Excitement is building as Asus has tantalizingly teased the upcoming Zenfone 12 Ultra, with its grand reveal set for February 6. Just before this much-anticipated event, a reliable tipster, Roland Quandt, has lifted the lid on the smartphone’s complete specifications, sharing promotional images and renders.
The leaked images reveal a device startlingly similar to the ROG Phone 9 Pro, with the only noticeable design difference being the repositioned flash module. Departing from the signature gaming aesthetics, the Zenfone 12 Ultra flaunts a sleek design in more understated color options.
In terms of features, the Zenfone 12 Ultra is reported to boast a stunning 6.78-inch display with a resolution of 2400×1080 pixels. This high-quality LTPO panel is expected to deliver a smooth visual experience with a variable refresh rate that peaks at 120 Hz but can ramp up to 144 Hz for gaming enthusiasts. A crisp 32 MP selfie camera nestled in a centered punch-hole is also a highlight.
Turning our attention to the rear, the primary camera setup is rumored to include the same Sony Lytia 700 sensor seen in the ROG Phone 9 Pro. This impressive 50 MP sensor is paired with an “updated” optical image stabilization (OIS) system. Completing the camera trio are a 13 MP ultrawide lens and a 32 MP telephoto lens.
Additional features to entice tech lovers include an IP68 certification for dust and water resistance, a convenient 3.5 mm audio jack, the powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, up to a generous 16 GB of LPDDR5X RAM, and a spacious 512 GB of UFS 4.0 storage. Energizing the device is a robust 5,500 mAh battery, capable of 65 W wired charging and 15 W wireless charging.
While the official price tag remains under wraps, anticipation is high for the Zenfone 12 Ultra, with its promising blend of features and refinement poised to captivate users. Keep your eyes peeled for the February 6 unveiling, where Asus will finally lift the curtain on this eagerly awaited smartphone.
