The new model upgrades to a Snapdragon 8 Elite and improves the gimbal stabilization in the main camera, but still only promises 2 OS updates.

The Asus Zenfone 12 Ultra is set to release with a triple-camera setup on the back, featuring a 50MP wide camera, a 32MP telephoto, and a 12MP ultrawide. The hole-punch camera on the front is a 32MP wide lens capable of recording up to 1080p video at 30fps, while the rear cameras can reach up to 8K at 24fps.

The newest Zenfone borrows cool features from the Asus ROG gaming phone line like fast charging and wired headphone support -- but it's not coming to the US.
