Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 hands-on review

10 May 2018
The ZenFone Max Pro is here to make a stand. This time, ASUS is taking the fight to Xiaomi, with a feature-packed device that should make even the demanding users happy. Whether it's an 18:9 display, a Snapdragon 636 processor, dual rear cameras, and a massive 5000mAh battery - it's got it. The ZenFone Max Pro is also an Android One device that comes with a stock build of Android 8.1 out of the box and a promise of timely updates.

sinto, 09 Aug 2018I will go for xiaomi still because of infrared.Infrared is cool. I used it ONCE on my Redmi Note 3 and it worked great. But then I did only use it once. It's like a useful gimmick. Hey friends look I control my TV with my phone and they're like yeah that's cool. Then they go home and I pick up the Logitech Harmony remote...

            Google cam can be easily installed on the asus (stock oreo) which makes the Max pro a complete killer VS the note5 pro. Photo become from almost rubbish to completely awesome

                          Anonymous, 11 May 2018Same here. I've been waiting the nokia 7+ for toooooooo lo... moreI bought the Asus zenfone max pro m1 instead of Nokia 7plus.

                          Nokia 7plus is very buggy with its Dual 4g sims, problems with headphone jack, low speaker volume, smaller battery, no dedicated SD memory slot, and more expensive. Only good advantage is 2 x optical zoom.

                                  Awpi, 22 Jul 2018Hey i heard this phone doesn't support fast charging (despi... moreIt will still charge at limited rate of charging not beyond 2000 mili amps even with Qualcomm Quick charge 3.0 it doesn't go beyond 2000 millions amps, it hovers around 1700-1850 miliamps. So no matter which charger you try, Asus has already limited it's charging rate. Might be for the longitivity of battery cycles, as fast charging can actually take a lot of toll on the performance of battery life with amount of heat generated while fast charging. Either way you won't find yourself charging this device that often, it's really good with screen on time time.
