ASUS has just announced its flagship Zenfone 7 series at an event in Taiwan. The Zenfone 7 and 7 Pro features a 6.67-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display with 90z refresh rate, HDR10+ support and DC dimming for flicker-free low-brightness operation.
Both new Zenfone 7 series smartphones comes with a motorised flip camera system which flips up 180-degrees, allowing the same main camera to be used for selfies. That means we can also take ultra wide-angle selfies.
The company says that the flip camera has a new, 40% smaller, yet more powerful motor that has more than double the torque. It adjusts at steps of 0.5 degress compared to the 2 degrees on the Zenfone 6. Futher, it can memorize your three favourite flip positions for quick angle switching.
It has a side-mounted fingerprint scanner that’s integrated with the power button. Both have two SIM card slot and a dedicated microSD card slot.
