Editorial report
Asus Zenfone 12 Ultra technical sheet
The Asus Zenfone 12 Ultra suits anyone looking for a high-performance Android phone with a fast display and optical zoom. Its trade-offs are its weight and thickness, while the rear main camera’s aperture is less bright than that of most phones of its time.
The Snapdragon 8 Elite, paired with 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage in this version, puts performance among the best of its time. Its AnTuTu result is 2,702,580. The 6.78-inch LTPO AMOLED display runs at 144 Hz, among the highest refresh rates of its time, and its 2,500-nit peak brightness is better than most. A telephoto camera offers 3x optical zoom, among the highest of its time, and video recording reaches 8K at 24 fps.
The 5,500 mAh battery supports 65 W wired charging and 15 W wireless charging, both better than what most phones of its time offer. The phone also has IP68 protection and runs Android 15. At 220 g and 8.9 mm thick, it is heavier and thicker than most phones of its time. The rear main camera’s f/1.9 aperture is also less bright than that of most.
With a NeoScore of 8.5 and performance among the best of its time, the Zenfone 12 Ultra is a strong fit for anyone prioritizing power, a fluid display, and optical zoom. Its weight, thickness, and rear main camera aperture are the trade-offs to weigh.
