ASUS ZenFone 3 Deluxe Review: Unlocked Android With 6GB RAM And 64GB Storage


ASUS ZenFone 3 Deluxe: 64GB Of Storage, 6GB Of RAM And A Lot Of Style

ASUS launched an array of products a few weeks back at its Zenvolution event in New York City. Among them was the gorgeous ZenBook 3 Ultrabook, the convertible Transformer 3, and an assortment of Android-based smartphones that carried ZenFone 3 branding. The four ZenFone 3 models that launched included the entry-level ZenFone 3 Laser, a 5.5” ZenFone 3 Deluxe, a 5.7” ZenFone 3 Deluxe, and a flagship 5.7” ZenFone 3 Deluxe Special Edition, which packs Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 821 SoC.

The specifications, build materials, and pricing for the various ZenFone 3 phones that launched are all different. The ZenFone 3 Laser is a $199 phone, which the 5.7” ZenFone 3 Deluxe Special Edition commands a loft $799. The 5.7” ZenFone 3 Deluxe that we’ll be showing you here, however, hits somewhat of a sweet spot in our opinion. As you’ll see in the spec table below, the 5.7” ZenFone 3 Deluxe is packing some serious heat, which competes favorably with some of today’s best smartphones. But its price is far more palatable at $499 - $599 (depending on capacity), unlocked. Take a look...

ASUS has done a nice job with the ZenFone 3 Deluxe’s packaging. Even the dark-blue box looks premium, and as you open the compartments, all of the accessories and documentation are presented in a neat, and clean – almost Zen-like – manner. Along with the phone itself, ASUS includes a ZenEar S headset (with Mic), that supports Hi-res audio, a USB-C 2.0 cable, an ejector pin, a USB power adapter, and a lit pack and warranty card.
