A large 5000 mAh battery and dual rear cameras – that’s what the ASUS Zenfone 4 Max is all about. The Max is the first member of the Zenfone 4 line up that ASUS Philippines has revealed. Unlike the Zenfone 3 Zoom, which follows the dual normal field of view (FOV) and zoom camera of the iPhone 7 Plus, the dual camera Zenfone 4 Max follows the dual normal FOV and secondary 120-degree wide angle camera on the LG G5 and G6. No official pricing yet on the Max, but the full specs are below. The ASUS Zenfone 4 Series will launch on August 19.

Just a few more things:

  • The dual mic with good noise cancellation found on the Zenfone Live finds its way into the Zenfone 4 Max. (Check out our review of the Zenfone Live here.)
  • This is the first midrange phone from ASUS to feature dual cameras. The dual camera approach follows that of the LG G5 and G6.
  • When you Google up “ASUS Zenfone 4”, you may still see the 4-inch screen budget phone of the same name that ASUS launched in 2014. It’s highly likely the same will happen next year when ASUS launches the Zenfone 5, which has the same name as a phone the same company launched years ago. Naming convention matters, it seems.
