That wasn’t on my radar, but the same point that kinda keeps me away from the Sony that I’d really like to like otherwise applies to the zenfone as well: really short update cycles. The zenfone even more so, as the Sony is just about to be released while the zenfone is already available for almost a year. I tend to keep my phones longer, so that really is a factor.
Zenfone 10 got released in july this year. I’d buy it on the spot if the software support was longer. The only phone in recent memory that has good specs and also looks decent
Ah, the 10 is already out… I checked the 9. So at least it’ll be one more year of updates, but it still just is really not much for a device that’s 850 €.
Is the Asus Zenfone available in your region ? If yes, its a pretty compact and feature rich phone.

Zenfone 10 just came out. It should get updates for longer than Sony. 2 years OS and 4 years security.
Asus just quit the phone market, closed their site and application, you can not ever unlock your bootloader anymore. Zenfone are dead.looks false?
