I like it very Much, But my only problem is it very often doesn't focus, I keep changing between front and rear until it begins focusing properly, I WONDER if there is some way of reseting the focusing, or of solving the problem?

AnonD-650863, 07 Mar 2017I am having the same dilemma... I have never hold an ultra,... moreAlthough the price of Mi Max is good. Some of the reviews on main sites were a bit hit and miss with some sites saying great build others saying not. Asus is built very well. Main complaint of Asus is bloatware, Mi Max has poor OS implementation apparently (I have no experience), Asus has really good dual speakers, I think Mi Max has 2 grills but 1 speaker. Screen is great on both. Also I am a sucker for something a bit different. As with probably most of Europe this phone isn't on sale so is very different.
I know some people complain, spec vs price is too high for the phone. However its only slightly slower than mainstream phones and in UK its £300-500 cheaper than flagship phones (Iphone 7 Plus, Samsung Galxy Edge) but it isn't far off their performance, but tbh I wouldn't notice much of a difference anyway as I have better things to do with my time, hehe

Having used this phone for 2 months I still love it, most things work well but there are 2 things that bother me a little.
1. When using the camera in daylight, it is great, in low light it isn't very good unless you select Super Resolution which is pretty good. Unfortunately this isn't selected automatically for you like with my old Samsung Note 4 (and I assume some other mainstream phones), so the photo taking process is a little bit slower. I think that Asus need to work a little on the photo app.
2. Bluetooth seems a little weak/temperamental. At the moment I can't connect to my car :-( It connects to most of my items but its a bit inconvenient and I am trying to find a solution. Again I hope that Asus will address this with their next update.
Hope this helps someone.

This is actually my dream phone. i really love this phone, the specifications are beast! like if will also watch the videos on YT on the comparisons of the phablets, this is the No.1 on all the phones out there at the moment.
if you're a gamer, strongly recommend this phone, even for people who loves watching movies and streaming, this one is the King!

Either a Mate 9 or this Zenfone 3 Ultra. I know I could do better with the cameras of the V20 and the Mate 9 but the overall experience is different with the Zenfone 3 Ultra. Its look is unique, the speakers are great and the camera is also great. The screen looks fantastic as what reviews are saying. I think when I already sold my V20, I will buy this phone already.

AnonD-629006, 06 Jan 2017It'd true. Silver only for the Philippines. You can order ... moreThanks @BluSleeper. Managed to buy the grey version on eBay UK and a friend brought it over to Philli. Grey's the best colour for me, and seems to be less slippery to hold than the others.
Great bit of kit in general. I've come from a LG G4 (superb phone + camera) but the Ultra beats it in almost everything ...except the camera + no IR blaster. Battery lasts me an average of 3 days, speakers are superb for music as well as speaker calls (not really understanding everyone's complaints about the speakerphone), fast response for all apps and perfect sized screen for everything. Admittedly, it is quite heavy to hold one handed. If anyone likes big screen phones and doesn't mind it being heavy I can't recommend it enough tbh.

This phone isn't for everyone as its huge, but quality is very good. It just depends on your individual needs and budgets, everyone needs to decide what is for them.

I am waiting too.
