Trusted Reviews UK

3/5Feb 6, 2025

Nearly identical to the Zenfone 11 Ultra, with a price rise and AI features that feel underwhelming. Hard to recommend over stronger 2025 flagships.

  • Supports on-device AI processing
  • Highly customisable Android 15 approach
  • Fast charging with regular 65W USB-C charger
  • 144Hz refresh rate for gaming
  • Gimbal stabilisation keeps video smooth
  • Hardware is near-identical to the Zenfone 11 Ultra
  • On-device AI processing can be slow
  • Some notable AI features are missing
  • Only two OS upgrades promised
  • Thick and heavy at 220g

Verdicts, pros and cons are short summaries in our words of each publisher's review; scores are as the publisher gave them. Specs are taken from the reviews' spec boxes — where they differ, we show the value most of them give; price is the US launch price of the base model. Read the originals for the full picture.
