Oof, no telelens whatsoever? THat's tough @ €800. People get used to using zoom zoom and with good reasons!
The main camera looks to be better then the one in the zenfone 8 and includes a gimbal! The housing for the camera's is a very nice design and way better then the ultra-budget look the predecessor had.

I wish you started to publish to thickness specs for every phone. One measurement that probably matches then manufacturer number that actually measures the thinnest part of the phone and another measurent that matches the engineering standard where thickness means how much space you would need between two glass planes to fit the item in between. That obviously requires measuring the camera lens, too.

So a telephoto camera need more stabilization than a primary camera which needs more than an UW. Also larger the sensor, lesser stabilization it requires. As for the size of the phone, S22 is also good for one handed purposes. When you use a phone for entertainment/gaming purposes, it needs some screen real estate. S22's display supports more screen refreshing frequencies which makes the display more power efficient while making it smoother.

Debatreyo, 04 Aug 2022What if this phone came out with the 6.1" panel used f... moreOnly if they increased the display size by minimizing the "chin", without any increase in overall dimensions of the phone. Making the phone any bigger will hinder one hand usability which is a main selling point.
As for telephoto, it will only make the phone bigger which again goes against the intended purpose. Also the gimbal shouldn't be wasted on a small telephoto camera. Instead, they could use the 1/1.33" Isocell HMX as main sensor, which produces 27mp images by default, which means rather good quality even at 3x digital zoom, not to mention even better if a crop from 108mp is used! Honestly, these 2x or even 3x 8mp or 10mp telephotos feel gimmicky in such case.
Also, they could probably make space for a microSD slot by making the phone slightly thicker, but that could be made unnoticeable by minimizing this rather unnecessarily big and weird looking camera bump. Phones with bigger and more number of camera sensors have less noticeable camera bump than this phone!

This price for that looking phone isn't acceptable to be honest.
Nothing phone has no chin all symmetrical from front half the price. This phone looks like came out in 2017 2018... This big chin??? Seriously? People dissed pixel3xl for that notch which has dual camera but now look at that thick usless chin on front and asking £700??

That's the common problem with these budget flagship where it can't get full fledged performance on everything, price is the main factor.

I owned a Zenfone 8 for ard 9months, sold it afterwards due to terrible front camera performance. Specifically speaking, low to no natural light selfie picture and video performance. Which is specifically not covered in all GSM reviews. There's a lotta folks out there that video calls their love ones at night, or even take night selfies in the pub with mates. For you folks, dont ever get a zenfone, its muddy and blurred looking like a 2014 phone, asked a youtube reviewer how was it at night. Yeah same exact setup as the zenfone 8, unacceptable. PS. Low light doesnt mean stepping away from an office window at daytime lol.
