It's almost perfect for me. The only complaint I have with it is the metal frame instead of a plastic one. Love the fact that it has a headphone jack for my high-end earphones.

OK, been rocking this bad boi for some time now.
Build: Looks interesting, feels solid, back gets dirty, glass is easy to scratch.
Packaging: Charger and a case that is waaay too thick.
Display: Good colors, DC dimming.
Battery: Used to last a crazy amount of time. Like 2 days no problem, 3 if you use it less intensely. Lately my network started consuming A LOT of power for some reason.
Camera: Well, my old phone is iPhone 11, and it most definitely took better shots than Zenfone 9. Decent midrange photos, but nothing special. Gimbals are cool for video, though.
Headphone jack: Works well. Not having to stick Lithium-ion batteries in my ears feels great.
Software: Annoying bugs. Infrequent updates. Only 2 years support?! Main weak spot of the phone. At least they let you unlock the bootloader, so I hope there's some good ROMs in the future.
Summary: Sane feature set (unlike any other phone on the market), but it has a lot of quirks I wouldn't expect at the $800 price point. Would've probably sold 10x the numbers if they could tone down the specs and sell it for $4-500.

This is a great phone! If only more manufacturers made phones of this size. I am not need of such high specifications so it is a bit expensive for me.

I really want to like the Zenfone 9, but it is the most unreliable phone I've owned. Had the Zenfone 9 since Oct. 2022. The call quality is very poor. On regular basis, the callee complains about robotic voice usually after 2-5 minutes call in noisy environments - i.e., supermarkets, traffic, open office etc. Other weird bugs are happening e.g., touch controls not working, pocket calls, etc. The front camera sucks big time in dimmed light. The rear camera shots are often blurry on the first few tries.
