ASUS has been spotted by the fast hands of the internet about their next compact flagship phone. There’s new information about the next ASUS Zenfone, the ASUS Zenfone 9, via a demo video that has been removed.
TechGoing (Opens in a new tab) He grabbed the video, which was “unintentionally shared by the Taiwanese factory” on YouTube before it was removed. The video, which looks like an official announcement of the phone, showed the details of what the new product could be.
But since the video has been removed, take all this information with caution, as this likely isn’t the final design or specification of the phone.
The new ASUS Zenfone 9 will come with a 5.9-inch screen. Another noteworthy detail about the display is the front-facing camera. During the video, we learned that the screen will be 120Hz and that the new ASUS Zenfone 9 will use the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chip. This is the same chip used in the announced Asus ROG Phone 6 (Opens in a new tab).
As the video continues, we get to see more of what Asus has put into the phone to make it stand on its own. One of the first bits we learned is the new ASUS Zenfone 9 that comes with a 3.5mm headphone jack. The phone will also come with a fingerprint sensor on the side and a feature called “ZenTouch”.
While the fingerprint sensor is located inside the phone’s power button, the new ZenTouch feature comes with its own “smart switch” on the right side of the device. This allows you to operate your thumb via the touch button which will scroll you up or down the page.
Looking at the back of the camera, the ASUS Zenfone 9 will use the Sony IMX766. It also includes a hybrid 6-axis stabilizer. The video showed a scenario where you can pair this with the “Smart Backpack Mount” to record still videos.
While there are still some unknown variants with this new phone, which may be one of the best Android devices at this price, we’ll have to wait for Asus to make an official statement about the Zenfone 9. As the video ends, ASUS has revealed four colors the new phone will come with: white, red, black and blue. .
