Asus had been launching a slew of smartphones under the ZenFone 3 series this year. We’ve already seen ZenFone 3, ZenFone 3 Deluxe, ZenFone 3 Ultra, ZenFone 3 Laser and the latest device to join the series is the Asus ZenFone 3 Max (ZC553KL). First showcased at the IFA Berlin this year, the ZenFone 3 Max is aimed to overcome one of the most common issues of smartphones. Yes, you guessed it right, battery life it is.

The smartphone comes in two size variants — a 5.2-inch and 5.5-inch variant. We’ve been using the latter model as our daily driver for a while now and here’s what we think about it. Before we get into the details, lets take a quick look at the device’s specifications.
The ZenFone 3 Max has a 5.5-inch Full HD display (also available in 5.2-inch display size) with a 2.5D contoured glass atop. At the heart of the device is a 1.4GHz octa-core Snapdragon 430 chipset paired with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage space (which is expandable up to 128GB via a microSD card).
