Meet the new Asus Zenfone 10!

Asus has recently released its latest compact smartphone, the Asus Zenfone 10 on June 29, 2023. With a 5.9-inch display similar to its predecessor the Zenfone 9, it is much more comfortable to use in one hand compared to other high-end phones with displays approaching 7 inches in size. The Zenfone 10 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, backed up by a 4,300 mAh battery. The battery life of this smartphone won’t leave you disappointed, with a standby time of about 10 days and overnight battery loss of only about 1-2%. With 30W fast charging, you can charge the phone to 50% in half an hour! This incredible phone is priced at €799, which was the same starting price as the Zenfone 9. Asus has chosen to make this model available in black, blue, green, red, and white so you can match your style. The camera system of this latest Zenfone truly makes it stand out, especially for content creators. It has a dual-camera setup on the back, which includes a 50-megapixel main camera with a Sony IMX766 sensor, f/1.9 aperture, multi-directional PDAF, and gimbal OIS, and a 13-megapixel ultrawide camera. The main camera has a six-axis gimbal stabilizer system that encompasses the entire camera module. Gimbals are devices designed to keep a camera or other imaging device steady and stable while capturing footage. The "six-axis" refers to the number of axes or directions in which the gimbal can move to stabilize the camera. These additional axes allow the gimbal to compensate for more complex movements and vibrations, resulting in smoother and more stabilized footage. By utilizing motors and sensors, a six-axis gimbal stabilizer system can detect and counteract unwanted camera movements in multiple directions simultaneously. This helps eliminate shaky footage caused by hand movements, walking, or other external factors, resulting in professional-looking and stable video recordings. If you are the proud owner of the previous model, the Zenfone 9 we encourage you to check out all the parts for your device on our site, such as its amazing camera as well.
