    Excellent phone and quite a surprise. If you want compact, this the phone to beat in Android.

          Nice, by why buttons are taking so much space,
          Will you be able to mount it on a bike? looks like many mounts won't work, there is just not space to catch a phone.
          I wish they would move power button on second side or something :(

You can toss your iPad somewhere and forget about it and it'll still have charge after ages. Only other device I've heard it does that are Nintendo devices, I think it was Switch. Meanwhile, most Android devices, not just phones are notorious for just randomly eating itself to death for no apparent reason in standby. Because why not.

I use iPhone 8 and it has really tiny battery, but can last more than two days in standby. My personal S20FE with more than twice the battery can last exactly the same time. I'd say the standby time of iPhone is in fact excellent. In the first day after charging it does not lose more than 5 percent on standby. Networks are both the same.

                                I do like that feature rich compact phones are still on the market. But at this price point I find discounted Xperia 5 III much better option in many ways. Of course Asus have newer chip, and some other advances. And after discount for Zenfone it will be great deal.

                                  This helps a lot. Look at S22, samsung decided to make it 7.3mm at cost of larger battery.
                                  Ace 2 is smaller (14cm), narrower and slimmer with 4500mAh. Just save some spaces because smaller cameras.

                                  Nothing wow here. And battery would be smaller if the device had the Qi coil.

                                    Another could be Epic phone let down by a sub par camera module!! Images are worse than their current gaming phone.. WHY

                                      @Gsmarena Phone has a dedicated jack, you could've done your audio measurement, you did it for a recent review for one without it even..

                                        No disrespect but I can't believe GSMArena rating it above 4. It's only 30watts charging! That's a 3 year old technology! It's extremely disappointing. That's the reason Asus phones disappear after launch 😂. Please look into all the aspects and then rate. I'd give it 2 out of 5
