Amazing Camera, features you need and more!
The Asus Zenfone Zoom 3 has dual Sony lens and 12x zoom. I love the pics I take with this phone. The battery is amazing, so it's a plus when using the camera. Additionally, the dual sims and the Zen UI interface are intuitive and attractive. I intend to keep this phone for a very long time. The price and the features make is it the best Smartphone out there as compared to the expensive prices of the other phones, Not to mention that Zenfone 3 zoom has dual sims, encrypted, and fingerprint sensor. The Geek Squad warranty is the best available. I am highly satisfied with customer service inside the store, online and on the phone.

Great Camera, Battery Life
This phone is a great value. It thrives more than what it lacks. As others have mentioned, it has superior battery life. Why don't we see this kind of tech in phones like Samsung and Apple? We all know why. For a 5000mAh battery, this thing lasts me three days on a single charge. The camera is really good too. Bringing quality pictures to mid-range phones is a plus and a delight. Does well in low-light, but nothing to write home about. The thing that made this phone lose a star is the bloated software. It has so much going on in the background, it's impossible to watch a video and enjoy it whether it's played locally or on YouTube, NetFlix, etc. The UI lags behind the audio. I think another thing I would have liked to see is the ability to put a custom ROM on there. The ZenUI is so bloated and I like having minimal things on there. Overall a great phone that you don't have to plug in every night, I took it with me to the Philippines and it was awesome and it worked very well. Would I consider buying another one? Perhaps.

Great phone. Huge battery life.
The Asus Zenfone 3 Zoom is an awesome phone with 3 outstanding features and 1 niggling problem. First, the niggling problem - the phone is slippery....the sides and rear are extremely smooth and slippery. Very easy to drop the phone. I ordered a leather case to hopefully solve that issue. The outstanding features... 1. FANTASTIC battery life! I'm getting more than TWO DAYS of battery life with medium use corporate use - emails, calendar, some browsing, many calls, Uber, Maps/Satnav and camera use. It has the biggest battery of any phone on the market yet is still slim and light - amazing! 2. The fingerprint reader on the back is AWESOME! I unlocks the phone almost instantly, so no more pin code entries, and it even works with many apps...simply touch the conveniently placed fingerprint scanner on the rear of the phone and you're in...no more remembering passwords etc! It works brilliantly and very fast. 3. The camera has two lenses, a wide-angle, fast lens for normal shots which work well in the dark and an optical 2.3x telephoto lens for longer distance work. The camera is optically stabilized and even features PDAF focussing for very fast focus. I highly recommend this phone. It's far better than any iPhone for corporate use, IMHO, and better than any comparably sized Android that I've ever tried. If you want a phone for primarily games and videos on a huge screen, then get one of the common phablets instead. This is a phone for serious use.

Great phone for a great price.
This phone does exactly what it says it will do. It gives you awesome battery life, a smooth app usage experience and a decent camera. All this for 30% of the cost of an iPhone X. I picked up an iPad and a nice point and shoot camera with my "savings". :-)

good camera for its price
The cellphone it is not a good looking one. the camera is pretty good, the size screen just perfect, the sound super good, there is a lot of room to improve sound it needs 2 speakers. The quality screen better than other ones special when it is a super mode picture is set .Battery last a little more than 24 hours, Asus has amazing upgrade work it does it faster than other ones. For the price I DO recommend it on top of any other range price phone .One more thing it is very slippery from your hands be very carefully..
