Asus has adhered to a stringent release schedule for its smartphone lineup in recent years. The Zenfone series caters to those seeking compact flagships, while the ROG Phone series targets the gaming-oriented crowd with flagship specs and larger screens. The anticipation is high for the imminent launch of the Zenfone 11, and this time around, there are indications that Asus might introduce a larger-screen variant of its flagship.
A recent leak, uncovered by Reddit user Td3v1l while examining the latest ROG 8 firmware update, provides an initial glimpse of the Zenfone 11 Ultra. The leak includes renders, featuring the retail packaging box and a detailed spec sheet.
As the name suggests, the Zenfone 11 Ultra is poised to be a larger iteration of the standard Zenfone 11, sharing a striking resemblance to the design of the ROG 8 Pro. With this release, Asus may adopt a different strategy, aiming for a broader audience by offering a more understated and mainstream design compared to the ROG Phone 8 series.
According to the leaked spec sheet, the Zenfone 11 Ultra will largely share key specifications with the ROG Phone 8/8 Pro, except for a slightly lower 144Hz screen refresh rate compared to the ROG Phone 8’s 165Hz.
Under the hood, the Zenfone 11 Ultra will feature Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, coupled with 16GB LPDDR5X RAM and 512GB UFS 4.0 storage. The device boasts a 6.78-inch AMOLED LTPO display with a resolution of 1,080 x 2,400 pixels and a punch-hole cutout housing a 32MP front-facing camera. The leaked specs also reveal a camera setup similar to its predecessor, featuring a 50MP main IMX890 sensor, a 32MP telephoto with 3x optical zoom, and a 13MP ultrawide lens.
Powering the device is a 5,500 mAh battery, supporting 65W wired charging and 15W wireless charging. The Zenfone 11 Ultra will be available in a variety of colors, including Eternal Black, Skyline Blue, Misty Gray, Verdure Green, and Desert Sienna.
