Does this have DAC? Or hi-res audio?
I'm looking for a replacement for my LG phone.

Just ordered this phone!
I was going to wait for Xperia 5III, but I don't think the camera system is worth $300.
I just wish it had metal or carbon fiber back, or plastic, but that's far too much to ask for

SOURAV SIL, 17 May 2021Absolutely perfect smartphone... We are waiting for it too ... moreCut it out already, this phone has a bunch of compromises: no SD card, no optical zoom... It doesn't even have wireless charging, a shame for a flagship nowadays. It's price can be justified by the quality, but overheating and terrible nighttime shots make me doubt it...

cvq, 17 May 2021Sure. Prices are insane. Phones software and computing pow... moreThe whole idea is to pack all the functionality in a single device which fits in your pocket.
Yes, obviously with a desktop/laptop for this price you can do real work.
With a smartphone you can do work on the go accepting the inconvenience of the small display and the touchscreen keyboard.
As for the camera, you are correct: with a dslr you can take better quality photos because of the bigger sensor. But are you ok with taking your dslr everywhere with you? I have one and take it only on trips/vacations with me.
As for the phone, finally a company decided to make somewhat compact device (shorter than 150mm) with decent hardware and 3.5 mm jack. The announced price is still lower than flagships of most other brands.

Dan, 16 May 2021Looks great but it costs $750 in my country. I have the mo... moreSure. Prices are insane. Phones software and computing power still lacking desktop capabilities. At least they could try implement usable desktop mode. Only argument is camera. Else any 150 buck smartphone is usable...But even camera argument is fishy, paying 700-1000$ bucks for software made junkie camera is nonsense. In most cases casual 400$ camera can do more. Mega junkie supa dupa flagship smartphone costs 1200$. For that money you can buy decent 120-150$ smartphone 400-500 $ casual real optics camera and still you have money for almost decent gaming laptop with r7-4800h, 1650TI gpu..

Close to perfect:
- Small
- Good specs
What would make me buy it:
- Add camera pack like in nokia 8.5.
- Add 5000 battery and sacrifice thickness
I am delaying the buy decision because there is no packed flagships below 6"

Mobilemaster, 13 May 2021Here is what I think. They removed some features, so the ph... moreYa i think they put the sd card slot on the flip since it caters to vloggers who shoot a lot of hi res videos so that seems to be a sensible decision. Although putting a headphone jack would have made it a better deal. It almost seems like they r crippling the sales of the bigger zenfone flip and banking all thier hopes on the normal zenfone 8. Maybe this would be the last flip phone from asus.

SweeeTy, 15 May 2021Nice phone, at last a compact phone with great specs. But... moreThats true at that price the s21 is a no brainer. It has better cameras, better software and overall samsung have the best trade in deals with good discounts for most of it. Only isssue is lack of a headphone jack. But apart from that for the pricing in ur region the s21 seems to be a better pick.
