Archive.org versionThe lack of NFC lets the phone down but if this isn’t important to you then the combination of large screen, amazing battery life and stock Android Oreo should be enough for you to consider if you want to spend as little as possible on a smartphone.

Model: The Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 ZB602KL is under the most popular series of smartphones ASUS has ever produced, and for very good reasons. They are mid-range smartphones with good performance and an incredible battery life. Featuring a massive 5000 mAh battery, the latest midrange Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 processor, pure or stock Android and more, this new disruptive device could shake the foundations of the value market. Going for a metal body much like the previous ZenFone Max Plus M1, the ASUS ZenFone Max Pro M1 features a 5.99-inch Full HD+ display. Because the bezels are very slim, this results in a tall and slim device that fits quite comfortably one handed. The matte back is a bit slippery though, so a user might want to slap on the extra value bundled casing. Turning on the device, a user is introduced with the super crisp 5.99″ display with FHD+ resolution. The display is very beautiful. In fact, it doesn’t look like this device even belongs in the tier it says it is. The Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1 is the only device in its class with a 1,500:1 contrast ratio. 450 nits brightness and 404 PPI pixel density do additional justice in delivering the vivid finishing. On the front of the screen, there are no more physical capacitive buttons, instead, the navigation keys swipe up. Also on the front is an 8 MP front camera while a rear fingerprint sensor is on the back, with no stretch required. The ZenFone Max Pro M1 still packs in a 3.5 mm audio jack but still offers a micro-USB port on the bottom.
On the back in the top left corner, there is a slightly raised dual rear camera hump, 13 MP for this version (16 MP for the higher-end versions) with the second 5 MP camera sensor taking the depth effect or Bokeh (a blurry background effect) data. There are no gaps in the build and the smartphone feels solidly built. It's a nice design, but it probably won’t turn heads a second time though. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 clocked at 1.8 GHz bears 4 performance cores and 4 power saving cores constructed around 14 nm lithography which used to be something that was once hogged by the high-end smartphone devices. If a user is just a couple of generations behind, this will be a massive upgrade without burning user’s pockets, that’s for sure. Overall, Asus has done a very good job with the Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1, offering an affordable yet midrange device dedicated to long-lasting performance and gaming. The ZenFone Max Pro M1 won’t turn heads or take excellent photos but the big battery and price tag make it a great new entry-level device for the new Asus ZenFones, setting the bar high for other entry-level devices.

This display is quite big for a smartphone but frequently used for smartphones.
Large display-sizes allow higher resolutions. So, details like letters are bigger. On the other hand, the power consumption is lower with small screen diagonals and the devices are smaller, more lightweight and cheaper.

Only few smartphones are more lightweight than this.

In the notebook sector, Asus had a global market share of about 11% from 2014-2016, making it the fourth largest laptop manufacturer. In the smartphone sector, Asus is not among the Top 5 and has only a small market share (as of 2016).
84.57%: This rating should be considered to be average. This is because the proportion of notebooks which have a higher rating is approximately equal to the proportion which have a lower rating.
