    I have had it in my possession for about a month and a half now, and I ended up choosing this because it is the only option for its small form factor. I chose the version with 512GB storage and 16GB RAM to have peace of mind in terms of storage space (photos, videos, etc.) without relying on Google Photos and other cloud services.

    Its battery is the highlight, as despite its size, it easily lasts a full day with heavy usage, and with light usage, I end up with 50-60% battery in the evening. Of course, with the Snapdragon, it doesn't lag anywhere. Its camera is very good, especially the video with its amazing stabilization. In low-light shots, you need to lower the brightness a bit because it tends to overexpose in night sight, but this applies to many phones. I have set the screen to be permanently at 120Hz because in auto mode, it frequently lowers it, and you can notice it in scrolling.

    I should also mention that I used to use the Xiaomi Mi9T Pro, which I kept alive with custom ROMs, and it easily lasted me 4 years. The only reason I changed it was because its battery didn't last at all. And somewhere here, I should mention the only negative, which is not an issue with the device itself but with Asus, as they stopped supporting the tool that allows you to unlock the device's bootloader and therefore install custom ROMs on the Zenfone. So, we rely solely on the 4 years of security updates provided by Asus.

    Regarding the Wi-Fi calling that someone mentioned, you can enable it on many phones and with any provider using Shizuku and Pixel IMS. Google it for instructions.

    Overall, I am very satisfied with the purchase.

    Very good speaker set for upgrading the mama sound system. I have installed them in the back of an Opel Astra Gtc along with the front split speakers of the same series, and the sound quality has improved a lot, even with the mama source. During the installation, I also added dynamat to cover the holes in the metal sheets, creating a cabin for better bass performance. Very worth it for their price, I recommend them...
