A Taiwanese news outlet reports that Asus plans to shutter its ZenFone division altogether. The resources will instead be reallocated to the ROG Phone department via internal restructuring. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Asus-ZenFone-10-could-be-the-last-of-its-kind.744211.0.html
It's great to see ASUS still committed to the Zenfone line. However, I do think that ASUS should make a midrange-tier Zenfone Lite. There are a lot of people who still want compact-sized phones but not flagship-tier SoCs. Even the Snapdragon 778G is still good enough for average consumers' daily use.
