Nice thread.

F the notch and rear fingerprint sensor.

Prefer front sensor.

if u want front fingerprint sensor, you'll not get full view display

If like this, will stick with Moto Z family. Because of the mods, fingerprint sensor must be either in front or side.

in-display fingerprint sensor coming real soon

2018 buzz word = AI + face unlock....

2019 buzz word = under-screen fingerprint sensor + AMOLED

All AMOLED screen will be the 2019 "trademark" due to under-screen fingerprint sensor.... finally, Xiaomi will move to AMOLED tech....


Hypothetically:
2020 buzz word = above 95% screen-to-body ratio + Mix Reality tech...
2021 buzz word = foldable display + Grabat graphene batteries
2022 buzz word = uBeam over the air charging...

Too long to wait

Thanks bro.

Its not 10am yet but Preorder is up on Lazada page.

Too bad no black, otherwise preorder as well

Maybe try to check again at evening or night. Because there are 1 case for Max Pro M1, the preorder unit is black. But some member manage to get the silver color when he preorder at night time. Im not sure if it legit or listing/advertising error.

Pre order only one color?

July only can get, they got to be kidding
They seemed like trying to push the responsibility to lazada, lazada is just an online shopping platform, they can only start selling once they got stock in hand, aren't they?
Asus response like lazada is the one who slow thing down...
