I wanted a compact phone and had a hard time choosing between this and the Galaxy S23. The reasons why I went with the Zenfone were:1. The bold design. It is a breath of fresh air amid all the similar looking phones. The S23 is boring (personal preference).2. Again a personal preference, but I dislike Samsung's UI and bloatware. The Zenfone is clean, almost stock Android and even makes a couple of welcome changes e.g. option to switch to old Android-style compact toggles for wi-fi etc.3. The S23 has a 3X telephoto lens which this phone lacks. It is not a big deal for me though because I rarely, if ever, feel the need to zoom in 3x or more when using my phone camera. Below 3x zoom, both phones will use the primary sensor and crop the image. Neither phone has ... MoreI wanted a compact phone and had a hard time choosing between this and the Galaxy S23.

Below 3x zoom, both phones will use the primary sensor and crop the image. Neither phone has stellar flagship-grade cameras though which is a shame at this price.4. They are both similarly sized. S23 manages to accommodate a larger screen which is great. The Zenfone, on the other hand, is slightly narrower, and with the 5.9" screen, is better for one-handed use.5. This has 2 years of OS updates vs 4 years on S23 and 4 years of security updates vs 5 years on S23. I honestly don't care about Android version upgrades. The changes are generally small and hardly noticeable. Security updates are important though. However, taking into account the release dates of the two phones, it's only a 6 month difference, so not a deal breaker.6. Zenfone has bigger battery, faster charging, charger included in the box and a headphone jack.Having used this for about a week now, I'm really happy with my decision. The phone is a delight to use. Performance is great and it's very responsive.The camera, mainly the software, could have been better though. The colors lack warmth and there is sometimes a significant shutter lag. Hopefully future updates (or a good Gcam port) will improve things. However, in sharpness and detail, it beats my iPhone 12 hands down.
