Asus Zenfone 12 Ultra Launches with AI Features and Gaming DNA

The new flagship phone offers advanced AI capabilities, a gimbal-stabilized camera, and a large battery but won't be available in the US at launch.

The Asus Zenfone 12 Ultra features a Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, enabling AI-powered tools like document summarization, real-time transcription, and voice clarity enhancements.
Its 6.78-inch AMOLED display supports a 120Hz refresh rate (144Hz for gaming) but has a 1080p resolution, which is lower than some competitors at this price point.
The rear camera setup includes a 50-megapixel main sensor with six-axis gimbal stabilization, a 32MP telephoto lens, and a 13MP ultrawide lens, alongside a 32MP front camera for selfies.
The phone includes a 5,500mAh battery with 65W wired and 15W wireless charging, offering over 26 hours of usage, and supports eSIM and WiFi 7 connectivity.
Priced at €1,099, the Zenfone 12 Ultra will be available in Europe, Taiwan, and Hong Kong, with no confirmed release plans for the US or UK.
