ASUS Zenfone 3 Max 5.5: 5.5-inch Display, 16MP Camera & Snapdragon CPU

0

ASUS Zenfone 3 Max is definitely one of the best smartphones that you can get from the company and recently, ASUS has unveiled a new variant of the Zenfone 3 Max in where you can get a bigger display, a new processor, and a better camera. Yes, this is still the Zenfone 3 Max but now features a better hardware.

 

ASUS Zenfone 3 Max 5.5

  • 5.5-inch full HD IPS display
  • Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 processor
  • 2GB/3GB of RAM
  • 32GB of expandable storage
  • 16-megapixel rear camera with LED flash
  • 8-megapixel front camera
  • Dual SIM
  • LTE
  • WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, A-GPS, Fingerprint scanner
  • Android Marshmallow 6.0 with ZenUI 3.0
  • 4100mAh battery

 

The noticeable physical difference about the smartphone aside from its size is that the Zenfone 3 Max 5.5 now features a capacitive button. The bigger brother also brought back the laser autofocus which was not seen on the 5.2-inch variant. Compared to the 30 days of standby time of the ASUS Zenfone 3 Max 5.2, the bigger variant has a longer standby time of 33 days. I know, it’s weird, this is the bigger one but it does have a longer standby time. But don’t worry because the 5.2-inch variant can still last longer when using it on Wi-Fi.

 

The ASUS Zenfone 3 Max 5.5 doesn’t have a price and release date in the Philippines but I do hope that ASUS Philippines will be bringing this smartphone in the country soon.
