Title: Latest ASUS ZenFone 8 leak details three model variants, including a Mini model with a flip-up camera; 3.5 mm jack incoming potentially for all models
Post by: Redaktion on April 30, 2021, 17:31:46
More ZenFone 8 series details have been revealed, and it seems that only the ZenFone 8 Mini will have a flip-up camera. The 5.92-inch device will also have a 4,000 mAh battery and up to 16 GB of RAM. All ZenFone 8 devices should feature a 3.5 mm headphone jack, too.

Slightly amusing to see so much back and forth about the headphone jack, good that it's back in any case, but the battery is probably too small for SD888. Not a sensible design decision.

It's the same as s21. How's it doing?
Well it has an endurance rating of 93 hours. Oneplus 9 Pro has an endurance rating of 86 hours with 4500mah battery. So if optimisation is good, it'll pass.

You could make the same excuse for Pixels that have tiny batteries, it hardly translates to real life usage, and this will probably be a larger device than the S21 which means a larger screen to begin with.

It depends on memory and battery management. Android phones with stock UI like Google and HMD Nokia always excel in battery life despite having a smaller battery than their equivalent rivals with custom UI. For me though, a 4,000mAh battery in a 5.92" body is actually quite impressive.
