returned it because it was the wrong color. I kinda wish I had kept it.

        I currently own this phone, love it, and still use it today. It's 2022 and it's still an excellent phone for me. The size of the phone display is huge and exactly what I love. I can't find a phone close to this size on the market today. I have it highly optimized - fully rooted with Magisk, TWRP, fully debloated, Android 7.1, bootloader locked, and it passes Safety Net checks. It's a head turner to be sure. It takes photos that are amazingly sharp and bright. It has all of the features that I love in a phone including a 3.5 mm headphone jack, dual sim slots (use 256GB micro sim card in 1 slot), front fingerprint reader, and more. I have a replacement screen should I need it later. I will run my phone happily into the future.

                              This has been one of the best phones that I have had thus far. Even with the phone being best phone in 2017 and us going in 2020, this phone still gives a lot of phones a run for their money. Great battery life and the video display is bananas. I will miss this phone soon as I go to the Asus ROG 2 phone. But this phone was something to turn heads with all the time.

                                    Hughtash, 28 May 2018Contrary to specifications on gsmarena.com, ZU680KL has dua... moreIt supports a micro-SD card. I have a 256 GB micro-SD card in mine.

                                      I have been on the lookout for the second edition of this phone. I am refusing to buy any of the newer phones in this size category because none of them actually matches this phone in design. I am briefly going to touch on the aspects of the phone that are important to me.

                                      1. The size: 6.8". This is a true 6.8" phone. You are not shortchanged in any way. There is no notch, no holes, no tear-drop... none of such nonsense which eats away from the screen real estate. You get all of the 6.8" display as your screen for your immersive viewing pleasure. Even though I love on-screen soft buttons, the back and recent apps buttons are capacitive buttons on the bottom bezel of the phone, leaving you all of the 6.8" screen for content consumption or for creativity. No compromises at all.

                                      2. The bezels. While bezel-less phones are the current trend, I'm actually in love with the bezels of this phone. The top bezel houses the front-facing camera, the LED notification light, and the earpiece. The bottom bezel holds the home button and the two capacitive buttons for the back-action and for your recent apps. This is a very sensible, mature, and traditional design,

                                      3. The 16:9 aspect ratio. A huge factor in my reluctance to buy any of the newer competitors to this phone (such as the Huawei Make 20 X and the Honor Note 8) is the departure in their design from the 16:9 aspect ratio. These days smartphones are narrower. They are designed with 18:9, 18.5:9; 18.7:9, 19:9; and 19.5:9 aspects ratios. Meanwhile, most videos are shot in 16:9 aspect ratio. The implication is that you don't really take advantage of the full screen when you watch a 16:9 aspect ration video on those narrow phones. They tell you that the reason for making the phones narrow is to enhance one-handed use of the phone, but once a phone comes with a screen that's 6.5" or bigger, it is obviously a device intended for two-hand use. TVs and computer screens are still being built with a 16:9 aspect ratio.

                                      4. Volume: This phone is loud when the volume is at the maximum setting. I love it. I will not mind it if the second edition version of the phone comes with louder speakers, but it is hard to find a phone that beats this phone in the quality and loudness of its stereo speakers.

                                      5. The camera takes good photos and videos, both the back and the front camera. The cameras are also packed-full of options in the settings for you to choose from.

                                      6. Battery life. This, of course, depends on how you use your phone. The phone has a 4600 mAh battery. Certainly, I wish Asus had equipped the phone with a bigger battery. However, you can be sure of getting a full work-day from a single charge.

                                      7. It supports dual SIM, but its either two SIMs or one SIM and a Micro-SD card. It is always better when a phone is able to support two SIM cards AND a micro-SD card, so you don't have to choose between a second SIM card and a micro-SD.

                                      8. It has a 3.5 mm headphone jack!

                                      9. The overall build quality is premium. It doesn't feel or look cheap. I love the aluminum body. I'm happy it does not have a glass back.

                                      I don't care much about wireless charging or IP68 certification (waterproofing a phone is not a big deal for me). If I have to choose between loudness and clarity of a phone's volume, on the one hand, and waterproofing the phone, on the other hand, better sound quality will always be my choice.

                                      I wish very strongly that ASUS will release a newer version of the Zenfone 3 Ultra, but without getting rid of the functional bezels and without changing the aspect ratio of the screen. Stay away from those stupid notches and holes. Give us a bigger battery, louder speakers, a faster processor, true two-SIM card support (not either a second SIM card or a micro-SD card), more RAM, and please please please do not change the aspect ratio. Retain the 3.5 mm headphone jack and support for expandable storage.
