[@vladavram9209]

Agreed. Man, I don't know when everyone became photographers. The specs on the lowest mid-rangers (I know, an oxymoronic expression) will get you a really nice quality photo. That is, if all you're planning to do with it is to post it on social media or keep it in your phone. Because not many people will look if it's incredibly sharp/crisp, bright, dark, clear or anything... for a shot you took on your phone. Now sure, some people want to use it as a legit camera, and I understand why they want and really need the highest specs. But for most people, it doesn't really matter. This is why I usually don't care about the camera review part on a phone review, because I know they're all at the very least decent. Hell, I have 64mp with 4k60 video on a 200$ phone. So yea... This zenfone is still a beast for me

If you're hesitating to get this phone, my advice is DON'T!!!! The phone is really, great not much to complain UNTIL it bricks with NO REASON (google ramdump Zenfone 8 issue). I might be one of the unlucky ones but Asus hasn't addressed it (it's quite widespread) and at least a warning would have been nice (first reports of that is from mid 2021 and still nothing). And opposed to any other kind of break, your phone is dead with no possiblity to get your data back. So yeah, if you want a ticking time bomb, be my guest. In the meantime I won't be buying any Asus hardware

[@khmerkandal121]

@@ahsan.v8 i don't share this opinion, having a three/five times or 10 times optical zoom is sometimes helpful and Huawei Zoom on the P40 Pro+ or Samsung S21 Ultra is very good but yes *if necessary* I also think the zoom camera could be dropped, however what in my opinion can not be dropped it's the wide angle lens, even if the photos are complete bad quality, you are at least able to do wide-angle shots, and even the worst wide angle camera is there better than using Panorama Mode

[@harshlarose6670]

@@ahsan.v8 Yeah, good software to actually use a camera's resolution properly will be always more efficient than a zoom camera in terms of cost. Too bad Samsung doesn't have the best camera software, for the midrange devices at least.

[@ashutoshmishra8512]

@@ahsan.v8 Nah the ideal setup is 3 camera system with a main one, a 2x or 2.5x telephoto , and an ultrawide with autofocus(for macro). I know why you dont want a zoom lens on phone and yeah the 60x 100x zooms are not practical but a smaller zoom lens can click better potraits. The same effect can't be manipulated by zooming the main camera lens 2x digitally. I have personally experienced the 2x lens potraits turn out to be better than 2x digital zoom potrait on main cam. It seems like the 2x lens aperture and field of view play a role in framing the potrait shots.

Scientists will say it was a global illusion. Beaware - Jesus will never walk in flesh again. After WW3 - rise of the “ man of peace“ from the East = Antichrist - the most powerful, popular, charismatic and influential leader of all time. Many miracles will be attributed to him. He will imitate Jesus in every conceivable way. Don`t trust „pope“ Francis = the False Prophet - will seem to rise from the dead - will unite all Christian Churches and all Religions as one. One World Religion = the seat of the Antichrist. Benedict XVI is the last true pope - will be accused of a crime of which he is totally innocent.

💯 It's frustrating when people say the headphone jack is going away. If you do anything with audio professionally or personally then you probably have some high quality headphones. It'd be nice to use them with your smartphone without a pointless dongle.

[@Diptendu_Kr]

@@dbjungle yes, once apple do something even if it's dumb and mind fu**ing everyone just blindly follows that. That's most frustrating. Another example is the removal of charger from the box.

[@arnox4554]

Yeah, unless wireless headphone/earbud manufacturer somehow magically find a way to deliver wired quality sound with no latency and infinite battery, that jack is not going to go away, nor should it. I mean, I get it. Wireless 'phones are very convenient, but they still can't replace wired entirely yet.

[@Diptendu_Kr]

@@arnox4554 nowadays companies saying about going green, reducing carbon emission and shit, but let me tell you there is nothing greener than using a product as long as you can. That's where those wired earphones/headphones shines. A good quality will last you minimum 5 years some even 10 or more. But these wireless shits are going to die in 2 years or 3 max there is no denying of that. Hypocrisy at it's finest!!!

[@FFn101]

@@Diptendu_Kr have you heard of planned obsolescence ? The cheaper wired headphones don't last that long.

If the companies really tried they could make a product that would last way too long but they will loose there livelihood so they don't

There's one great point in favor of this phone that you didn't mentioned. It has a DAC (digital audio converter) that converts your digital HIRES audio service (e.g. Qobuz or Tidal) to analog output: this means that you can hook up your audio jack to a high end headset or to a HIFI system or aux car input. The DAC manages to read up to 384 kHz / 32-bit PCM files or streams: this means that this little phone can act as a stunning hires audio streamer. THAT'S the reason for still having a jack audio... A part from this, Great review, as always. :)

[@ujjwal7502]

[@Lintukoko]

@thatCapN Crunch I'm sure you can always forgo using the case they provide for something heavily detailed (though probably not like their teen+20-something-oriented ROK phones). Or the Pixel 6 might serve you well. It's ~US $500 and about as loaded at that price point as anything I can think of... I keep looking at the xperia phones... but they're out of my budget for now (still $800 for the 5 III)... I don't like Samsung's photo processing OR Apple's for totally different reasons (Samsung oversaturates and makes photos lose nuanced details in doing so as they process the info; it can make painting-like vivid sunsets, but they don't look authentic). iPhone does that with skin tones and facial features where suddenly people who are neutral tone and not richly pigmented are golden and tan with color bursting out but mostly stays neutral for scenery... my issue is that in trying to look oh so sharp it does this oddball crayon-like edging, especially noticeable when there are shadows behind or under that it tries to lighten when there's any detail and the color is pretty uniform but (take plant leaves) might have some brighter spots from light... iPhone cameras (well, the top iPhones) have a lot of potential but the software screws over details of such weird things that it turns a lot of pics into something that looks like it was in a coloring book, not a real object, because of the fake edges and odd shadow handling/oversharpening things that lack features in the real world view of it. Sony stores the raw files and has solid sensors... I think they use Carl Zeiss optics, too, which my most beloved cell phone of all did and it had pictures better than "top" phones 5 years newer just because of the legit lenses and optical zoom (I miss the sound of the thicker but so worth it camera when it would do its zoom down tiny bit by tiny bit and save it as a full file unlike all of these that compress everything so much).
