When I finally began to note my thoughts on the new Asus Zenfone 12 Ultra, I couldn’t help but feel a creeping sense of déjà vu. Then I checked last year’s Zenfone 11 Ultra Review And sighed by relief that I have not yet gone completely bananas from reviewing phones to living. I thought I had considered this phone before because I basically have it. Between the increasingly obvious similarities between Asus’ Rog and Zenfone series, I might even have written about it two or even three times now.
Cutting straight to the point, not much has changed since 2024’s zenfone, at least when it comes to the hardware. Yes, it’s faster Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Processor, ESIM support and some nice color options (I’m a big fan of Sage Green), but the battery, charging, camera (save an improved gimbal), viewing, and the rest are unchanged from last year.
