A compact Android flagship from Asus is on the way.

Almost certainly my next phone. Snap888 and 120Hz screen, can't expect miracles from the battery and I don't, but I will buy it.

      Reading comments about people wanting small phones while im trying to decide should i buy the huawei mate 20 x😅

        notafanboy, 18 Mar 2021Zenfone 7 & 7 Pro had both 3x telephoto & ultrawide.It was also 6.67 inches screen. Zenfone 6 with 6.4 inches screen had 2 cameras. I don't think you can put 3 cameras in 5.9 inches screen phone. In normal setup it's possible, but not on a flipcam. Even if you do, you'll have to compromise on other specs like headphone jack or battery.

          Phone with 5.5 to 6 inch iscreen is welcomed. Thank u ASUS.

              It's about time Android-world should restart thinking about us small-hands people. They should make smaller (5.5", 5.6") phones concurrent with 6+" phones. Battery-life should be given utmost importance in this regards.

                Better start saving money then. Who knows when another mini might land.

                  Im so dissapointed with the 20:9 display ratio...

                    The mini is a welcome model but the problem is, 5.9 inch cannot exactly can be called a mini. It could've been like 5.5 at most otherwise it isn't a mini

                      [deleted post]And that's what I get for reading too fast...my bad. Lol

                        notafanboy, 18 Mar 2021yeah, most likely no telephoto though... Just main + ultraw... moreIt definitely won't have Telephoto, because it's a FlipCam, and it makes sense to include an Ultrawide instead of Telephoto.

                          About damned time! Keeping fingers crossed more manufacturers will follow, I'm so sick with those >6.5" paddles everywhere, there are literally zero Android compact flagships at the moment.

                            Hope it keeps the audio from rog 5

                              salarx, 18 Mar 2021It will have SD888, can't say about the headphone jack... moreyeah, most likely no telephoto though... Just main + ultrawide. Disappointing if that's the case, I would prefer main camera + telephoto.

                                Very2 interesting, expect the slim bezel, flat screen n proper cooling system to hold the Dragon.
                                Good Luck ASUS!

                                    smaller screen gives a compact feel 😇

                                        If it keeps the flip-up camera for the Mini model, this phone will be the best compact phone of 2021
