Asus pricing always ridiculous. Pretty sure this one will cost 1.5k at least.
I think it's two different thing. Also, the first smartphone with Dual PD autofocus is Samsung S7. FYI, camera sensor in Redmi note 5 does have Dual PD. You can watch TechTablets video on YouTube on the comparison between S7 & RN5 camera.

Serious?
Kinda attracted to sd636, 5k mah and pure Android features (hopping for wireless charging)
Was willing to pay at most 1.1k (1.2k with wireless charging)
If 1.5k, meh..

Asus said that this phone is gonna be cheaper than redmi note 5 pro..
Here is the leak price at lazada indonesia

Damn.. that price/performance attractive than xiaomi note 5 pro
Macam confirm <1k
If true, xiaomi got some strong competition here
Extra 1k mah with pure Android
Wonder how xiaomi will react, tats if Asus bring it in. And imo, xiaomi reputation in mobile much higher than Asus in msia
Official launch is 25th rite?

Biggest battery for a sd636 phone so far? Most likely won't beat RN5 camera, due to much smaller sensor , no dual pd, no mention of EIS even. But if your main priority is battery, then it is 'the' phone for you.

Got budget phone less than 1k with eis n sd 636?🤔

well, highest spec 4gb @999
lets see how asus retaliate (if enter msia)

my guess
since asus mention it will be cheaper, so
3gb = 699
4gb = 799
6gb = 979

lol..

If you seen past comments they talk about ghost touch in zenfone and also bad laptop warranty repairs. There are threads here and Google about bad Asus after sales service. Where you from may I ask maybe it's different state got issue lol.

Pg n perak, hmm.. both of them still using Zenfone and haven't complain anything since 2017..
B4 using Asus, was using xiaomi redmi 2 I think and man, so damn hard to claim warranty.. screen not responding to touch within a month of usage, sent for warranty, more or less 3 month only return.
Last yr my aunt bought redmi note 4, again within a month screen problem but this time within a month successful rma

I guess xiaomi is improving, and now with physical shop, should be much better
I'm planning to recommend redmi 5 plus to my uncle instead of redmi note 5, since he don't game at all..

It works fine as well for unlocked bootloader. But bank apps might have issues with rooted phones. PBE would give warning and will exit,unable to login. HSBC would give warning and can proceed to login.

Working fine with unlocked bootloader.
Yes, global version is AI edition.

imo as of now, best offer
899 with casing and sp

if not urgent, i think wait for a week or two, price might down
seeing asus max pro m1 quite a competitor at competitive pricing
