ASUS has introduced the Zenfone 10, a compact smartphone measuring 5.9 inches, redefining the standards for smaller mobile devices.



In this new era, Zenfone 10 combines power with a compact design, demonstrating that smaller can also mean better. Its performance is driven by the flagship Snapdragon® 8 Gen 2 Mobile Platform, featuring the latest LPDDR5X memory and UFS 4.0 ROM technologies, offering exceptional capabilities. Astonishingly, the battery life has been extended by nearly 13% without any increase in battery capacity. Furthermore, Zenfone 10 includes the convenience of Qi-compatible wireless charging.

Zenfone 10's advanced 144 Hz AMOLED display delivers vibrant colors under any circumstances, while collaborating with leading visual-processing company Pixelworks® to further enhance the visuals.

The camera system on Zenfone 10 has undergone significant enhancements, incorporating the latest 6-Axis Hybrid Gimbal Stabilizer 2.0 and new algorithms to ensure incredibly stable videos. Additionally, it introduces an Adaptive EIS electronic image stabilization system and OZO Audio-powered 3D surround-sound recording capabilities for the next level of mobile video experience. Selfie capabilities have also been dramatically improved, featuring a 32 MP front camera equipped with an RGBW sensor and large 1.4 μm pixels, resulting in outstanding low-light image capture.

Zenfone 10 incorporates advanced AI features, providing an elevated user experience through intelligent UI tweaks and camera functionalities, making interactions intuitive and effortless.

This stylish device comes in five refreshing colors, including three new shades inspired by the harmonizing colors of the cosmos. It is also designed with sustainability in mind, utilizing eco-friendly bio-based polycarbonate materials and increased recyclable packaging.

The Mighty Zenfone 10: Compact and Powerful
Breaking the tradition of choosing between compactness and power, the remarkable Zenfone 10 offers both.

Designed for effortless one-handed operation, Zenfone 10 is powered by the flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 Mobile Platform and boasts high-performance LPDDR5X 8533 Mbps RAM and USF 4.0 ROM technology. Users no longer have to compromise when selecting a phone that perfectly fits in their hand. With Snapdragon Elite Gaming™ features, Zenfone 10 provides exceptional mobile gaming capabilities and seamless multitasking to overcome any challenge.

Zenfone 10's advanced 144Hz AMOLED display ensures incredible Delta E <1 color accuracy, ultra-smooth scrolling, and wide 151.9% sRGB and cinema-grade 112% DCI-P3 color gamuts, offering vibrant colors in any environment. Collaborating with leading visual-processing company Pixelworks, Zenfone 10 achieves world-leading color accuracy.

Zenfone 10 showcases its style with three new cosmos-inspired colors: Aurora Green, Eclipse Red, and Comet White, in addition to the popular Starry Blue and Midnight Black.

The second-generation 6-Axis Hybrid Gimbal Stabilizer 2.0 in the 50 MP rear camera keeps videos even more blur-free and shake-free, even when the camera is moving. This innovative gimbal OIS monitors Zenfone 10's every movement, in every direction, and uses that information to adjust the whole camera module in real time. It can compensate for shifts of up to +/- 3 °, so it can help smooth out even the wildest action, without optical distortion or 'ghosting'. Combined with the ultrafast autofocus technology — which focuses quickly and reacts smoothly to changes — and hardware anti-shake EIS algorithms, Zenfone 10 delivers super-smooth, professional-looking action shots, whatever the subject.

Adding to 6-Axis Hybrid Gimbal Stabilizer 2.0's superior anti-shake capabilities is its new Adaptive EIS technology. This uses the built-in gyro to detect movement, allowing dynamic adjustments to the size of the field of view to keep videos rock-steady at all times.

OZO Audio technology gives users the choice of eliminating wind noise for crystal-clear outdoor recordings, or capturing immersive, high-fidelity 3D Surround spatial audio.

The photography experience has been further improved with the ability to access the Light Trail mode and Quick Shot functions even when the phone's screen is turned off. Quick Shot is a new feature that allows users to capture a photo instantly with a double-press of the volume key.

Selfies, on hand: 32 MP front camera with RGBW sensor
The upgraded 32 MP front camera on Zenfone 10 now features an RGBW sensor with large 1.4 μm pixels, giving the camera exceptional low-light performance. White pixels are added to the traditional RGB pixels, improving the overall image quality when capturing images in a dim environment. The advanced night scene algorithms help to deliver night-vision-grade selfies. When taking selfies at night or indoors with Zenfone 10, the foreground subjects have a natural skin tone, clear contours, and well-defined light and shadows. The background lighting and detail is also fully preserved.

Other camera modes have also been enhanced. Portrait mode has been upgraded with more flexible zoom options, and Light Trail mode now lets users capture professional-grade photos handheld, with no need for a tripod.

Endurance, on hand: Improved battery life, new charging options
Using power-efficient CPU and components, we've improved Zenfone 10's battery life by up to 12.9%, even though it has the same 4300 mAh battery capacity as its predecessor.

We've also added a new 30 W HyperCharge capability for maximum charging performance, and for convenience Zenfone 10 now also supports wireless charging via any Qi-compatible wireless charger.

Compared to previous Zenfone 9 model, using heavy-loading benchmark. Test data provided by ASUS labs, actual performance may vary according to usage and environment.

The wireless charging technology of Zenfone 10 has a maximum power of 15W and is compatible with the Qi EPP standard. When using wireless charging on Zenfone 10, please ensure that the wireless charging has obtained Qi EPP certification, and the charger supports the QC 2.0 standard to achieve optimal charging speed. The charging speed may be influenced by various factors, such as usage during charging, battery state of health, environmental temperature, or compatibility of charging equipment. Therefore, the actual charging speed may vary and could be slower.
The 144 Hz refresh rate can only be enabled in Game Genie while playing mobile games.
