Also, I think needless to say that SD 888 is a poor choice as it's known for being a hot a not a battery efficient. All newest generation devices on SD 888 have a noticeable worse battery life than previous ones on SD 865. In my opinion SD 870 would be the best choice for new devices.

Anonymous, 13 May 2021Compact Phone of the year?? i would say it is the compact ANDROID of the year, the iPhone 12 mini does some things better like photo quality (to an extent) and OS optimization.

[deleted post]Lol, don't be too confident. The Sony has a periscope telephoto camera and Heat Suppression feature, so I'm still looking at it.

it is a half-half spec and features...
i wish 8 has no notch like the 8 flip...
i wish 8 flip has 3.5mm jack like the 8...
...
the 8 is almost there, but that hole on the screen will not be good for 21:9 movies, if it was moved further on the side, then it would hide on the black bars (landscape, top and bottom)... but for 16:9 videos, it will hide succesfully on the black bars (landscape, both sides)...
on hand, it would be similar to xperia 5iii at 68mm...
as for the pocket? mine can handle phones with 165mm height with some headroom... so the zenfone 8 can fit well, not that i am decided to put it on my pocket... but let us see if the "compact hype" is still alive... i used the think that the "compact" battle outcry is loud, but the soldiers are weak (iphone mini not outselling the regular size)... only time will tell...

In my opinion Asus missed out on a third phone in this segment.
The Zenfone 8 looks great for the price but not everyone will be comfortable with the 5.9" screen.
The flip model lacks some of the flagship features.
They should have launched Zenfone 8 pro with 6.7"-6.9" screen, 5000mAh battery, 65W wired charging like the ROG 5, dedicated 5x zoom module and better main camera sensor.

what a disappointment, i was hoping that the flagship Asus zenphone 8 flip to receive the audiophile dac from ROG5, but it turns out, nothing more than cpu update from last year zenphone 7 pro, also their camera has not been updated from last year, nor the camera can compete with 2020 best cameras (let alone 2021), such p40 pro, samsung 20 ultra, iphone 11 pro.
