Why so little attention to auto focus in selfie mode? Is this not game-breaking feature?

      Same rating as the venerable Nokia 8. Both 4.5/5. I'm going to buy this and prove haters wrong.

                Its priced at upper mid range with a flagship cpu and ram.
                Trully the best value phone in 2019.

                      "No high-end phone can remotely threaten the Zenfone's call time - the OnePlus 7 Pro comes closest at 34:24h, a good 10 hours short."

                      Hmm so how come the Zenfone's call time is listed at just 2 hours more than the OP7 Pro then? If it should really be about 44 hours, does that mean the overall battery score needs to be revised?

                        I wouldn't mind the less than stellar display (based on the numbers it performs like my Nexus 5 LCD display though the Nexus probably has better whites and more accurate colors) if only they have made it a 90Hz display.
                        Redmi K20 Pro/Poco F2 is only $400 with an OLED display but without a micro sd card slot, not sure between the two phones but they are indeed flagship killers

                          As someone that bought the Zenfone 3 deluxe due to the on paper specs. let me tell you that the software they ship is total garbage and this phone will receive little to nothing in the way of support from 1st or 3rd party devs and half of the time the drivers dont work correctly. Great phone on paper, abysmal in execution for anything other than its oobe.

                                  Wow the Zenfone's camera really destroyed the OnePlus 7 Pro's & Xiaomi Mi9's camera's. Its so much charper and cleaner!

                                    DantE O2, 29 May 2019are you a doctor? go search online and read for yourself ,Yup, you get ridiculous from using the phone while charging. From what I can see you've been doing it a lot.

                                    Those quoting other reviews that say it has 550-600cd/m2, you should know that measurement equipment varies and comparation of different phones on the same site is always the best. Maybe the sites that have the Zen 6 at 570cd/m2 have other phones at 700cd/m2. Or maybe the gsmarena sample was defective, but I wouldn't count on it.

                                    I know what I will do, though. If it doesn't at least come close to my 4 year old Moto X Play (620cd/m2 on gsmarena), I'll return it. The X Play's camera seems at least as good, if not better in daylight. Also, the display contrast is rated at 1500 on gsmarena. So why should I downgrade? Apps work fine, battery is still ok. The bezels seem the only downside to my 4 year old phone that I got for almost half the price of the Zen 6.
