If it had microSD + wireless charging + USB 3.x, it would be a no-brainer to replace my Galaxy S10e. Or if it had 512GB or 1TB internal, I could live without the SD. I can't downgrade from 640GB (128GB + 512GB SD) to a mere 256GB. And having lived with wireless charging for 5 years, it would be tough to give that up. Unfortunately, the Xperia 1 III is the only phone that has all the features I want (3.5mm, SD, wireless charging, USB 3.x), although it's a lot taller than I'd like. Zenfone 8 looks like a great device otherwise, and the ideal physical size for me. So close to being my solution. D'oh!

I had a 3 zoom with high res.
Now every phone sounds like crap.
iPhones like I'm using now are too crispy.
My Samsung a21s sounds dead.
Sony's cost way too much.

Too expensive and buggy, in a world of samsung galaxy s21's and people not using headphones. Asus should do a midranger with headphone jack and easily compete with iphone SE

Best compact phone, 08 Feb 2022why would anyone bother with another brand? Oh yeah because... moreDisagree. Asus phones use to have the 'value' ring going for them nailing that niche compromise and offering great performance and features, but that no longer the case. And they messed up with nearly all iteration of Zenphone. Nearly all has hardware defects, starting withe Zenfone 3 family with the infamous light bar on the screen... Then, there's the support. They would stop the development cycle once the time is up (pretty prompt and accurate about it as well), whether the last release has serious bugs or not - it would just stop. Service centre and part... Oh boy, better hope you never have an accident with your phone.
And here comes to the worst part - Asus can brag about one international version of their phone with LTE/5G band support all their want. The fact is, they have highly limited carrier support for VoLTE and Wifi calling. It renders even this portion of hardware pretty useless.. At least OnePlus could force the feature on none support carrier. Honestly, I can no longer justify buying one with it given cost. ROG still have a proposition for gamers. I don't see where Zenfone has any more at that given cost.

why would anyone bother with another brand? Oh yeah because they're probably Apple zealots or blindly buying the same trash year after year because they cant think.
Asus have done an amzing job with the Zenfone 8, so glad I bought one.
